edited February 2015 in The Wolf Among Us

Bigby commenting on how he's met Mr Holmes and thinks he's "a cokehead pain in the ass" was priceless! XD

    Bigby said he was "a cokehead pain in the ass."

    Nevertheless, I found it hilarious myself. XD

  • I just changed it!! XD

    Yes, Sherlock was a user of opium as he claimed it helped with his deductions... Watson would sometimes find him in opium dens :P

    (I love the old Sherlock stories you see)

  • They would be unstoppable!

    But Bigby doesn't do partners or sidekicks (safe for Snow of course) and he just said he thinks Holmes is a pain in the ass :P

    I think I saw something about that, since I remember seeing him holding a cigarette (or whatever they used to call them during those times).

    By the way, (possible) misleading title? I bet Sherlock was just a normal Mundy that Bigby had met in his lifetime, not a Fable. :S

  • Sherlock smoked a pipe :)

    Sherlock was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle... he wasn't a real person :P

    (Conan Doyle based Sherlock on himself in some ways though, like how Ian Fleming described James Bond to look like he did)

    That too, but I swear I saw him hold a joint at one point. (then again, it was probably from the Sherlock Holmes video game trailer I saw a few years ago)

    He might as well have been a real person/Mundy (since this is still the world of Fables we're technically talking about here) - where anything (probably including fictional Mundies) can exist. :P

    Very interesting though, very interesting indeed!

  • In Fairest Beast sayed he was once Sherlock Holmes

  • If noticed a number of inconsistencies throughout the whole Fables/TWAU series:

    • Beast can change into a Beast in Fairest Volume 4 despite passing that power to his daughter Bliss when she was born
    • Bigby saying he has met Holmes and Beast taking up the mantle of Holmes aren't necessarily contradictions though... Beast could have assumed the identity briefly, I mean Beast really doesn't seem like Detective material :P
    • Colin in TWAU mentioning 2 films that weren't even around when TWAU is set

    It's all mismatched :P
