SIN CITY: THAT YELLOW BASTARD follows aging cop John Hartigan as he rescues an 11-year-old girl, Nancy Callahan, from a sadistic predator.

This installment shifts focus from antiheroes to a more emotional noir tale of sacrifice, redemption, and unrelenting evil. Frank Miller’s moody storytelling and cinematic artwork create one of the most powerful “Sin City” narratives.
