Here's what people have said about Sherlock Holmes And The Empire Builders The Gene Genie Vol.1
“When you think there is nothing more to be said or done with Sherlock Holmes, along come Meadows and Bennett to breathe fresh life into the great detective. Bravo! I’m thoroughly enjoying this original tale!” - Michael Moorcock, fantasy legend
‘Drawing from the wonderful classic that is Sherlock Holmes, Joel Meadows and Tripwire have once again delivered an electrifying story in a dynamically driven comic spread’.
Richard Taylor, Wētā Workshop
“As a lifelong Sherlock Holmes devotee I'm very happy to add this to my collection of the master of 221 B Baker street’s adventures!
Meadows and Bennett have accomplished a small(but important!) miracle in capturing the spirit and mystery of Conan Doyle's Holmes in their great imagining in this new story with the eccentric and brilliant private consulting detective.
Meadows has written a tale full of mystery and he draws you in with his mastery of the detective tale.
Bennett’s art is just wonderful as it has all the atmosphere a Holmes tale would require and yet has a fresh approach and graphic charm that makes this an instant classic.
If you love Holmes you will love this, if you are new to Sherlock Holmes you could have no better introduction.” – Kelley Jones, artist Batman
"Holmes. Watson. Dark conspiracies. And, of course, mysteries to be solved. Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders promises to be an intriguing twist on the classic Doyle stories, in the hands of two enthusiastic and capable creators."—J.M. DeMatteis, Justice League, Moonshadow
“The game is indeed afoot! It's no small feat to take on the works of Conan Doyle, and yet Joel and Andy had done a neat job of it. Holmes feels quite like the
Sherlock we know and love -- except he's found himself out of his element. Meanwhile, like every great heroic story, there's a villain who... well, you'll just have to read it for yourself. Gorgeous artwork by Andy that captures the mood and the spirit of Joel's page turner. Enjoy it all! “ - Jeph Loeb, writer, Batman The Long Halloween, producer, Daredevil TV show, Jessica Jones TV show
“Joel Meadows and Andy Bennett have delivered a rare treat for fans of Sherlock Holmes - tantalising new stories that stay true to the tone and aesthetic of the canon.” -Frank Quitely
