  The late 1980s produced a number of groundbreaking, compelling books. Most are still revered today, notably WATCHMEN and DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. But nipping at their heels is another important, though generally overlooked, work - BAKER STREET. Davis and Reed give us just enough of the story at one time, wisely doling out more details only when we're ready - or when they'll deliver the most shocking of surprises. BAKER STREET is full of compelling characters with rich, well-reasoned backgrounds, and I dare you not to care for them deeply after a few chapters. ---Doug Giffin, Digital Webbing. For full review.

  Honour Among Punks: The Complete Baker Street Graphic Novel is a fascinating take on the Sherlock Holmes mythos. Not just cool, it is extremely well done. Guy Davis and Gary Reed are smart. ...If you like mysteries, if you like Sherlock Holmes type tales, you'll find yourself fascinated by this interpretation. ---Cindy Lynn Speer, SF Site.  for full review

  The writing works well, managing to deceive the reader on more than one occasion without it coming across as false and with the reader being given all the correct information. If anything the writing can be a little too dense, but that pays dividends for readers who read the whole thing rather than skim reading. ---Millarworld.        For full review

  This is one of the finest stories of weird alternative history ever done and also a refreshing take on Sherlock Holmes. Ok, it's a comic, but Davis and Reed produced a book that appeals to fans of mystery, fantasy and rock music at the same time. ---Madscience

  The Baker Street series of comix takes place in an "alternate" London. World War II never happened, and the Victorian Era has carried over into the present. Baker Street--made famous by Sherlock Holmes--is the center of England's radical youth movement, meaning that this comic is inhabited by an odd hybrid--neovictorian punks.  The plot is suspenseful, and the characters are fully fleshed out and believable. ---Russ Kirk, Outposts 2.  for full review.

  Take two guys with a love of Sherlock Holmes mysteries. One of them has made major inroads into the comics business, creating several series and founding Caliber Comics (Gary Reed). The other is a raw, extremely talented artist who needs a major break, and who sports a mighty, spiky mohawk (Guy Davis).  Reed...is able to inject interrelationships into the Baker Street series -- giving everything a context of backroom politics, hiding your hand as much as showing it, and understanding the importance of masking personal reverberations in order to conduct business. Davis, with his atmospheric, sometimes almost etched-ink style, supplies the menace, strangled relationships and camaraderie on the tip of a time bomb that is the punk scene in this series.  This book is complex and rewarding. Recommended. ---Epionions.

  This is a grand re-telling of the seemingly ageless story of Holmes and Watson, this time from a punk perspective. The artwork is edgy (yeah, I know; but it is) and the story a grand piece of work. Sherlockians everywhere must buy this, but be warned: it ain't your father's Holmes.---Randall Barnhart.  Five Stars.

  The mysteries presented in Honour Among Punks are well thought-out and should please any mystery fan, especially fans of Sherlock Holmes. But these stories are so much more than mysteries. They give us a fond glimpse into the punk scene and let us see past the spiked hair, mascara and leather. Honour Among Punks is a beautiful book about ugly people. But they're people that we come to love and care about as we get to know them. And because of that, the book still resonates and succeeds 14 years after the stories it collects were first published.---Comic World News. for full review

  The plots of the mysteries in HONOUR AMONG PUNKS are occasionally tricky to follow (it's sometimes necessary to double back and reread earlier parts to keep all the characters straight), but it's never a dull read.- Zack Smith, Ninthart. For full review

  Guy Davis and Gary Reed really make Sharon's fine intelligence believable, something that can be difficult in a mystery. There's definitely a strong Sherlock Holmes air about her, but at the same time she's got her own unique traits and character points that make her someone in her own right. Even Sam, who gets the least screen time of the three, is a fascinating character to read about, and the twists and turns she's put through should enthrall even the most jaded reader.  Greg McElhatton- icomics. for full review.

  No matter how you look at it, Honour Among Punks is a fantastic value for your money... it's a pretty solid brick of a graphic novel with great production values. It is also a pretty darn good read, featuring early work from artistic talent Guy Davis and former Caliber head honcho and writer Gary Reed. And Reed's stories feature some twisted, intricate mysteries that ably blend the punk and Victorian sensibilities of the whole thing. ---Randy Lander, Snap Judgment.  For full review.

  "Baker Street" by Gary Reed and Guy Davis was a tremendous read.. Firstly, I could stare at Guy Davis' art for days...Guy's artwork just gets more interesting the more cluttered and hectic it looks. I'd feel bad if I didn't toss a few words of praise about Gary Reed's story as well. It was an engrossing read, a well-plotted whodunit of sorts. ---Clay Holio. For full review
