Richard Stark's (and Darwyn Cooke's) Parker

I've been looking forward to Darwyn Cooke's graphic novel adaptation of Richard Stark's The Hunter ever since I heard about it last summer. Now, publisher IDW has just posted 19 sample pages on their website, and I'm pretty much in love with the whole damn thing. Can't wait to read the rest this July.

(Thanks to Robot 6 for the tip.)

Love is not a strong enough word for how I feel about this. Kids should have to recite passages of Stark before bed everynight.

Excellent. I'm loving the whole
unfiltered Milt Caniff/Bernie Kriegstein thing going on here -- couldn't be a better possible choice for the filthied-up Mad Men-era Parker.
