About the Author

Frank Miller began his career in comics in the late 1970s, first drawing then writing Daredevil for Marvel Comics, creating what was essentially a crime comic disguised as a superhero book. It was on Daredevil that Miller gained notoriety, honed his storytelling abilities, and took his first steps toward becoming a giant in the comics medium. After Daredevil came Ronin, a science-fiction samurai drama that seamlessly melded Japanese and French comics traditions into the American mainstream; and after that, the groundbreaking and acclaimed Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One, both of which not only redefined the classic character, but also revitalized the industry itself. Finally able to fulfill his dream of doing an all-out, straight-ahead crime series, Miller introduced Sin City in 1991. Readers responded enthusiastically to Miller's tough-as-leather noir drama, creating an instant sales success. His multi-award-winning 300 series from Dark Horse, a telling of history's most glorious and underreported battle, was brought to full-blooded life in 1998. In 2001, Miller returned to the superhero genre with the best-selling Batman: The Dark Knight Strikes Again. Frank Miller continues to push the medium into new territories, exploring subject matter previously untouched in comics, and his work consistently receives the highest praise from his industry peers and readers everywhere. In 2005, with the hugely successful Sin City movie release, co-directed with Robert Rodriguez, Miller added a director's credit to his already impressive resumé and introduced his characters to an entirely new legion of fans worldwide.

    Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

    Frank Miller is one of the seminal creative talents who sparked the current gigantic sub-industry of motion pictures featuring comic book- initiated product. A sub-industry which had become a super-industry. This most profitable aspect of this millennium’s film production, now producing an annual flow of box office profits in the Billions of dollars, was launched when Frank Miller’s graphic novel re-take on the classic comic book hero, Batman, resulted in an entertainment industry-wide reconsideration of the genre in the deeper and darker vision Miller brought to it.

    Miller re-defined the presentation of comic book characters and heroic fiction with his grand-daddy of graphic novels, “The Dark Knight.” This revolutionary work

    not only kicked off the series of Batman films based on his redefinition, but a craze for such material that has thrown dozens of such heroes into multiple film franchise heaven. Certainly chief among these has been Miller’s uniquely classical take on superheroic narrative, “300,” and his “Sin City” books, each of which entered motion pictures with historic successes, and each now in Miller's creative phase of achieving its highly-anticipated sequel. Miller’s co-direction of “Sin City” has made him one of the hottest

    directors… as well as a guiding creative force…for the new genre. Or one might say “super genre.”

    Miller's latest graphic novel, Holy Terror, is his first original graphic novel in ten years. Join The Fixer, a brand new, hard-edged hero as he battles terror in the inaugural release from Legendary Comics.

5.0 out of 5 stars OMG Sin City to the Max - Get it, you won’t regret it!

When I first read about this edition and saw some of the pages, I thought, you'd really have to love Sin City to buy this. After years of buying various editions and the original comics, I finally took the plunge and I'm glad I did. The quality of the imagery (and its size) reveals the subtlety and the power that is compressed in all other editions. Even with white overpainting, erasers, etc. - all the "?faults?" of the original boards, it reveals a majesty that all other editions allude to. A friend was over the other day, and related that shiny paper is considered cheap by the Japanese. In comparison to the subtle richness transmitted by the pages of the curator's edition, the other editions look like they were captured in neon ultraviolet lighting (arguable a good/great look, but something is lost in translation}. The multi-layered beauty of the page of Marv standing Infront of Cardinal Roark's statue, alone, is worth the price of this edition, which has a multitude of comparable pages. There's no going back to other editions after going through this one; but of course, I will.... It is Sin City after all! (But how will I dream!!!!!!!!!!)

Lorsque l'on voit pour la première fois ce livre, les mots manquent. On ne le regarde pas, on admire. C'est une pièce de collection. La qualité de fabrication est sans défaut. Les planches du grand Miller sont reproduites à la perfection. Tout y est. Les tâches, les repentirs, les traits de crayons et les variations d'encrage. Ceci est indispensable. Un indispensable qui trouveras sa place auprès de vos tirages Black and White éditions.

5.0 out of 5 stars La creación de la Ciudad de Pecado
Reviewed in Spain on December 16, 2016
Verified Purchase
Después de su paso por el cine Frank Miller vuelve a los cómics para publicar por entregas su primera serie de Sin City.
Más tarde todas se recopilarian bajo el título "The Hard Goodbye".
Miller cambia su arte al blanco y negro para poder mostrar de modo más descarnado las violentas historias de su ciudad del pecado.
El libro muestra los originales de cada página , en los que vemos evolucionar al autor en su búsqueda por expresarse solo con luces y sombras, blanco y negro. Ganando la mancha a la línea.
También es un blanco y negro moral. Su relato de buenos y malos da pie a pocos grises.
Excelente diseño y calidad en el libro.
Es cierto que el gran formato lo hace incómodo de manejar, pero muestra de un modo crudo la lucha del artista por forjar su mundo de luz y pecado, de blanco y negro , que dará lugar a 8 novelas gráficas más.
