Anyone else read these? I finished the first two recently. If you can deal with the 19th century racism/sexism/everythingism, they're pretty fun.

I know of him because of the movie The League of Extraordinary Gentleman. He was that guy who could use his hand pistol like a sniper rifle.

Pretty sure that without that sexily sexually repressed aging man, Indiana Jones would never have been thought up. Plus the books themselves make fun of 19th century-isms

I have the desire to own that shirt from Amazing Super Powers that has the fellow riding a Penny Farthing and it says "Not a crime" on it.
