Having read all of the other 6 previous Sin City books i was hoping for a final book to really blow the rest out of the water with loads of action and secret sbeing revealed, hopefully whilst including the characters i had become accustomed to i.e. Marv,Dwight and Jon. Unfortunately, i was rather disapointed. I was very unsre whether to give it a 4 star rating to be honest because of how split i am in my verdict. The book does have its good bits involving alot of action sequences and bits of humour, however, as i was with the 5th and 6th books, i felt slightly in the dark as to who the main characters were. In A Dame To Kill For for example, we had already met Marv, learning of what sort of person he would be. The same is in The ... Read More:

When I started reading "Family Values," Book 5 of Frank Miller's "Sin City" series, I found myself wondering why Dwight keeps getting to be the narrator-protagonist of the comic noir stories. Then I remembered that Marv and Hartigan are both dead, so it means it is either Dwight or somebody new and Miller will have to get to the latter sooner or later. But for the third time in the first five books, once again Dwight is the man. Dwight shows up at Poppa's Olympian Palace, an old fashioned diner (you know the type; it looks like you could put it on wheels and hitch it to a train as a cheap dinner car) driving a VW Beetle (hey, it is a German car, so what is your complaint? Besides, you can always trade up). The place is riddled with ... Read More:

46.Sin City: Booze, Broads, and Bullets Bk. 6 (Sin City (Dark Horse)): Booze, Broads, and Bullets Bk. 6 (Sin City (Dark Horse)) by: Frank Miller by: Frank Miller April 04, 2005

Having read all of the novels before this one, i have experienced his better novels as well as the lesser ones. Booze, broads and bullets is a great read full of Miller's trademark rather sadistic approach. The structure of this book however is different to his others; rather than being just the one story that carries on for the entire book, it is instead a series of small sub-stories all of which involving the lesser characters involve din the earlier novels. Characters such as Fat Man and Little Boy and Lucille have little stories based around them. The stories are good and at times with a bit of humour to them, however the inclusion of these stories seem to be rather out of context. As the other stories tended to link in with one another, these just ... Read More:

This volume of The Sandman did not turn out as good as I initially expected.If it had,I would not be writing this review,proclaiming its excellence.In this volume Delirium(previously delight)decides to try to find her once close brother Destruction,who abandoned his realm and his responsibilities as one of the endless 300 years ago,to live in 'the waking world'.She convinces her older brother Death(the Sandman)to help her. All of the disfunctional famiy-the Endless are featured in this excellent story of life and change;Destiny,Death,Dream,Destruction,Desire,Despair and Delirium.Their names reflect their personalities and nature,especially for Delirium who is of course,delirius(my favourite charachter!)I found her dramatic physical changes over ...

The skies are in upheaval; there are whispers of a growing storm ferocious enough to end the world. Strange creatures (the witchbreed) are stalking the woods and hillsides, and a young girl and her burly native protector are undertaking the long and dangerous voyage from the american colonies back to england, bringing strange, awesome powers and warnings of a terrible fate back to the dying Queen Elizabeth. Against this background, the brilliant, twisted Count Otto Von Doom and the puritanical, mysterious Inquisition pursue their own terrible agendas... Sound exciting? It is. I really love this book. It's a huge, wonderful "What if..?" story, but one like i'd never read before. The transposition of Marvel Comics' colourful cast of superheroes to ... Read More:

If you can't get enough of Moore, you need to read this insightful essay. Bear in mind that's essentially what this is; it's not a comprehensive textbook on approaches to writing, but a snapshot of Moore's own view and approach.
