Legendary artist Frank Miller opened a noir opus in Sin City. This critically acclaimed triumph – honored by both an Eisner Award and the prestigious National Cartoonists’ Award – combines the pulp intensity of writers like Spillane and Cain with the gritty graphic storytelling that only Miller can deliver. Sin City is the place – tough as leather and dry as tinder. Love is the fuel, and the now-infamous character Marv has the match … not to mention a “condition.” He’s gunning after Goldie’s killer, so it’s time to watch this town burn!
It’s one of those hot nights, dry and windless. The kind that makes people do sweaty, secret things. Dwight’s thinking of all the ways he’s screwed up and what he’d give for one clear chance to wipe the slate clean, to dig his way out of the numb gray hell that is his life. And he’d give anything. Just to cut loose. Just to feel the fire. One more time.
Criminals have always called the shots in Sin City, whether bootleggers, gamblers, or politicians. But ever since the first dame set up shop in Old Town, those side-streets have been run by the women who walk the night. It’s been a delicate truce, but now there’s a messy body and the mob’s looking to reclaim those licentious streets. They’re going to have to put down a tight band of dangerous women and a guy named Dwight to do it. Now Dwight, he knows something that the mob’s gotta learn the hard way: sometimes standing up for your friends means killing a whole lot of people…
Just one hour to go. Hartigan’s polishing his badge and working himself up to kissing it goodbye, it and the thirty-odd years of protecting and serving, tears, blood, and triumph that it represents. He’s thinking about his wife’s smile, about the thick, fat steaks she’s picked up at the butcher’s, about the bottle of champagne she’s got packed in ice, about sleeping in till ten in the morning and spending sunny afternoons flat on his back. But with one hour left to go, he gets word about that one loose end he hasn’t tied up: a young girl who’s helpless in the hands of a drooling lunatic. Just one hour to go … and Hartigan’s gonna go out with a bang.
Marking a departure for Miller from an entire career of serialized stories, this 128-page epic spilled out of him all at once…and you can’t help but read it the same way! Family Values is a milestone among Miller’s work, allowing him enough room to tell this classic story of grit and revenge exactly the way he wanted to. With deadly Miho running on roller-blades, Dwight running on adrenaline, and the Sin City mob on clean-up detail, this yarn from the Town Without Pity is not to be missed.
The most diverse volume of Sin City material available, Booze, Broads, & Bullets showcases Frank Miller’s vignettes and color experiments from throughout the years of his groundbreaking crime series, and includes art created especially for the original collection. A good entry point for new readers wondering what Sin City is all about-or longtime readers who can’t get enough-Miller has painted a gritty, decadent, and gloriously dirty portrait. Have a taste of the city…just one little taste. Just one.
In the Town Without Pity, good men are hard to find. Enter Wallace, a man of mystery. He’s a nice guy who’s very good at killing people. Out for an evening drive along the beach, he meets the woman of his dreams-and she’s trying to kill herself. Why? And who are the shadowy cabal of power brokers who wrench her from his arms? When will all hell break loose? Comics legend Frank Miller, creator of the groundbreaking Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, pounds out his longest S in City graphic novel to date-a bare-knuckle barrage of brutal action, dark secrets, and heroic sacrifice. What the hell-it’s a love story! The most recent story in Miller’s gritty crime saga, Hell and Back includes color sections and pinups by a who’s who of comics luminaries.
