There are all kinds of dark business you might encounter on a cold night in Basin City, and the tales here paint a gloriously dirty portrait. Marv, the hulking ex-con with a condition, has to jog his memory about a certain Saturday night, and then on another evening, he’s after something but he keeps his quest is quiet—sometimes there’s no need for words. Visiting Old Town, where all your dreams could come true, Gail and Miho demonstrate what happens when you don’t play by their rules. Then, hired-hand Blue Eyes makes an important kill—a few, actually. A woman on the run finds a way out . . . A sucker with good intentions gets duped . . . Fat Man and Little Boy are seen on a couple of jobs, and being low-rent hit-men, you can guess what that means. And the dark deeds and dealings stay dark in a few more stories also included in this anthology. The fourth editions of Frank Miller’s hit graphic novel series continue with Volume 6 Booze, Broads, & Bullets. This edition includes a fourteen-page expanded cover and art gallery featuring pieces from previous editions. As an anthology of short tales, it’s a great jumping on point for new readers wondering what Sin City is all about—or longtime readers who can''t get enough! FOR MATURE READERS
