A really enjoyable focus on bishounen Sherlock/Watson. ( )

I cannot get over these unique plot twists and planning. This series is brilliant and I can hardly wait to see the chess game between Sherlock and Moriarty. Who will reach checkmate first in the battle of wits? ( )

Enquanto a tendência para eliminar a máfia de drogas cresce dentro do Exército, Albert fica sabendo da criação de uma agência secreta especial. William foi sequestrado assim que chega a Londres! Finalmente Moriarty dá início ao seu brilhante "teatro do crime" para exterminar o mal que planeja se instalar no reino!!

In volume 2 of Moriarty the Patriot, the game is afoot! The manga starts introducing Sherlock and John in the first case, A Study in Scarlet, and catches up a bit more with those two than completely focusing on the Moriarty brothers.

In my review of the first volume I stated how this manga is portraying Moriarty as more of a vigilante or anti-hero, paving the road to hell with his good intentions. It’s interesting to see how the Mr.Know-it-all Mycroft is seeing everything either black or white, but Sherlock seems to be seeing a few shades of grey. Maybe we’ll get a bit of a friends-to-enemies trope in the future for this series? I can also hope. I enjoy seeing new ways of getting Moriarty and Sherlock interacting together.

As much as I love Sherlock, I also hope this story will still mainly focus on Moriarty, his brothers, and their growing network.

Overall it’s a great second volume and a great introduction for the rivals! ( )
