Dark Horse Presents 5th anniversary special #NN - Frank Miller art & cover + 1st Sin City

Frank Miller

Dark Horse Presents 5th anniversary special #NN (no number), 1991 - At over 100 pages, this anniversary special is brimming with original stories and art. Among the more popular features are Concrete (by Paul Chadwick) and Aliens (based on the movie franchise). Frank Miller draws the chaotic wrap-around cover, depicting multiple characters inside. He also authors Give Me Liberty, but his most notable contribution this issue is his first installment of Sin City. Drawn in black and white (like the rest of the contents), this tale introduces Marv, the anti-hero of this film-noir style crime story. Each panel and page is meticulously designed, working in tandem with the superb script. This story was later reprinted in the Sin City trade paperback. Miller continues this episodic saga in Dark Horse Presents #51. This issue also includes artwork by Matt Wagner. This is 1 of 1 Dark Horse Presents anniversary issues by Miller. /// key 1st appearance Sin City
