Re: RARA-AVIS: Your Favorite Tough Guys

A lot of good ones have been mentioned already, but for series characters I would nominate James Crumley's C.W. Sughrue & Milo Milodragovitch. As for one-off characters I really like the character of Marty Bond from Ed Lacy's THE MEN FROM THE BOYS, which I read recently--an ex-cop fired for brutality who acts as a pimp & a shake-down artist & has a death-wish. One of the best I've read from Lacy.
