Quote:First published as Sin City in Dark Horse Presents issues #51-62 and 5th Anniversary Special (June 1991–June 1992), and reprinted as Sin City (The Hard Goodbye) (January 1993), The Hard Goodbye is the first comic book story that Frank Miller drew and wrote about the desperate denizens of Basin City/"Sin City". It was originally titled simply Sin City when it was released in the Dark Horse Presents Fifth Anniversary Special and issues Dark Horse Presents #51-62 , but it was given its own title in trade paperback form.

Maybe they didn't focus on it as much, but it was all there.

Quote:Originally posted by Seba: They're the exact same thing. Will Eisner just decided to start using the term graphic novel as a way to give the medium some sort of criticial merit. The vast majority of "graphic novels" are just trade paperbacks of serialized comic issues, not original long-form entities. By the way, Alan Moore, the person in question, is from one of the most revered comics writers of the past 25 years, so I'd definitely suggest picking up some of his printed material, especially before seeing Hollwood ruin them. Start with Watchmen (something else they're planning on desecrating).

Quote:Originally posted by singate: I hate to burst your bubble but the phrase 'my turn' has been around for a long time. I'm sure there are numerous uses of it in film but the one I remember off the top of my head is in "The Lost Boys". Near the end of the movie David is beating the hell out of Michael then he says 'my turn' and proceeds to kill David. Even though it's from twenty years ago maybe I should have added a spoiler alert. Edit: I think I screwed up. The 'my turn' I was thinking of occured at the end of "Blade". Frost says it to Blade after he gets all powered up. Always mix up my vampire flicks. _________________________________________________
