Thanks to everyone who has helped to make 2009 such a great year for us both personally and professionally. Here’s hoping a good few people will be opening Moore & Reppion books this Christmas morning.

To help get you in the festive mood please enjoy this fantastic 1948 US radio presentation of that Chistmassy Holmes tale The Blue Carbuncle.

Yes, the collected edition of our five issue Dynamite Entertainment series The Trial of Sherlock Holmes is available now.

The book is crammed with extras such as scripts, artwork, an afterword by world renowned Holmes and Dracula scholar Leslie S. Klinger, an original Conan Doyle Holmes tale – The Devil’s Foot – illustrated by Aaron Campbell and lots more.

Surely an ideal Xmas present for that special Sherlockian in anyone’s life?

Still not convinced? Then please feel free to cast your critical eye over the first nine pages of our little tale.

At last it’s here! The concluding issue of The Trial of Sherlock Holmes arrives in shops across the globe this week. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Mr. Aaron Campbell on the series (the extra little bits he’s done for the collected edition are fantastic too) and we really  hope we’ll get to write for him again very soon. Maybe another Holmes story?

We’ve got a few preview pages to show you but, as always, they are a bit spoiler-ish so please don’t read unless you’re already up to date with the issues.

We can’t wait to hear what everyone thinks of the grand finale.

EDIT: Some great reviews coming in already. They are pretty spoilerific however so, again, please don’t read unless you’ve already read the issue.

For some reason we had no idea that issue 4 of The Trial of Sherlock Holmes (wonderfully rendered by Mr. Aaron Campbell) was out in the USA & Canada today (UK & Europe tomorrow) – I suppose we’ve been a bit busy lately with one thing and another.

Anyway, as usual, we’ve got some preview pages to show you just to whet your appetite but do be warned that they contain spoilers.

The first page also contains references to some unsolved  Holmes cases as alluded to by Doyle. Can you spot them all?

Don’t forget to let us know what you think of the issue, and the series, over on our Forum.
