Indeed. I take it that [personal profile] starfishstar isn't familiar with those two 'verses, but they are very different. Kurland's Moriarty is a well-mannered scientist and gentleman, his stories told in a sly, understated style, whereas Newman's Moriarty is grotesque to the point of being cartoonish, the stories themselves a farcical mirrorverse of canon.

That said, I've made worse errors than that while matching. And I did do the matching while hopped up on benadryl. Who knows what Alice-in-Wonderland match-ups I might have thought sensible?
