Overall a very fun graphic novel with the world’s greatest detective and magician. I was expecting Sherlock and Houdini to be adversaries in the book rather than frenemies. And Rasputin as the villain… ehhh didn’t do it for.
The artwork is well done and fits the time period. I did find that Houdini and Sherlock were very similar visually so that I couldn’t tell them apart. But they did have good banter.
