This quote from Sin City says it all concerning *
Where Senator Roark tells Hartigan:

"Power doesn't come from a badge or a gun. Power comes outta lying and lying big and getting the whole damn world to play along with you, Once you got everybody agreeing with what they know in their hearts ain't true you got em trapped. You're the boss. You can turn reality on its head and they'll cheer you on. You can make a saint out of a gibbering nutcase like my high and mighty brother. You can beat your wife to death with a baseball bat like I did and leave your fingerprints all the hell over it and a dozen witnesses will swear on a stack of bibles you were a thousand miles away."

Tell me that doesn't sound like the head of the * Crime Family talking in private with a close associate.

1. Yeah, well, Frank Miller has always been a master "filter"...
...of the human condition.

All of the Dark Knight, Daredevil, Sin City stuff...it was massively popular because he struck a chord. He's a keen observer of the world he lives in.
