Sherlock Holmes (disambiguation)
Sherlock Holmes (usually assisted by his trusty sidekick Dr. John Watson) is an famous 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.
Listed on this page are numerous works of fiction based and/or including a character of Sherlock Holmes or supporting characters like Watson, Holmes arch-enemy Professor Moriarty, Police Inspectors Lestrade and Gregson and a landlord Mrs. Hudson.
