The first volume of the crime-comic megahit that introduced the now-infamous character Marv and spawned a blockbuster film. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town. But Marv doesn't care. There's an angel in the room. She says her name is Goldie. A few hours later, Goldie's dead without a mark on her perfect body, and the cops are coming before anyone but Marv could know she's been killed. Somebody paid good money for this frame...

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 resume and introduced his characters to an entirely new legion of fans worldwide."
