Title: DS Cartoon by Sherlock
Post by: Joeytrom on September 10, 2011, 04:37:24 PM

I have been trying to find a cartoon that once appeared in a few fanzines in the 80's by a cartoonist named Sherlock.

It was captioned "Deja Vu" and had the Collins family watching television, supposedly Dark Shadows.

Is there a collection of his work?

Actually, "Sherlock" is a lady.  BTW, that cartoon appeared in an old issue of "The World of Dark Shadows", around the time of the '91 series.

I *might* have that cartoon. I definitely have some TWODS issues from around the time of the '91 Series. I'll look when I get the chance later tonight...

Unfortunately it's not in any of the issues I have from TWODS. But i wonder if it could have also been printed in Inside The Old House? I have more ITOH issues than TWODS, so I'll look them them when I get the chance. They're stored in a totally different spot than TWODS issues...

A number of Sherlock's drawings were also used in Wyndcliffe Watch, edited by May Sutherland, back in the 1990s.  I used to have a complete set. But I don't recall the drawing you mention, unfortunately.

You could try contacting her--some of the fans on this board who have been around for awhile might have info.

I remember that cartoon and could probably find it the next time I'm at my parents' house, which would most likely be this weekend.  If I find it, I'll scan it and post it here.
