The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen/Funny

Comics

• The entirety of 'What Ho, Gods of the Abyss', a short story in Black Dossier. PG Wodehouse meets H.P. Lovecraft. Funny on its own. For Wodehouse fans? Hilarious.
  • Fans of Lovecraft will get a kick out of Bertie casually name dropping "Cool Lulu", which he believes to be an old Native American enjoying a long retirement at "Riley."
• Also, the Ingsoc-approved Tijuana Bible in the same book. Technically, it should be horrifyingly disgusting, but somehow, the sheer ridiculousness of the thing makes it funny as hell.
• Hyde singing while he approaches the Tripod. Jess Nevins, who catalogues all the references, says that he wants the original piece of artwork for that six-panel sequence.
  • To make it even funnier, the song he sings ("You Should See Me Dance the Polka") comes from the 1940 adaptation of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with Spencer Tracy.
• Every time you suddenly get the subtle nods to famous pop culture icons - like suddenly realizing that "The New Traveler's Almanac" has a cryptic nod towards The Big Lebowski, or recognizing that Alan Moore manages to quote Barney Fife in The Black Dossier.
• Orlando cock-blocking Adam Adamant in Century 1969 by bragging about his Arthurian days.
• Mina and Quartermain having sex in the forest. Mina seems to be getting into it...but then it turns out she's actually screaming because killer human-animal hybrids are lurching towards them.

Film

• Skinner takes advantage of his invisibility to sneak up on the League and pinch Mina's butt. Once she realizes who did it and where he's standing, she slaps his unseen face.

Skinner: Ooooh...Mina.

• • "You are to be clothed at ALL TIME!!" - it's funny in context.
    • "Hello my freaky darlings."
• This exchange:

M: So I set my wolf upon you sheep. Gray: (*sniffs*) Growl.
