BAKER
STREET
Written by Guy Davis & Gary Reed, Illustrated
by Guy Davis
Baker Street, the center of
England's punk movement in a London few would ever know, a life even less would ever see.
Where being different is the rule, "ratting" the gambling vice of a city's
underground, and death is often around the next corner. Here is where mystery, intrigue
and suspense are more than a game to the residents of post Victorian London, it's a way of
life. Baker Street, the name conjures up many images, mainly of Victorian London and the
home of Sherlock Holmes.
 You won't find Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's sleuths here, just some
similarities yet a little bit more. A Sherlockian adventure
set in an alternative but present day London. An England where World War
II never happened and the Victorian era is resurrected into present day
values. All of which only is the backdrop of the mysteries
and a setting to clash with London's punk subculture.
