Sin City, Vol. 6: Booze, Broads, and Bullets by Frank Miller
5.0
These are short stories but Marv is back! While I could have done without more Dwight, Hartigan and the girls of Old Town, Marv's back!
Some of these stories tie into events that happened in other books (like when Marv sees Hartigan and Nancy cozied up in what's innocent but he doesn't know their story), and in a lot of ways its a prequel for Marv. It opens with him in a fender bender going through the windshield, and having flashbacks of different events where he helped people, essentially becoming a street-anti hero.
Dwight's back in a lackluster story with two discount hitmen that make cameos throughout this series alongside more Old Town girls saga, this time which goes into detail of their rules of law, order, and decorum plus the consequences of anyone who dares violate them.
There are a few other stories but to be honest, after Marv's stories everything else is a blur. For fans of the film a few of these shorts wound up in the movie.
