Sin City is the overall title for a series of stories by Frank Miller told in comic book form, in what one could call the Noir style (Film Noir without the film).

The first story originally appeared in Dark Horse Presents from April of 1991 to June of 1992, under the title of Sin City, serialized in thirteen parts. Several other stories of variable lengths have followed. All stories take place in Basin City, with frequent recurring characters and intertwining stories.

A Sin City movie is to be released on April 1, 2005, directed by Robert Rodriguez.

The Sin City graphic novels will be reprinted with new covers in the months leading up to the motion picture's theatrical release.
