review 1: More excellent Brubaker-Phillips crime drama NOIR. Read other reviews for the plot regurgitations and over-explanations of the play-by-play. Simply put, All i would suggest is it would probably be helpful to read the prior TPB CRIMINAL compilations in order before jumping into this. Doing so made it even better for me, as the entire series flows together like an out-of-control run-away train, or a snowball rollling down a hill. It isnt easy to recycle every possible film noir cliche in the book and have it be it's OWN entity and not a bad parody. Brubaker/Phillips are the best.
review 2: Noir and crime comics have been a staple of the medium for as long as superheroes, and sometimes the storytelling in them is just as tired or uncreative. But tried-and-true g... moreenres also offer enormous potential for skillful writers and artists: such is the case with Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, in The Sinners. A tight, twisty plot about an overly-moral hitman instructed to play detective, Brubaker and Phillips capture the best of the crisp dialogue, the underworld intrigue, and the brutal menace that the dark world of noir comics has to offer. A great read. less
