'''Sherlock Holmes''' (usually assisted by his trusty sidekick '''Dr. John Watson''') is an infamous character created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who appears not only in many novels and short stories by Conan-Doyle himself, but also in many different homages, spin-offs and stand-alone works because all of the original works of Conan Doyle featuring the character fell into public domain (which even makes possible not giving any credit for Conan-Doyle). Sherlock Holmes is generally considered as one of the most important staples of mystery genre (if not the most important). He is also often considered one of the first modern superhero archetype predecessors.
