Cases of Sherlock Holmes #1

Adapting Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories in unabridged comic form, this handsome volume opens with a cover that sets the mood perfectly — two figures in Victorian dress, one in a distinctive checked cape and deerstalker, the other gripping a revolver, both alert against a warm, atmospheric backdrop. Dan Day's painted artwork gives the duo a grounded, period-authentic feel that suits Doyle's world well. At $8.95 in 1989, this was a generous package for anyone eager to follow the world's greatest detective through the page in a fresh visual format.
