The original Lupin stories were entitled "Arsene Lupin: Gentleman Thief,"written in the early 1900's by the French author, Maurice LeBlanc. Some of these stories have been translated into English, and have been printed by Penguin Books. Arsene Lupin was the underworld's version of Sherlock Holmes. All of his exploits are related to a reporter, who then repeats them in his newspaper articles.
