When asked about how what it was like pair up with Janet on this collaborative project, writer Daniel Corey responded:

“I am so happy to be working with Janet on this. She has such a distinct style, an amazing attention to detail, and I think that she is giving the audience something original and unique in the way she interprets these characters.  The Professor himself would be pleased, I’m sure.”

MORIARTY: THE JADE SERPENT is a DangerKatt digital publication, and is a direct continuation of the Image Comics series.  It is written by Daniel Corey, with art by Janet Lee, letters by Dave Lanphear, and features character designs by original series artist Anthony Diecidue.
