He continues to experiment and develop new skill sets -- growing and evolving. I find such a quality in any creator admirable -- because even when such risk-takers stumble, there's always a chance that the next time around they just might hit a home run. Face it, Miller, like any number of 1980s or 1990s once-hot artists, could have hunkered down in a comfortable niche and milked it until he became trivia question. Instead, he keeps pushing the envelope and reinventing himself. Frank-ly (pun intended), I hope he knocks it out of the park with the Spirit movie.

That's all I know. I know little more about Robocop lore.

That said. I think Sin City may have convinced him that he has skills he doesn't posses. Sin City was all Robert Rodriguez and giving Miller a co-directers credit was just RR being nice.

If anyone can successfully reproduce the atmospheric nuances of Eisner's [i]Spirit[/i] strip, it's probably Miller. Here’s hoping Miller directs a winner.
