Robert Downey Jr. is done with his time in the MCU, and I'm going to guess there won't be a sequel to Doctor Dolittle any time soon. I'm hoping his freed up schedule gives him time to join Jude Law for a third outing as Sherlock Holmes. I've read that there is some interest in making another film, but I haven't seen anything definite about it yet. Hopefully, that will change soon - The success of the Knives Out movies show that audiences are still ready to embrace a well written mystery.
I didn't even know there had been a KNIVES OUT 2! If it came out in theaters, it mustn't have done well at the box office. At least, not in the NW Corner of Connecticut. It certainly never came to my hometown multiplex. And, if it was made-for-pay cable TV or streaming Internet...well, the less said, the better.
ReplyDeleteRe: today's cover. Interesting title! Are you, perhaps, referring to the different Moriartys so often mentioned in the Wold Newton Universe?
Best tbing aboust the Ross-verse is your being able to blend as you want.even those that wouldn't be thought about.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea all the way around.
If Michael Holt is (per his own claim) the third smartest man in the world, and Reed Richards (per Multiverse of Madness) the first, and those two tidbits hold fast in the STFU, Sherlock Holmes is a good candidate for filling the slot between. If he is, then Holt has his work cut out for him.
ReplyDeleteanother great, great cover crossover, as was yesterday's also....
ReplyDeletehow do you continue to create such original artistic gems????
where did today's London street art come from????
loved yesterday's HPL inspired background as well....
to Rob Greenslade _
ReplyDeleteI think that in DC the sequence was supposed to be Lex Luthor at first, and Bruce Wayne at second.
Who else here remembers Batman meeting Sherlock Holmes in a canonical DC story (with no time-travel involved)?
Detective Comics Number 500. With Sherlock revealing he had secretly retired to somewhere in the Himalayas (probably Nanda Parbat) where he lived extra-long off a diet of royal jelly.
ReplyDeletethat would be Detective Comics #572 where the Batman meets Sherlock Holmes.....
ReplyDeleteJack-El's right. Detective Comics #572 was celebrating the 50th anniversary of the publication of Detective Comics v. 1/#1. The meat of the matter, you might say. It also being the 545th appearance of Batman was merely gravy.
ReplyDeleteIf this had been Detective Chimp and Mr. Fantastic, would the title have been "The Monkeyarty Paradox?"
ReplyDelete@Carycomic: no. Just plain NO (thank God)!
