The artist is referring to the real Arsène Lupin pre-WWI. LeBlanc did write a novel where his hero and Holmes square off, but it's kinda easy to claim a victory when you are using someone else's character.
Rather dry to modern tastes, but not half as dry as Poe's fiction.

You mean Arsène Lupin vs. Herlock Sholmes. Sir Conan Doyle defended Holmes' reputation with the power of copyright law.
Ah... Riko, she appeared early, lol how could I forget that.
I felt this LN series lost its way when it tried to one-up Raildex. I liked it better when it was more down-to-earth John Woo x James Bond x Die Hard with school students, and fully embrace the campiness of such settings.
大淀 HeadSo who won in the end?Is that so?Hmm? Uhh...And France is Arsene Lupin... People do get impressions like this, yes?England is Sherlock Holmes.I have the feeling that there's a story where the two of them have a showdown against each other.It's been quite a long time since I've read it after all.If I recall correctly, Holmes should be the victor...And you would be wrong!In the climax of that novel, Arsene Lupin emerged with a magnificent victory!What are you talking about? Holmes couldn't possibly lose to some French scoundrel!Oh. but he did lose! An English cocaine addict of a detective is simply no match for Lupin~Who was it in the end, really....?Which one...
