I might have spent my time productively the last couple of days mainlining the manga version of Moriarty the Patriot, a Sherlock Holmes retelling with Moriarty as the, well, deeply fucked up villain protagonist with good intentions.

Also a very nice Sherlock Holmes.

I think this might be one of my favourite Sherlock Holmes stories (and not just because Sherlock and Moriarty are friends and won't stop flirting as long as they are in the same room). I mean, the creators have a pretty odd perspective on some parts of Victorian England, and the whole thing is mixed with just a dash of James Bond (a very nice version of James, who gets a prototype automobile at one point and does not wreck it), but hey? It's manga, it should be a little weird.

Of course, now I am left sadly scratching at the language barrier because the two latest chapters haven't been translated yet.
