Dark Horse Presents #108

Dark Horse Presents #108, published in May 1996, serves as a significant entry in the long-running anthology series that established Dark Horse Comics as a premier destination for creator-owned and independent talent. During the mid-1990s, the series functioned as a laboratory for experimental storytelling, often bridging the gap between mainstream superhero tropes and the more idiosyncratic, artist-driven narratives favored by the publisher’s founders.

This specific issue is notable for continuing the 'Sin City' saga by Frank Miller, whose hard-boiled noir aesthetic helped define the visual language of the imprint during this era. The design and editorial direction were aimed at readers seeking gritty, non-traditional comic narratives, and the anthology format allowed Miller and other contributors to iterate on their styles without the rigid constraints of long-form corporate continuity.
