Synopsis

Join Frank Miller as he takes a ride through the mean streets of Sin City for another slice of his beautifully rendered black and white crime noir tales. Both the Mob and the police are starting to try and take over the part of Oldtown, which is currently run by ladies who work in the 'oldest profession'. But our 'hero', Dwight, knows something that the Mob's gotta learn the hard way: sometimes standing up for your friends means killing a whole bunch of people...It includes a five page colour Frank Miller gallery at the front and a black and white gallery at the back featuring the work of some of comics' best known artists such as Mike Mignola, John Romita and Joe Kubert.

About this title

Review:

With The Big Fat Kill Frank Miller is at it again with another comics packed with guns, lovers, losers, and surprises. In Sin City's Old Town, the prostitutes run the show. "The cops stay out. That leaves the girls free to keep the pimps and the mob out." Sounds like an OK place, right? It is until a pushy, loud-mouthed guy who has had one too many drinks comes into Old Town and gets himself killed by the ladies. When they find out who he is, they realize that "it'll be war. The streets will run red with blood. Women's blood."
