Not much more to say than I did in my review of the first one ([b:Sin City, Vol. 1: The Hard Goodbye|392297|Sin City, Vol. 1 The Hard Goodbye (Sin City, #1)|Frank Miller|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1396598209s/392297.jpg|3696736]). Brilliant work. [b: Hell and Back|300674|To Hell and Back|Audie Murphy|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1344865109s/300674.jpg|291743] is probably the best of the Sin City volumes. Instead of telling a story of hideous corruption (which it certainly includes) and dark resignation, [b: Hell and Back|300674|To Hell and Back|Audie Murphy|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1344865109s/300674.jpg|291743] tells the story of moving past Sin City, effectively offering a more hopeful ending for those who have read from the start. Wallace is an ex-soldider with a heart of gold. He saves a woman, Esther, from suicide only to get far more than he bargained for when he ends up drugged, and her kidnapped the following day. What follows is a hunt down the dark rabbit hole of conspiracy. Human trafficking, sex slavery, the black market of organ selling... any number of things. Wallace is cutting to the heart of it to save the woman he loves. For once, Sin City might just get left behind at the end of it all. This volume told the most cohesive story, and also offered up some of the most bizarre asides. Here we get the full-color drug trip, the twisting road of conspiracies and the knowledge such things might just always exist. Here we have a hero with a heart of gold, and more, the brains to not fall for so stupid a trap but rather to set his own. It's a satisfying volume, and a fine send off to the series. Well worth the read - it also would make a killer film. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Experience the biggest, baddest yarn the signature noir series has to offer. Wallace was living a pretty simple life, a good guy, an artist, trying to make his way but not willing to sacrifice his principles to do it. Then, he meets Esther. He saves her from trying to take her own life, and falls in love. But before she can explain her reasons, she's taken, kidnapped by a shadowy cabal up to serious no good. Luckily there's more to Wallace than goodness. He isn't the kind to lose his head, he's really good at killing people. And he'll kill anyone that needs killing if it gets him closer to finding Esther again. He's going to hell . . . and back. This edition does include the cover and pinup galleries from previous editions, featuring art from Eduardo Barreto, Brian Bolland, Geof Darrow, Gary Gianni, Paul Grist, R. C. Harvey, Russ Heath, Gil Kane, Jason Pearson, and Matt Wagner. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Frank Miller could have done better, from the artwork to the storytelling, but I guess writing for Batman and 300 really sucked the good ideas out of his brain. ( )
