Product Description
Rejoin the grim and gritty world of Sin City with this second installment of Frank Miller's beautifully rendered black and white crime noir tale. It's one of those hot nights, dry and windless. The kind that makes people do sweaty, secret things. Dwight's thinking of all they 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 grey hell that is his life. And he'd give anything. Just to cut loose. Just to feel the fire. One more time...and then Ava calls. This 'mature readers' collection features violence, nudity and swearing

My opinion it was cracking!,
This review is from: Sin City: Dame to Kill for (Paperback)
Good day to everyone who has decided to read my review!I must say that i really really enjoyed this comic book! I'm not a fan of the word graphic novel, right anywho!!! Yes this comic is really good i thought. I heard people saying it wasn't ol' Frank Miller at his best but i think that it is. I thought that the art and use in the comic was pretty much spot on. There were a few moments i had to stop and examine the picture with more detail to understand it properly but you realise that every picture is in some way unique! Also the story in the comic was rather different from what i originally expected it to be. At first you havew a small idea of where the story is going but never actually sure. That's the joy of it. You know the story is heading somewhere but you don't really have a clue until, well you can find that out! Yeah so its all good i thought! And ofcourse one must remember that Marv is back in there! Good ol' Marv, he's as crazy as ever!!! Give it a read some time! it's fun!!!

Good solid stuff for Miller.,
This review is from: Sin City: Dame to Kill for (Paperback)
Having only discovered Sin City in the cinema recently (purists are going to hate that), I was pretty blown away by the movie. A Dame to Kill For is the second book in the original series. The synopsis above pretty much covers the plot, so what's it like? This book is pretty amazing stuff, especially if you liked the Dwight McCarthy character in the movie (but there is a good deal of Marv again in there to keep hisfans happy). Finding out his background is quite cool if you're a fan, especially how he alters his whole appearance to appear as he does in the movie. The story certainly holds together well with a few nice twists. Some other characters re-appear (Nancy, Kadie, Marv, Shelly and so on), as well as some familiar locations, which lends a nice air of nostalgia to the book. If you liked Dwight and his connection to the girls of Old Town, you're going to love this (there's plenty of Gail and Miho in there). Excellent book, inspires one to read on in Miller's wonderfully twisted Basin City tales...

Pretty Cool,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sin City: Dame to Kill for (Paperback)
Interesting story and art. This is not as good as some of Miller's other Sin City graphic novels but it is deffinately worth reading. This is the first part of series within the Sin City books including The Big Fat Kill and Family Values. Dwight is an interesting recurring character. He is a photogropher turned criminal and friend of the Sin City hookers.
