COMICS: Preview of Moriarty Volume 2
At last count, I think there are a few dozen different Sherlock Holmes adaptations floating around in pop culture. There’s, of course, the immensely famous portrayal of the detective by Robert Downey Jr., Benedict Cumberbatch’s much loved version on the BBC, and quite a few more that have piled up throughout the past century. Well, last year Image Comics introduced us to a different side of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s much beloved Victorian myths, the much darker tale of Holmes’s nemesis Professor Moriarty. The series has snowballed into a bit of a phenomenon, and for good reason. It’s a terrific read and a particularly gritty story, even for Image.
We’ve got our hands on a preview on Moriarty Volume 2 in TP form, so check it out below…
