Umm, is Miller trying to make The Spirit a copy of Sin City??

Yeah that is exactly what I don't like about it. Plus I hope the movie isn't that dark. But of course that only Spirit comics I've read are by Darwyn Cooke.

Frank Miller did an interview...here is what he said...
It only resembles Sin City in that I am its director, and, well, yes, I have my ways and my proclivities. The Spirit, despite any accidental impression left by that kickass teaser trailer, is a full-color movie. Sin City--and I hope to make of it a movie trilogy all its own, come hell and high water--is, visually, a playhouse for black and white."
and about changing his suit to black
Going to black brings back his essential mystery, his Zorro-like sexiness," Miller said. "It also makes that red tie of his look very, very cool. So I made the call, with all respect to Eisner's creation and, most importantly, to what I perceived as his underlying intention. It was an easy call for me to make. The Spirit dresses in black and looks much the better for it. As I said, my desire was never to slavishly follow the rules of '40s printing into campy oblivion, but to reintroduce Eisner's creation, via modern technology, to our brave new world."
