Summary
Do you like the League of Extraordinary Gentleman but wished it took place in 1920s New York City with a slightly different cast of characters including Victor Frankenstein, his creation, and Gatsby and Nick from The Great Gatsby? Well then, you've come to the right place! Kind of. This is actually pretty different, but saying it's similar is a pretty good hook, eh? So here's the gist:
Dr. Jekyll lives in New York City with German teen, Victor Frankenstein (yes, he's explicitly German in this). Along with them are their slightly strange creations, Hyde and Adam. Gatsby and Nick are married, but not officially because it's the 1920s. Griffin and Dorian Grey are staying with Gatsby and Nick, and they are all good buddies. Hyde gets into trouble, and Jekyll and Victor go and apologize. Later, the members of the Gatsby mansion (permanent and temporary) meet Adam and Captain Nemo. And then shenanigans ensue.
It's a comedy story, but there are some serious parts to it. There are also some non graphic depictions of injury and technically body horror (Thanks, Hyde!).
