🤔 Now at the useless-shit stage of my day. Monk would win almost all tournaments except for actual magical cases tournament which Dirk Gently would win.

I’d frankly want a Dirk Gently vs Elijah Bailey final, for a final mystery set in a universe where... you don’t know upfront if it’s a regular, fantasy, or sci-fi universe 😎

In case it isn’t clear, this is only detectives I’ve read/watched. If they’re not on the list I likely haven’t read any. Missed another favorite: Harley Quinn/Mr. Satterwaithe, who might be my favorite Christie pair. Only 1 short story collection y=though, and no novels.

Quinn would be closest Christie came to inventing Dirk Gently type ontological detective. He’s quasi-fantasy. The solutions are never magical, but the detection process has some magical nudging.
