OVERSIZED SIN CITY!!! This is just AWESOME!!! I'm pretty sure the art will just jump off the pages. It's the perfect thing to have on your shelf. And they already released 2 of these!!!

I WANT... (I saw one on sale in Fully Booked--hopefully it'll still be there by december when i scrape up enough money to get this)

Here's the write up on the second Library set:

This second Sin City slipcase completes the oversized archival editions, available only in these exceptional collections. The handsome 8"x12" books feature the individual stories printed on high-quality paper stock and showcase Miller's atmospheric cover art from the original comics!

Created with serious Frank Miller collectors and art connoisseurs in mind, these new archival editions are sure to satisfy! This slipcase holds Sin City volumes five through seven: Family Values, Miller's first direct-to-trade work; Booze, Broads, and Bullets, an expansive compilation of short stories from the Town without Pity; and Hell and Back, the longest Sin City story to date!

This Library set also includes a special edition of The Art of Sin City, a lush complement to these deluxe volumes. The Art of Sin City extends the reach of the Eisner, Harvey, and National Cartoonists Society award-winning series by showcasing content‹such as Miller's preliminary sketches, that cannot be found elsewhere.

Now the groundbreaking work that sent a rush of adrenaline through the entire industry is available in an attractive archival format!

Dark Horse, 4 slipcased hardbacks, 736 pages (total), published May 2006
