Frank Miller's Sin City Volume 3: The Big Fat Kill (Deluxe Edition)


Book Description

The delicate balance between cops and criminals is in peril in this gritty noir graphic novel presented in deluxe packaging, including an oversized hardcover housed in a slipcase with a portfolio and print. Dwight owes a debt to the girls of Old Town. These dangerous women who walk the night have saved him more times than he can count, and finding friends like that isn’t easy. Tonight, these friends are being threatened in more ways than one . . . Dwight is going to do whatever it takes to bring them peace and keep the status quo—even if it means killing a whole lot of people. Frank Miller’s return to his comic opus graphic novel series continues with the luxury edition of Volume 3 The Big Fat Kill. High-end materials and finishes, and iconic textures from the series combine in a package which evokes the striking asphalt jungle that is Sin City. Housed in a cloth-covered slipcase with foil stamping and printing is an oversized hardcover featuring a soft-touch matte finish with spot gloss and foil stamping. The slipcase includes a cloth portfolio featuring a deluxe print of new artwork by Frank Miller. This edition does still include the ten-page pinup gallery from previous editions, featuring art from Arthur Adams, Mike Allred, Sergio Aragonés, Paul Chadwick, Joe Kubert, Mike Mignola, John Romita, Jim Silke, Walter Simonson, and Sergio Toppi. Also included is a slightly expanded eight-page cover gallery featuring art from previous editions. As an added bonus, each volume’s slipcase has a different letter from the logo, placed on the front cover in such a way that alone it looks like a splash of red wrapping around the slipcase. But when all seven volumes are together it is clear that the grouping spells out “Sin City.” Discerning fans and new readers can experience this unparalleled and action-packed noir masterpiece in the most exciting edition to date!

Berlin


Book Description

Twenty years in the making, this sweeping masterpiece charts Berlin through the rise of Nazism. During the past two decades, Jason Lutes has quietly created one of the masterworks of the graphic novel golden age. Berlin is one of the high-water marks of the medium: rich in its well-researched historical detail, compassionate in its character studies, and as timely as ever in its depiction of a society slowly awakening to the stranglehold of fascism. Berlin is an intricate look at the fall of the Weimar Republic through the eyes of its citizens—Marthe Müller, a young woman escaping the memory of a brother killed in World War I, Kurt Severing, an idealistic journalist losing faith in the printed word as fascism and extremism take hold; the Brauns, a family torn apart by poverty and politics. Lutes weaves these characters’ lives into the larger fabric of a city slowly ripping apart. The city itself is the central protagonist in this historical fiction. Lavish salons, crumbling sidewalks, dusty attics, and train stations: all these places come alive in Lutes’ masterful hand. Weimar Berlin was the world’s metropolis, where intellectualism, creativity, and sensuous liberal values thrived, and Lutes maps its tragic, inevitable decline. Devastatingly relevant and beautifully told, Berlin is one of the great epics of the comics medium.
