Sin City: Family Values

In 1998, Dark Horse published a single-issue story from Frank Miller’s Sin City saga—Family Values—a hardboiled, noir-tinged one-shot that stands as a self-contained chapter in the brutal, rain-slicked world of Basin City. Written and illustrated by Miller, this issue tightens the focus on the twisted loyalties and blood-soaked codes of honor that define the series’ criminal underbelly. While brief, it’s a potent snapshot of Miller’s signature high-contrast art and terse, pulpy dialogue, essential for completists of the Sin City mythos.
