Ava Lord - Wikipedia. Ava Lord is a fictional character in Frank Miller's Sin Cityuniverse, the title character in the graphic novel A Dame to Kill For. An ex- lover of Dwight Mc. Carthy, she manipulates men with her good looks and an innocent facade for her own personal gain or amusement. An expert liar, she is considered a goddess by Manute, her towering manservant, and a "manipulative bitch" by Dwight.

She represents the classic femme fatale, acting as a foil to Dwight's hard- boiled antihero. Background[edit]One night, Dwight Mc. Carthy receives a call from Ava, asking him to meet her at a seedy bar called Kadie's Club Pecos. She had broken his heart nearly four years prior — a month or so before John Hartigan's release from prison in That Yellow Bastard — but he agrees to meet her.
