Sherlock Holmes



Sherlock Holmes 2:  A Game of Shadows comes out this Friday December 16.  It's not a movie I would go nuts over, but it seems epic enough for my friends to go crazy over.

As I clicked refresh for my twitter account, I found something very interesting.



Apparently there is (going to be?) a manga version of Sherlock Holmes.  I have to say, this is definitely intriguing.  The manga was created by Toya Ataka.  I don't know very much about this manga because it's hard to find info on it.  I heard about it from Deb Aoki's article "JManga Offers Free 'Sherlock Holmes' Manga to New Subscribers".  JManga gives a taste of the manga by previewing it.

Why haven't I heard about this before????

...not sure actually.

The preview is only the first couple of pages of the manga, so I can't say much.  I do have to admit, the art and drawing style is absolutely fantastic.  I'm not sure if this manga will be a major disappointment or major joygasm for Sherlock Holmes' fans, but it's definitely something different.
