Me encanta el estilo de dibujo, pero puedo entender a quienes no les gusta como ha sido ilustrado John. Hay algo de su esencia que no se muestra en las ilustraciones. En general es muy entretenido y hermoso de ver y leer. La forma en la que Sherlock es dibujo simplemente me encanta

Alright. He doesn't know it yet, but Benedict Cumberbatch is indeed my husband.
BBC Sherlock is indeed one of my favorite shows ever.
To be able to hold both of those things (from one of my favorite episodes, no less!) in Manga form? My heart is screaming with glee. The art is perfection, the flow of the frames was not confusing in the least bit, I may have fan-girled a bit on some of the pages but that is to be determined at a later date. I may have "started" reading this on the 11th, but I really just blew through it all here in the last half an hour at work. Now I just need BookOutlet to get their hands on the other episodes so I can dump the entirety of my stimulus check into their coffers.

Disclaimer: A physical copy of the book was provided via Bloomsbury India in exchange for an honest review. The Thoughts, opinions & feelings expressed in the review are therefore, my own.

BBC’s Sherlock Holmes is one of my all – time favourite series – I loved the adaption better than any other one’s; and while it is partly because of Benedict Cumberbatch; it was also because the way the series has been handled has had me glued to my TV, and exactly how I imagined my Sherlock to be.  

Manga is the kind of graphic comic, I have been slowly falling in love with, ever since I was introduced to it – and I just couldn’t resist requesting a review copy when Bloomsbury India announced these editions. 

The Great Game is one of my all – time favorite episodes – for it finally unmasks Moriarity – and this episode has been beautifully illustrated in manga form in this edition – if you are a fan of either of these (Manga and BBC Series: Sherlock); then these editions are absolutely perfect for you – not only as an introduction to the Sherlock Series (if you haven’t already watched it!) but also if you have never tried Manga; then use your love for Sherlock to get your introduction to it and I promise you will not be disappointed.

Auch hier haben wir mal wieder nur die Nachahmung der Serie, zwar gut umgesetzt, aber nichts neues. Das Drama kam nicht so gut rüber finde ich. Ansonsten sah Jim auch irgendwie nicht so verrückt-sexy aus wie in real.

Two stars solely because it’s Sherlock.
The finale of series 1 is action packed and the viewer like Sherlock and John doesn’t get time to breathe.
That’s what is lost in the Manga sadly...and what’s up with Moriarty? His face looks wrong
