About the series
In this French series from Delcourt, writer Pierre Veys and artist Nicolas Barral reimagine Sherlock Holmes as a bumbling, accident-prone detective whose legendary deductions are actually the work of his long-suffering assistant, Watson. Running for five issues between 1999 and 2008, Baker Street is a lighthearted, comedic take on the classic characters, playing with the conventions of the Victorian-era mystery genre. Its charm lies in its playful inversion of the Holmes mythos, offering a fresh and humorous perspective on a well-worn literary partnership.
