Sherlock Holmes's War of the Worlds
- Sherlock Holmes's War of the Worlds
"Sherlock Holmes's War of the Worlds" is a sequel to "The War of the Worlds", written by Manly Wade Wellman and his son Wade Wellman, and published in 1975. It was inspired by a viewing of "A Study in Terror".
The story consists of the tales of Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, and Professor Challenger in London during the Martian invasion.
It wasn't the last time the great detective would face the menace from Mars, as the theme was later explored in "Sherlock Holmes In The Case Of The Missing Martian", a 1990 comic book by Doug Murray. [http://www.war-ofthe-worlds.co.uk/sherlock_missing_martian.htm]
