Will Eisner’s The Spirit To Be A Movie
That looks very Sin City-ish.

It looks like Sin City because Frank Miller drew that poster (and was, of course, the artist/writer for Sin City). Miller learned much of his visual style from Eisner – you can see it in his work on Daredevil (circa 1981). This should be good, although I’m a little leery of him actually directing a movie.

I should have realized Miller did the poster. It certainly isn’t Eisner’s Spirit! (1981 is just before I stopped regularly buying comics!) Thanks.

Kirby did that sort of thing a lot too.
