Timeless Creations: The Legacy of Characters in Fiction

Corrupt adults from Ikebukuro

We dive into the phenomenon of characters like Sherlock Holmes who transcend time and continue to exist in the public's imagination, even when their creators try to move on. How does an artist create something that becomes bigger than themselves?

We also discuss how Sir Arthur Conan Doyle grew tired of Sherlock Holmes, attempted to kill him off, and was pressured to bring him back. We explore similar cases of timeless characters in fiction, from Conan Doyle's lesser-known creations to pulp fiction heroes that shaped modern-day superheroes like Superman and Batman.

The conversation touches on how different eras of storytelling have evolved, from early pulp fiction to modern superheroes, and what it means for a creation to endure through generations.
