Verse: Sherlock BBC

Author's summary: This is page 1 of a BBC Sherlock fandom fancomic I've been doing for months. It goes into print once it's done. (About 16 pages?) I'm on page 6 and 7 right now. Story is planned out though I may extend it a page or two for a nice epilogue.)


Reccer's comments: Alas, this fragment of what would have almost certainly been a spectacular h/c fancomic is long abandoned. The artist has been deleting their fannish material in some locations, so I'd suggest downloading* this unfinished gem for your own private enjoyment.

Not only do I love the composition of the panels (note the wonderful rhythm of the panels on p. 6-7) and the richly-colored character designs (based on S1), I positively adore the IC dialogue. I suspect pennies-4-eyes aka Elfkin either lives/has lived in the UK, for they seem quite familiar with speech patterns and local slang. See especially the conversation between John and Greg over the phone on page six. Dialog-wise I've not seen a better Sherlock fancomic; as for the art, it is also among the very best fancomics created for this fandom.

* = I'm assuming this is OK because that option has been left on the dA pages.
