“Noir is all about unusual settings, oddball characters and cutting commentary. There doesn’t need to be a warm and fuzzy finale.”
Great quote from noir author Andrew Bergen in his recent interview over at Australian Comics Journal.com. I couldn’t have put it better myself.
Does anyone else have their own definition of noir?

I think that definition is great, Tess! Thanks for sharing it.
No, thank Andrew!! I saw it in his interview the other day and just had to steal it. 😀
Noir is about losers losing.
Good one!
Noir is full of characters with the wonderful ability to take a bad situation and make it worse.
I love that. 🙂
