A review by brig_berthold
Sin City, Vol. 1: The Hard Goodbye by Frank Miller

4.0

I honestly had no idea what to expect from this. As this was my first experience with a graphic novel, I chose to check it against a storyline I already knew. Good or bad on the decision making scale, who knows. Anyway, I was incredibly surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. It was a quick read, enjoyable, and I found myself appreciating the artistic license the author took. I am not speaking about the artwork, although I found that incredible, rather the narration. Being a fan of, and familiar with, film noir, this story was right up my alley. Plus, how do you not love Marv? Moving forward, I will certainly be reading each of the installments available in the series. I will also likely spread my wings and attempt more graphic novels.
