Volume 3 of the Sin City graphic novel series.

The focus continues on Dwight as he seeks revenge for the wrongdoing, creating havoc in Old Town and putting the lives of his loves and all the girls into danger to high the identity of a murdered man.

Another interesting twist, Dwight seems like a man, who despite all odds, will never die. He’s still my favorite, even though Marv is pretty cool too.

Not sure what is in store next but Volume 4 is waiting on my nightstand so we’ll find out soon.

The second volume in the Sin City series. Of course, I rewatched the movie after only reading the first volume so I had a better heads up when reading the novels.

A Dame to Kill for focuses more on Dwight and his chance of survival, especially after the surprise ending of Volume 1.

I almost enjoyed this one a lot more and the character of Dwight just might be my favorite so far. Frank Miller is a visionary, that I can tell so far, to tell a story and intertwin different characters, overlapping stories and creating a really interesting turn of events that eventually includes all the people he’s created.
