Can deduce a great deal from just looking at a person.
Holmes' creator based the character on a doctor.
His name sounds like "Homes"
Sherlock Holmes fought deadly criminals
Used cocaine to escape boredom
Holmes calls even his best friend by his last name
Arrogant. Said humility would be a lie
Read the agony columns in the paper
Languid and lazy when not on a case.
His closest friend had problems with a wound in his leg (although initially, the wound was in his shoulder)
Music is very important to Holmes and he plays the violin.
Aloof, although less so with his only friend and roommate.
Sherlock Holmes lives at 221B Baker St.
Gregory House, MD

Uses Vicodin for pain in his leg. And maybe for boredom.

In #207 "Hunting" we discover House lives at 221B ? we see the number as House and Wilson leave in the morning (but we don't know the street). See a screen caption of the address clearly visible behind Wilson as he leaves House's home.
