Ronin

Product Information

La historia no está mal aunque se podría contar mucho mejor, al principio va contándose en dos lineas argumentales, una en la edad media japonesa y otra en el futuro, aunque luego descubriremos que tiene truco, el caso es que aunque a menudo Miller abunda en explicaciones reiteradas e innecesarias al final consigue que el conjunto sea confuso. Miller's feature film work includes writing the scripts for the 1990s science fiction films RoboCop 2 and RoboCop 3, sharing directing duties with Robert Rodriguez on Sin City and Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, producing the film 300, and directing the big screen adaptation of The Spirit. Sin City earned a Palme d'Or nomination. When Frank Miller announced he and Robert Rodriguez would once again be collaborating on a movie -- this time an adaptation of Will Eisner’s “The Spirit,” which Miller contributed to in the ‘70s -- expectations were high. The duo’s last project, “Sin City,” was a critical and commercial success and fans were raring to see what they would do next… until we saw this movie, that is. Then we mainly just wondered if there was a way to undo it. McMillan, Graeme (July 11, 2015). "Comic-Con: Will Eisner Comic Industry Award Winners Announced". The Hollywood Reporter.

The unnamed Ronin goes on a crusade to avenge his master and in the process, sacrifices himself. Cut to 800 years later and we are in the blasted ruins of New York in a massive complex run by the Aquarius Corporation. It's here we are introduced to a small cast of characters including:

Ronin (DC Comics) - Wikipedia

Sensing danger, Virgo tries in vain to talk Casey out of acting, to no avail. Casey frees the ronin, then humiliates him, as a woman had avenged his master where he had failed. Casey then gives him a sword to commit seppuku while acting as his second. As the ronin guts himself, Billy cries in agony. Virgo tries to scold him to take control but Billy can't control himself, blaming Virgo for making him feel worthless. The ronin shoves the sword into his heart, Casey kills him, and Billy unleashes a telekinetic blast which destroys Aquarius, and by extension, New York. The only ones left standing are Casey and the ronin. In 1994, Miller became one of the founding members of the comic imprint Legend, under which many of his Sin City works were released via Dark Horse Comics. [62] In 1995, Miller and Darrow collaborated again on Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, published as a two-part miniseries by Dark Horse. [63] In 1999, it became an animated series on Fox Kids. [64] I just want to mention again that they were in a sewer. I cannot stress this enough. Nothing could make me feel less sexy than a realm of sewage. The new venture bears the name of one of comics’ most celebrated storytellers. Miller is renowned for revitalizing Daredevil and Batman in the 1980's, as well as for indie comics classics like 300 and Give Me Liberty (with artist Dave Gibbons). Together with former DC Comics co-publisher Dan DiDio, who has now signed on as the publisher of FMP, Miller aims to launch a company that empowers and inspires artists and writers to push the medium to new limits. Ronin is a comic book limited series published by DC Comics. The series was written and drawn by Frank Miller with water colors by Lynn Varley. The series publication ran between 1983 and 1984 with a total of six volumes.

Written and illustrated by Miller with painted colors by Varley, 300 was a 1998 comic-book miniseries, released as a hardcover collection in 1999, retelling the Battle of Thermopylae and the events leading up to it from the perspective of Leonidas of Sparta. 300 was particularly inspired by the 1962 film The 300 Spartans, a movie that Miller watched as a young boy.

They made a movie in 1962 called The 300 Spartans, which 5-year-old Frank Miller saw in the theater, and it had a powerful influence on him. As penciller and co-plotter, Miller, together with writer Chris Claremont, produced the miniseries Wolverine #1–4 (Sept.-Dec. 1982), [30] inked by Josef Rubinstein and spinning off from the popular X-Men title. Miller used this miniseries to expand on Wolverine's character. [31] The series was a critical success and further cemented Miller's place as an industry star. His first creator-owned title was DC Comics' six-issue miniseries Ronin (1983–1984). [32] In 1985, DC Comics named Miller as one of the honorees in the company's 50th-anniversary publication Fifty Who Made DC Great. [33] Miller is noted for combining film noir and manga influences in his comic art creations. He said: "I realized when I started Sin City that I found American and English comics be too wordy, too constipated, and Japanese comics to be too empty. So I was attempting to do a hybrid." [3] Miller has received every major comic book industry award, and in 2015 he was inducted into the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame.

Unable to handle both writing and penciling Daredevil on the new monthly schedule, Miller began increasingly relying on Janson for the artwork, sending him looser and looser pencils beginning with #173. [25] By issue #185, Miller had virtually relinquished his role as Daredevil's artist, and he was providing only rough layouts for Janson to both pencil and ink, allowing Miller to focus on the writing.
