Comic book authors Luc Brunschwig and Cecil, or their alter egos, follow Dr. Watson on the trail of Sherlock Holmes. They want to uncover the true identity of the man hiding behind the famous detective's name.

Sherlock Holmes is dead. He perished at the Reichenbach Falls during a duel with his arch-nemesis, Professor Moriarty, leaving a farewell letter for Dr. Watson. But what if everything happened differently? Where did the detective's life lead after his companion got married? Why didn't he involve Watson in the most important case of his career—the elimination of the criminal mastermind—much sooner? And did Moriarty even exist? Why did Watson describe Holmes's final, fateful adventure with a two-year delay? These are the questions Luc Brunschwig explores in this comic, first published in 2006.
