Allan Quatermain

Restless in the English countryside after their adventure in Africa (as told in King Solomon’s Mines), Allan Quatermain, Captain Good, and Sir Henry Curtis decide to return there, in search of an unknown people rumored to exist isolated in the depths of the continent. Assisted by the courageous and steadfast Zulu warrior Umslopogaas through a series of conflicts with the fierce Maasai and other deadly hazards, the intrepid group’s discovery surpasses each member’s wildest dreams. The hero of the first volume of the graphic novel series The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill is based on Allan Quatermain. H. R. Haggard is known as one of the founders of the "lost world" genre and he spares no effort in vividly creating for readers an exciting adventure in an exotic land.
