I recently reviewed Sherlock Holmes #5 and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "'The Trial of Sherlock Holmes' finally gets to the actual trial as Holmes is charged with murdering a man in a locked room in a house guarded by police officers. It looks like there’s no possible way that Holmes is innocent and, yet, Moore and Reppion do a good job of setting things up so that no one actually believes he is guilty. Like the readers, everyone in the comic seems to think that the trial will allow Holmes to prove his innocence and solve the mystery in a very public and dramatic fashion. How he explains his innocence is what this issue revolves around and, while a little long-winded, it is intricate and fits with everything that’s come before."You can read the rest HERE!
