When will all hell break loose? Comics legend Frank Miller, creator of the groundbreaking Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, pounds out his longest Sin City graphic novel to date, a bare-knuckle barrage of brutal action, dark secrets, and heroic sacrifice. What the hell -- it's a love story Includes color sections and pinups by a who's who of comics luminaries, including Lynn Varley's first actual comics illustration.

This is actually one of my favorites in the Sin City series. I enjoyed the first three and then got tired of the same formula Miller uses for all of them. Hell and Back is still the lone soldier fighting against corruption but it's more interesting than that. I liked that he fought so hard to save someone he barely knew and that the theme of Sin City corrupting all it touched. Much more interesting characters than some of the other Sin City volumes and finally a woman besides Miho who doesn't just rely on sex to achieve her goals. And the artwork, as always, was excellent.
