If you actually search online for Sin City comic art, you'll see that most of the images that turn up are good enough to be featured. Bulk of the artworks are in black and white, while the last few pages (mostly from Hell and Back) are in colour. Flip through a few pages and the Frank Miller style is easily recognisable. The use of light and shadows, stark backgrounds, are fantastic. Unfortunately, there's no commentary included except for short credits.įrank Miller's film noir inspired style of art is very powerful. The red pages mentioned earlier shows off rough sketches but the page is only one side with the other wasted as blank. While most are actual finished artworks, there are also some preliminary pencil drafts, and layouts indicating areas to be inked.
The artworks featured are a selection of covers and pages from the various Sin City main and short stories. It's an interesting read, interesting enough that I hope one day there will be a Frank Miller artbook and biography. Harvey who recounts the rise of Frank Miller and his art since the Daredevil days in late 1979. The book starts of with an introduction by R.C.
The paper used are low gloss and thick, occasionally interspersed by matte red pages. This is a large 128-paperback artbook published by Dark Horse. They have the same page number so the content should be the same, but don't quote me as I don't have the first edition. Here's a reprint of the first edition that came out more than 10 years ago.
