Today we have an interesting item in the misc section of the Howard Ostrom Collection. 

Issue One of "Watson and Holmes" - a comic book signed by the writer Karl Bollers and the artist Rick Leonardi.

Watson and Holmes started its life as a kick-starter project that our Howard Ostrom personally donated too (and was given a special thanks mention as you can see below).

It follows the adventures of an African-American rendition of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. 


The comic book series was also touched upon in Howard's excellent essay series "Voices In Darkness" which took a look at the past, present and future of African-American Holmes and Watsons across various medians. 
 
For more Holmes and Watsons of slightly unusual genres be sure to check out the rest of the Howard Ostrom Collections Misc Section here.
