Tales From the Short box #189 - PARKER: THE HUNTER by Richard Stark & Darwyn Cooke

For this week's episode, we knocked some dust off Cacey's To-Be-Read pile and dug into PARKER: THE HUNTER by Richard Stark & Darwyn Cooke! This quintessential hard-boiled crime noir was adapted from the novel of the same name from 1963, and in 2010 it was rendered in a simple, 3 color palette with effortless elegance as only Darwyn Cooke could do it! This introductory story for Parker is all about him returning from an attempted murder, exacting his revenge on all who deserve it, and getting back what he is owed. It's a nonstop odyssey of abject violence, and a masterclass in sequential storytelling
