I am overwhelmed getting Sherlock Holmes here. Although, I think these are not the original stories. Any plan of uploading the original story comics of Holmes?

By the way, thanks a lot!

You are right.  These are not the original stories.  Matter of fact, I have read all of the original stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and enjoyed them immensely.  These are even set totally out of time.  Most of the pastiches are set in the 1880s and 1890s the way Dole wrote the originals.   The only reset Holmes stories I enjoy starred Basil Rathbone in the late 1930s and 1940s.  I tried one or two 0f the  new Tv series and couldn't stand it.  The best adaptations for me were the Jeremy Britt episodes fom England.   Dell did two (I believe) issues of a very good adaption in the 4-Color series.  See if you can locate them in the Dell 4-Color section on this site and see the difference
