QIf Nancy's Story takes place before The Hard Goodbye; why does she have no scars in the first movie?
AEither plastic surgery or the wounds were superficial and healed without scarring . While they certainly don't look superficial (as they had stitches), it is a graphic novel universe and realism isn't a requirement.
QWasn't Johnny Depp supposed to be in this? What about Antonio Banderas?
ANeither actor was part of the cast, nor was even supposed to be. Their rumoured appearance in the movie was based on earlier comments made by Rodriguez and others. Earlier, Rodriguez told MTV that he wants Depp for the role of Wallace, a character in the story Hell and Back, which he and Miller planned at the time for the [possible] third movie, Sin City 3. For reasons unknown, multiple sites that cite an MTV interview as their source claimed that Banderas and Depp were to be in the second movie. The rumour about Depp joining the cast spread extremely fast and was even told as a fact on some TV channels. The mentioned interview can be read here. In another interview Banderas said that he had no deal with Rodriguez nor had they talked about it, but he'd join the cast if Rodriguez would have him. [Source: here].
QIs this a sequel or a prequel?
AAs has been said before, Sin City books have not been published in chronological order. As the movie contains several stories, the terms sequel or prequel can't be applied. Nancy's Last Dance takes place after the events of That Yellow Bastard, but before A Dame To Kill For. The Long Bad Night overlaps Nancy's Last Dance. A Dame To Kill For begins a few months before Marv meets Goldie, and partly overlaps The Hard Goodbye. This makes it a prequel to The Big Fat Kill (and in a sense to The Hard Goodbye), but it has practically no connection to That Yellow Bastard, other than taking place after it and in the same city. The recently confirmed short, Just Another Saturday Night takes place during the same night that Hartigan is released from prison in the comics, but the connection is not in the movie.
