SHERLOCK HOLMES OMNIBUS V. 1 RECOPILA LOS NUEVOS CÓMICS DE DYNAMITE

Para los que, como un servidor, no hayan tenido ocasión de agenciarse los nuevos cómics de Sherlock Homes, esta nueva serie recopila en un solo volumen las tres mejores miniseries publicadas por la editorial.


The Trial of Sherlock Holmes y The Liverpool Demon vienen firmadas por el duo Leah Moore/John Reppion.


Mientras que Year One tiene el gran aval de Scott Beatty, que tan añorados resultados obtuvo en su día contando los orígenes de Robin y Batgirl.


Suponemos que, si la cosa funciona, futuros volúmenes recopilarán las siguientes miniseries.

Una magnífica noticia que demuestra la buena salud de los cómics sherlockianos.

LEAH MOORE HABLA MÁS SOBRE DEJAH THORIS & IRENE ADLER

Well both characters are quite well heeled, Dejah being a Princess, and Irene an Opera Prima Donna turned adventuress, but Victorian London is a far cry from Barsoom. When i was researching the story, i found out that Barsoomian children learn about Earth from an early age, because they have the technology to study us from afar.

Also she is married to John Carter, who has filled her in on ‘Jasoomian’ life a bit, but no Barsoomian has ever been to Earth itself, so London is a big shock to the system. its cold, and wet, and people seem quite rude to her. Luckily, you dont get to be Princess of Mars by being timid and retiring. She is undaunted, and is soon putting London in its place!



I think both woman are keenly aware that in order to achieve some goals, you have to get your hands dirty, you can’t sit and wait for the world to change for the better, you have to get in amongst it and be the change you want to see. That is something i think the whole of the Swords of Sorrow event really resonates with.

The women in SOS are not there to lay down the law, or to enforce a whole raft of rules on anybody, they are much too busy fighting their own fights, and figuring out the moral path as they go. Adler is a fixer, and has the power to take a case or turn it down. Dejah is a Princess with a whole world to lead. Both women use their own moral compass to do this. neither of them answers to anybody. I think at first their personalities will clash, but maybe they’ll figure out their common interests?

I think people might assume Dejah is empty headed and whose sole purpose is to decorate Mars. This is not the case in my series, or in the previous Dynamite Dejah series. I think also, they are missing the point. In comics, just as in movies or gaming, women are so two dimensionally represented, and so disproportionately under-used as creative talent, that this event is a massive step in the right direction for comics.
