Nancy Callahan is a fictional character from the graphic novel series Sin City, created by Frank Miller, based on "Dirty" Harry Callahan by Harry Julian Fink and R. M. Fink.[1][2][3] She first appeared in "The Hard Goodbye" before becoming a more prominent character in later stories, most notably That Yellow Bastard.

Nancy is a stripper working at Kadie's Bar, a popular Basin City strip club populated by several key characters. She is depicted as a sensitive, strong willed, caring woman who occasionally becomes involved in the town's criminal underworld. Her full history is explained in That Yellow Bastard , in which she is rescued from Roark Junior by John Hartigan, and becomes a target of the corrupt Roark family.
