Parker: the Hunter

RICHARD STARK’S PARKER: THE HUNTER by Darwyn Cooke (IDW)
Cooke’s unabashedly retro style (particularly this less polished version) fits this crime noir graphic novel like a tailored suit. A supremely unlikable protagonist doesn’t hamper the enjoyment of this visceral tale of revenge and retribution. Booze, broads, blood and betrayal make for a read that’s not for fanboys only!
