message: A point on wording: Arsène Lupin contre Herlock Sholmès was written by LeBlanc, so while "Herlock Sholmès" was, in that work, a pastiche character. I also don't believe Lupin was renamed (no sources, just that he was already LeBlanc's character.)
Is this a relevant enough topic for English speakers to incorporate more information from the French page? If so, I could translate. Thanks,

replies: text: I took a look at it and I agree. The old page had very good bio information that was simply deleted. It should have just been rewritten in less of an in-universe style, with citations of which stories the information came from. --Tysto (talk) 05:21, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I wonder if Inspector Cluso of the Pink Panther comedies is a parody of Arsene Lupin, particularly the Lupin in the Teeth of the Tiger novel. (Tiger > Panther?)

:You could actually make a case for the original Pink Panther movie being a parody of or homage to Lupin, as David Niven's character in the original film (and who was originally intended to be the protagonist of the series before Sellers's Clouseau stole the show) is a very Lupinesque character, and a French inspector who was every bit as humorously self-important and incompetent as Clouseau (though not as clumsy) appeared in the 1908 Arsene Lupin four-act play and hence the Jepson/Leblanc Arsene Lupin novel.
:Interestingly enough, the Lupin III franchise turned right around and homaged the Pink Panther, in a way; the Jazz music by Ono Yuji shows a lot of influence by Mancini, the composer of the original Pink Panther score. --Robotech_Master 12:22, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

message: In the version of l'Aiguille Creuse that I read, he was called Holmlock Shears... something that changed as time went by? Leushenko 00:28, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe originally he was simply Sherlock Holmes, but the name was changed when Conan Doyle objected. I don't have citable proof, however, so it can't really be incorporated into the article. --Robotech_Master 12:17, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That is correct. But if a good citation can be found it should be added. And there are recent English translations of Arsene Lupin vs Herlock Scholmes (including the stage play of the same name) and The Hollow Needle where Holmes' name has been changed back to Sherlock Holmes since both the stories are in Public Domain (at least in America). They are quite good translations too.

message: Well I met many manga in which the gentleman thief sent a message to the police before each robbery. Is this method from the Arséne Lupin story?

message: Gutenberg includes two Arsene Lupin novels under the titles "Woman of Mystery" and "Arsene Lupin". Anyone know what the original French titles were for these two volumes? Justin Bacon (talk) 06:22, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  It seems this book is the work of Jepson alone.  The text of the play does not even appear to be available in French at all, never mind a novelisation.  Mezigue (talk) 22:52, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Alternate English Titles / Gutenberg Texts

message: I know of no textual reference for this, but isn't it at least a logical conjecture that the name Arsène Lupin might be derived from the similar-sounding father (or at any rate adoptive guardian) of virtually all fictional detectives, Poe's hero Auguste Dupin?

message: Why no reference to Lupin III, the Japanese anime? - it's a popular anime about his grandson.
: There is a section in the article that refers to the Japanese anime. Though such derivative works are probably trivial at best. Mediatech492 (talk) 16:02, 3 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I would disagree that the derivative works (referring to Lupin III) are "trivial at best"; this is a manga series with literally hundreds of chapters, running since 1965, multiple television series, seven feature-length anime films, two live-action films, and twenty-three video games.
