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. Sin City is now a hotly-anticipated movie, set for an early 2005 debut! Directed by Robert Rodriguez (Once Upon a Time in Mexico, Spy Kids) and Sin City and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns creator Frank Miller, the film stars an incredible line-up of talent. The Sin City cast includes Bruce Willis, Benicio Del Toro, Josh Hartnett, Jessica Alba, Brittany Murphy, Elijah Wood, Clive Owen, Jaime King, Michael Madsen, and Mickey Rourke as the iconic Marv!

Review:
Frank Miller's Sin City is visually quite astonishing. A brutal adult noir set in the fictional Basin City, Miller's black and white artwork realises the atmosphere of some weird Depression-era-style future superbly well. Our principal character, Marv, is a giant, as large as he is ugly, who has found some peace, some kindness, some shelter in the arms of a prostitute called Goldie. Goldie, running from someone, scared as hell, needs protection as much as Marv needs a little human kindness. Hauling himself out of the depths of a huge hangover Marv wakes to find Goldie murdered. And revenge is one of the things Marv does best. While the artwork is undeniably fine the story is rather thin in places, and the sound effects come a little too thick and fast. Although not a great comic it is a very good one and, as the first part of the classic Sin City series, the beginning chapter in what has become an essential addition to the adult graphic novel collector's list. --Mark Thwaite
