Sin City: The Big Fat Kill [Paperback]

The Guardian Guide, April 23-29 2005: " Graphic novels rarely get this graphic-in content or style."

"In the world of comics, Miller is regarded as the very best working today..."

"...it's no understatement to say that he (Miller) has shaped the current wave of big-budget franchise moview more than anyone."

Join Frank Miller as he takes a ride through the mean streets of Sin City for another slice of his beautifully rendered black and white crime noir tales. Both the Mob and the police are starting to try and take over the part of Oldtown, which is currently run by ladies who work in the 'oldest profession'. But our 'hero', Dwight, knows something that the Mob's gotta learn the hard way: sometimes standing up for your friends means killing a whole bunch of people...It includes a five page colour Frank Miller gallery at the front and a black and white gallery at the back featuring the work of some of comics' best known artists such as Mike Mignola, John Romita and Joe Kubert.

Sin City the movie will be released in 2005, from Buena Vista.
The 3 graphic novels the film is based on are: Sin City: The Hard Goodbye (prev. Sin City), Sin City: That Yellow Bastard, and Sin City: The Big Fat Kill
