I am not sure how I feel about this

They are issuing copies of Arthur Conan Doyle's Holmes stories with covers which are from Sherlock.

ETA - OMG - Martin Freeman wrote an intro for one of them...my consternation grows apace.

Well, see, that was my first instinct. I mean it has SHERLOCK written across the top of the cover and the boys huge as life. It took me a while to figure out what was really going on.

And my real argument is that if the show makes someone want to read the ACD canon, that's absolutely terrific, but they're going to do it no matter what the covers look like.
