In 1891 Sherlock Holmes faced Professor Moriarty at Reichenbach Falls, and the two arch-enemies died together there. Holmes was dead to the world until his miraculous return three years later. Holmes scholars have speculated for over a century about the "Great Hiatus" and the untold story of those three lost years. GASLIGHT tells that story.Some sample panels from the first volume of the Gaslight series: Gaslight: An Unkindness of Ravens
