Sin City


A collection of interweaving stories all based in the corrupt, crime infested hellhole that is Basin City. Heavily influenced by film-noir, the main storylines concern a hulking brute called Mary, who is seeking the murderer of a beautiful woman who was killed while asleep in bed with him (along with the help of her twin sister); a photographer called Dwight who is callously used by a manipulative woman and seeks revenge, only later accidently killing a hero cop and having to cover it up; and a soon-to be-retiring policeman called Harington who is incarcerated for a crime he didn’t commit only to find, on his release, the girl he was protecting when he was framed is under threat from a sinister psychopath. All based on the brilliant graphic novels “Sin City” “A Dame To Kill For”, “The Big Fat Kill” and “That Yellow Bastard”, written by Frank Miller.
