Discovered your Sherlock Holmes posts three days days ago, bookmarked them all, and just finished reading through them. Amazing stuff, thank you for making it!

Them being gay in the Blanched soldier is so obvious I can't believe I didn't think of it before! it makes the whole story make more sense.

I’m over here sitting in the corner looking at the last panel and chanting: “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Your mouths are quite literally twenty-something pixels apart!”

the panel with Dodd saying lots of things about Godfrey is all from the text; so is the last panel with all the mentions that Holmes made about Watson in the story ("an ideal helpmate" especially kills me because that was synonymous with 'wife' at the time); the longer comic is all original.
