Synopsis

Brace yourself for another gritty tale from Sin City, an urban jungle populated by human predators and low-life criminals, courtesy of award-winning writer/artist Frank Miller. It's a town where everyone's on the wrong side of the law, even the cops, and good deeds and honest men are in short supply. Enter Wallace, mysterious man of integrity and strength. Out for an evening drive, Wallace prevents a beautiful woman from committing suicide...

About this title

Review:

Can anything be darker than noir? Try Frank Miller's Sin City series. The tasty Hell and Back features Wallace, a brooding artist with a decided talent for hurting people, and Esther, a stunningly beautiful actress accidentally mixed up in a slavery ring that extends far and deep enough to transcend the word conspiracy. The tale twists, turns, and backtracks, teasing the reader with hints of terror to come--until the explosive climax. Miller's art is exactly right for his words; he uses more black than white, and color only when appropriate. The chapter dealing with Wallace's drug hallucinations is beautiful, heartbreaking, and terrifying in turn. Readers interested in the human dark side should find out what fans of Sin City already know: Frank Miller has seen it and wants to share. --Rob Lightner
