Summary: Shame on you, Frank. There is hardly any new material here.
Review: I have been a huge fan of Frank Miller since his Wolverine mini-series done in the late 80s. I'm a huge Sin City fan, and I own all of the graphic novels, even though I also own most of the individual issues, so you can imagine my joy when I heard this project was first announced. It arrived today from Amazon, and I'm returning it tomorrow morning. This book is about 90 percent reprints of pages from the various Sin City mini series, and some promotional items, with perhaps a dozen or so rough layouts and sketches. There were exactly 4 images in this book that I hadn't already seen!!! I can't believe he would try to milk [$$]from his fans like this!!! If you own the majority of the graphic novels in this series, don't waste your money on this. There is very little about his thought or design processes. If you haven't read any of the books in this series, this is a good teaser for the full graphic novels. I bought this hoping that it would wash the bad taste of DK2 away, but now I feel doubly cheated.

Summary: The REPRINTED Art of Frank Miller
Review: I saw this in a comic book store and boy, was this a disappointment. Most of the material has appeared in the pages of the Sin City comic books. Here, they're reproduced at a larger size but big deal. Compare this to the recent Art of Hellboy and you'll see a huge difference in terms of value. Do not buy this book if you already own the Sin City comics or graphic novels because you're going to be getting something you've already seen.

Summary: This Book Is Truly Amazing
Review: Sin City has always been one of my favirote books out there. I have always wondered how Frank Miller managed to get the book to look so good. So when I heard about this art book, I jumped on it. It completely blew me away! It has several scenes that they break down for you. It also has the different drafts that Frank went through to get single pages done. Im sure that you think, "well, art books cost a ton!" But, this one only costs around [fairly decent priced]! Plus its worth every penny! Young Artists, Sin City fans,and anyone who likes good art should pick this up! It wont disapoint you!
