Description My new team of characters, this time set in a 1900s time period:

The Leader - Jack Skellington (armed with all of his video game arsenal, his pirate garb, and the Beacon of Souls) I also gave him the power of a banshee's scream, for as you might recall: "No animal nor man can scream like I can..."

Macbeth (Gargoyles)
Presto (One of my favorite Pixar shorts)
J. Thaddeus Toad
Katherine Plumber (Newsies, the Musical)

Initial inspirations are of course The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, but I also got some ideas from the various incarnations of Doctor Who and his companions (incidentally, I am NOT a fan. I just watched the Blockbuster Buster's honest review and that was enough for me).

That's because the pirate captain essentially is Jack.

Technically, it's from the Haunted Mansion video game.

OK. I've never read MacBeth or remember Gargoyles much. but I sure he isn't from the Victorian era!

I actually created this league to take place in the early 1900s and as StormyWolf has already stated, the Macbeth from Gargoyles is an immortal.

In the Gargoyles show he was immortal, so technically speaking he was alive during the time period
