I suppose you're referring to Moore's "League of Extraordinary 
Gentlemen," though I think he's doing something like he did in 
"Watchmen" -- a deconstruction of the world of heroic pulp fiction by 
putting all these characters into the same world and letting realistic 
consequences flow from that. He's not trying to re-create those 
characters exactly as they were in the novels, but to do something new 
with them.
