A Case of Blind Fear

This black-and-white limited series by writer Martin Powell and artist Seppo Makinen is a worthy sequel to the excellent Scarlet In Gaslight, which brought detective Sherlock Holmes into conflict with Count Dracula. Here, Victorian-era Londoners are reporting mysterious, floating objects and apparitions with visible internal organs, and baffled officials at Scotland Yard have brought in super-sleuth Holmes to get to the bottom of these strange sightings. As it turns out, Holmes is in a battle of wits with none other than Hawley Griffin, the title character of H.G. Wells’s The Invisible Man. But what is Griffin’s connection with the Holmes’s partner, Dr. Watson? Curiouser and curiouser, eh?
