Customer review of: The Big Fat Kill (Sin City, Book 3: Second Edition) Customer Rating: Summary: The soothing sounds of BRAKA BRAKA BRAK Comment: Third book in the deliciously sinister series created by Frank Miller. If you've ever heard the phrase "They had it coming to them" and agreed, you should definitely read this book. If anything is great of this decidely Noir series is that all heroes in this series make you nod in approval in regards to bloody murder. That's the magic of Frank Miller, he puts situations which are obviously not conforming to society or what we deem as correct and spins it in a light that makes you not only acquiesce but root for hookers and murderers. If that's not talent I don't know what is. So how fat is the Big Fat Kill? Did you see seven, that first guy who was fed to death? Well add another ton or so. This series and this book is not for the weak of heart or stomach. Now if you do have the required like for gore necessary for this series, you will find yet another tale of alluringly torrid happenings in a city that makes Gotham look like a Winter Wonderland. Basin City... Population fluctuates and declines with every book. Customer Rating: Summary: great Comment: I've said it before and I know I'll continue to say it, when it comes to comic book artists, no one tops Frank Miller (and no, I haven't forgotten about Alan Moore). He comes in an works magic. I love the pen and ink artwork, both simple and complex. And Miller is great with noir. Sin City is everyone's favorite town of sin populated with everyone's favorite losers. You're gonna love it. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Comic Comment: The comic came in perfect condition and superb time. I recommend it to everyone. :) Customer Rating: Summary: Graphic SF Reader Comment: Take Dwight, the man who gets involved with the wrong women. Throw in a cop, seeing one his old girlfriends. Add a weekend at Bernie's routine, a small female ninja sword wielding killer, some tar pits, and a lot of whores with guns desperate to maintain the status quo after some cops die on their turf. At the end, it is a Big Fat Kill. Customer Rating: Summary: Not Bad, but Certainly Not the Best Comment: After the strong start of the Sin City series of THE HARD GOODBYE and A DAME TO KILL FOR, the books take a bit of a dip with this third volume, THE BIG FAT KILL. It is not bad, but it lacks that stick-to-the-ribs impact of the first two, mostly due to characters that are not as interesting as others we have seen. Dwight McCarthy is simply not as intriguing a character as Marv from Volume 1 (nor as interesting as John Hartigan in the volume that follows this). This was not a major liability in the second volume, A DAME TO KILL FOR, for the simple reason that Dwight was overshadowed by one of the most captivating characters in the series, the ultimate femme fatale of Ava Lord. But here, Dwight has to stand more on his own and, although certainly not a bad character, he also certainly is not strong enough to really hold the audience as much as we would like. Yes, there are the girls of Old Town. But their appeal is diluted as no one character stands out. Miho is quite something, but the fact that she does not talk limits her development. And personally, I always thought Gail was just not up to snuff for the Sin City series. The book is saved by the action. Miho taking care of business the hard way, the Irish mercenaries, the high body count, make THE BIG FAT KILL worthwhile. The weaker characters are a detriment but, fortunately, not a deal breaker.
Editorial Reviews: Criminals have always called the shots in Sin City, whether bootleggers, gamblers, or politicians. But ever since the first dame set up shop in Old Town, those side-streets have been run by the women who walk the night. It's been a delicate truce, but now there's a messy body and the mob's looking to reclaim those licentious streets. They're going to have to put down a tight band of dangerous women and a guy named Dwight to do it. Now Dwight, he knows something that the mob's gotta learn the hard way: sometimes standing up for your friends means killing a whole lot of people...
