Watson and Holmes Returns in Mutiny Magazine

SherlockComics.Com on the I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere Podcast

I was thrilled to be invited to talk about my history with comics and specifically Sherlock Holmes in Comics on the latest episode of the I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere podcast. We also talk about how I became a Sherlock fan, this year’s 221B Con, why I started the site, whether Sherlock is a superhero, and what I’ll be talking about this weekend at the DePaul Pop Culture Conference, “A Celebration of Sherlock Holmes”.
