The illustrious Lord Bellinger, twice Premier of Britain and the Right Honourable Trelawney Hope, Secretary for European Affairs, visited Sherlock Holmes because Mr Hope lost an important document.
'I have come to you, Mr Holmes,' she said, 'because you once enabled my employer, Mrs Cecil Forrester, to unravel a little domestic complication. She was much impressed by your kindness and skill.'
In 1893 After seeing the magnificent Reichenbach Falls in the northern Swiss Alps Conan Doyle decided the place would make a worthy tomb for Sherlock Holmes.The Final Problem was published in Dec 1893 in The Strand magazine. People were so upset that many thousands cancelled their subscription to the magazine.In 1901-02 Sherlock Holmes reappeared in the novel 'The Hound of the Baskervilles.' However its clear that Holmes was not alive. This story took place before the incident at Reichenbach Falls.The short story The Adventure of the Empty House in the book "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" published in Oct 1903 saw the re-appearance of Sherlock Holmes and the description of how he had disappeared.
In The Adventure of the Silver Blaze (SILV), Sherlock Holmes says something about the curious incident of the dog in the night time. What was curious was that the dog didn't bark as it would at an intruder it didn't know. It didn't bark because the person it saw was one it knew well.
He could indeed be expressive. Remember him grinning more and more as that guy called him a busy-body among other things? However, if you mean "made into a cartoon", then, certainly. Check out Sherlock Holmes cartoons, Sherlock Hound (anime), Sherlock in the 22nd century and others. There are also animated characters very much like him. Jimmy Kudo/Conan Edogawa, L of Death Note and The Great Mouse Detective (Disney) based on the children's book series Basil of Baker Street come to mind.
