Sin City: Hell & Back

This is the final volume of the Sin City yarns it is also my least favorite of the collected works.  This is somewhat of an odd duck in my opinion compared with the other stories.  The main character Wallace is ex-military part Rambo & part Bruce Lee.  The character from the story Blue Eyes comes back in this story.  Hell & Back is story about a reluctant hero saving a damsel in distress & the evil of human trafficking.  The main difference between this volume & all of the rest of the Sin City books is that there is a happy ending for the hero.  It just seems that Frank Miller was running out of steam by this point of the series & the final scene of Wallace & Esther driving away from Basin City never looking back seems to be a fitting way of saying goodbye to the series.
