Sherlock Holmes Behind the Scenes, pt 15 (Patreon)

Sorry, I got tied up with other projects and forgot about this! I'm days behind, but we're close to the end, enjoy!

Doc.

Dialogue:

(Note: I left two frames blank because it's Packrat monologing, and my right thumb had gone numb, making drawing difficult. I did the last four pages in reverse. I am also not 100% sure I like Moriarty's speech here. May need some work.)

Text:

(Moriarty holding Holmes and Mrs. Hudson at gunpoint. He had the gun in his clothes. He has his back to the door.)

Moriarty: You call yourself "The Great Detective!" HAH! I shot your loyal friend Watson DAYS ago and took his place--AND YOU NEVER NOTICED! Even after I shot you! Yes, it was I, I who killed Professor Partington and took the plans for his fabulous invention! I hid them here, but you never gave me a moment alone, dragging me here and there--I was on the cusp of getting you out of the way so I could abscond with the plans, and you would lay the blame on Watson on the word of that trollop, Kitty Winters--but THIS meddling old shrew had to spoil my escape! Well, now BOTH of you will join your stupid friend Watson--

(The door behind him creeps open. In the last frame, Mary Morstan steps out from behind the door and clobbers Moriarty with a blackjack. He drops the pistol.)
