Frank Miller

A teenage sorceress named Nimue encounters a young Arthur on her quest to find a powerful and ancient sword.

Some of Sin City's most hard-boiled citizens cross paths with a few of its more reviled inhabitants.

Down these mean streets a man must come. A hero born, murdered, and born again. When a Rookie cop named Denny Colt returns from the beyond as The Spirit, a hero whose mission is to fight against the bad forces from the shadows of Central City. The Octopus who kills anyone unfortunate enough to see his face who has other plans. He's going to wipe out the entire city. The Spirit tracks this cold hearted killer from the city's rundown warehouses, to the damp catacombs, to the windswept waterfront all the while facing a bevy of beautiful women who either want to seduce, love or kill the masked crusader.

An exploration of the dark and miserable Basin City and three of its residents, all of whom are caught up in violent corruption.
