“Dynamite’s Sherlock Holmes launch and story is reminiscent of the their publishing of The Lone Ranger. Taking a classic character, making him accessible for today’s fans and giving him new life.

2. This engaging mystery forces you to quickly turn page after page as you ‘race the clock’ along with Sherlock Holmes.
