Harvey, as well as a very short Miller bio at the end. While this is mainly a collection of art pieces, there is an excellent introduction by R.C. Some of the pages are spectacular examples of Miller's ability to apply black and white shapes in a way that conveys a dramatic mood, while at the same time doing so in an almost minimalistic approach.Īt the end of the book there are some examples of Lynne Varney's colors over Miller's art, but these only seem to detract from the intensity of the previous works, but in the process provide a counterpoint to the starkness of the previous chapters. The pencil layouts with basic marker overlays provide a glimpse into the inner workings of a master at work. The book displays various pages, sketches and layouts for Miller's work on the series. Miller revived the "crime" genre in comics and in the process also redefined what could be accomplished in a black and white medium. When Frank Miller's "Sin City" was first published I remember being in awe of its stark and gritty artwork and how different it was than his previous work.
