Holmes fan or not, give this book a go, it's an Indie title that will undoubtedly get more attention as it goes on. Rest assured this is not a gimmicky book that only has its concept going for it, what we have here a showcase of good writing and art driven by smart ideas. A good detective book that does not tag itself to another genre or uses fantasy elements is hard to find in comics and if it's a good one it deserves attention. Watson & Holmes is a good one.

The artwork ofWatson and Holmes is very, very good, in fact I'd say it was down right amazing. The use of lighting and shadow in this comic is simply stunning, creating a beautifully realistic tone and color to the scenes, this is one of the few comics that incorporates light sources and changes into the artwork, scenes in direct sunlight have this golden warmth as opposed to the sterile artificial glow of electric light, really quality stuff. The only complaint I might level is that the mystery is a bit unwieldy and overly complex around the middle but by the end the answers are simple enough to still be satisfying. Watson and Holmes is a freshly original new take on the old characters that makes this comic well worth picking up. Read Full Review
