What an odd hybrid this comic is! Sherlock Holmes is basically pasted into traditional crime stories, either as narrator or fringe participant. But they don't seem to have been cut-and-pasted. What strange editorial thought brought this about?

Picked this up from random 12 I agree with the comment from Crash – a bizarre use of the Sherlock Holmes persona, linked to random (though well drawn) ‘true crime’ (yeah, right) stories. I can only imagine it was a vain attempt to cash in on the movies and radio series popular at the time. My favourite story was the last one – Death at the Opera

We all agree - it's a crazy mess! Not least of which is the cover. Why is the woman in green so HUGE? She is a good 20% larger than the other, and the event depicted doesn't seem to appear anywhere in the comic. The first story is especially nonsensical and absurd. In both Holmes stories he sometimes begins a sentence in the narration box and continues it into a speech balloon, something I have never seen before! This is a true gem of perplexity.

Well, for mine, the way the lady in Green on the cover is holding that shoe looks really awkward and wrong.
