Product Information

Miller and O'Neil seemed to flourish in the gritty world of street crime so tackling a Spider/Punisher fight was a natural choice. The Aquarius Corporation is an idealistic company founded by three people: Peter McKenna, inventor of biocircuitry, his wife, Casey McKenna, Aquarius' head of security, and Mr.

The geeks control the world -- the world of culture at least -- but they still feel like losers when all their dreams have come true. Eight centuries later, social and economic collapse has left New York a lawless wasteland, populated by squatters, factions, and mutants. I'm sure if it had been a bunch of young, sociopathic vigilantes with Batman make-up on their faces, he'd be more in favour of it. On April 28, 2022, it was reported that Miller was launching an American comic book publishing company titled Frank Miller Presents, or FMP.I don’t know if playing the samurai within the classic clichés and then mocking him through his master is such a sharp idea: we’re immediately alienated from the ronin, whom we regard as something of a humorless clod.

Miller was pleased with the result, leading to him and Rodriguez directing a full-length film, Sin City using Miller's original comics panels as storyboards.However, perhaps the most shocking moment in “That Yellow Bastard” is also one of its finest: the epic final showdown between Hartigan and Roark Jr. The six-issue work shows some of the strongest influences of manga and bande dessinée on Miller's style, both in the artwork and narrative style. His first published work was at Western Publishing's Gold Key Comics imprint, received at the recommendation of comics artist Neal Adams, to whom a fledgling Miller, after moving to New York City, had shown samples and received much critique and occasional informal lessons. Miller was unimpressed with how much Irvin Kershner had diluted his brutal dystopian vision in the 1990 film (which, admittedly, wasn’t the greatest) and was enthusiastic about the idea of his story finally being told uncensored… and boy, did he get his wish!

Frank Miller Presents | RONIN: Book II

He was one of the artists on the Superman and Batman: World's Funnest one-shot written by Evan Dorkin published in 2000. His journey was that of personal vengeance, and he never hesitated cutting down anyone who stood in his way. Biocircuitry is a new model of plastics-based electronics, capable of self-organization and self-repair under the direction of Virgo, the artificial intelligence at the heart of the Aquarius Complex. If nothing else, Ronin stands as a rare example of a commercial comic book that totally reflects its creator’s vision, unfogged by editorial meddling, counter­productive collaborators, or the pressures of indefinite serialization. We are now at the heart of Miller’s prob­lems as an artist: his drawing is all tech­nique and no observation.

Back at Aquarius, Virgo explains what has occurred to Casey McKenna, who assumes Virgo's logic units have been affected, but begins an investigation anyway. Ronin will teach the main­stream companies that they can make a huge amount of money without stealing their creators’ ideas, saddling them with unsympathetic and reactionary editors, and printing the material on toilet paper. This is not an insurmount­able problem, but Miller doesn’t even come within a stone’s throw of solving it.
