Wendy is a fictional character in the graphic novel series Sin City, created by Frank Miller. In the 2005 film adaptation, she is played by Jaime King. She first appears in The Hard Goodbye followed by appearances in A Dame to Kill For and And Behind Door Number Three?.

Appearance[]

She and her sister, Goldie are identical twins, both with blond hair and dark eyes. They are femme fatales and among the prettiest women in the series.

The Hard Goodbye[]

One night, Goldie offers sexual services to Marv, and he immediately falls in love with her. They spend the night together, but in the morning Marv wakes up to find Goldie lying in bed next to him, murdered. He hears the sound of the police outside the building, coming for him. He escapes, killing many of the police as he does.

Wendy and Gail capture Marv, believing that he killed Goldie. They tie Marv in a chair and try to torture a confession out of him, but he unties himself and Wendy realizes that he is not her sister's murderer. Later they discover that Cardinal Roark used Kevin, a very agile cannibal, to kill Goldie and frame Marv. Wendy and Marv go to the Roark farm, and while Wendy waits in the car, Marv kills Kevin. Marv finds and kills Cardinal Roark, but is seen doing it by the police. He is sentenced to the electric chair. When Wendy comes to visit him in prison, Marv mistakenly calls her Goldie and apologizes. She answers "Call me Goldie" and they kiss madly. Later, after several failed attempts, the authorities manage to electrocute Marv.

A Dame to Kill For[]

When Marv and Dwight McCarthy go to Old Town, Goldie offers sexual services to Marv. This is before The Hard Goodbye.

And Behind Door Number Three?[]

This is a short story about Gail and Wendy (who's now wearing Marv's necklace) setting a trap for a man they suspect is 'carving up' girls in Old Town.

Film appearance[]

They are portrayed by Jaime King in the 2005 film adaptation as the two twins in the second story in the film The Hard Goodbye. She reprises her role in the 2013 sequel based on A Dame to Kill For.
