Last month, Titan Comics announced it would be bringing the delightfully weird manga adaptation of the BBC’s smash hit Sherlock to the west for the very first time, four years after it debuted in Japan. Want a peek? io9 has a first look at the translation, as well as the variant covers for the manga’s first issue.
Drawn and written by the manga artist Jay, the series adapts the first episode of Sherlock,
“A Study in Pink,” but with the added bonus of the delightful wonderful
manga-style faces of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman as
Sherlock and Watson. Beats rewatching the series again and again while
you wait a lifetime for new episodes!
Each issue of the comic will be oversized and feature bonus covers by
a variety of artists, to make up for the fact that fan translations of
the manga have been floating around the internet for years since it was
first released through Young Ace magazine in Japan. Check out
the variant covers for issue one below, as well as two pages from the
first issue—depicting Watson meeting Mrs. Hudson and arriving at 221B
Baker street for the first time. Click the magnifying glass in the top
left corner of the image to enlarge, and remember, it’s a manga, so read
from right to left!
