I was a bit wary of this one...as I'm not hugely into graphic novels, but the completist in me said I had to have new Stark...er..even if it's old Stark and done by someone else.
I gotta say it's fantastic, and breathes new life into the story (seeing I've already read it.) Probably the closest thing we'll ever get to a proper Parker movie.
Well worth the price. I hope Cooke gets to do some more.
Cheers,
Steve

I picked up Richard Stark's Parker: The Hunter, Adapted and Illustrated by Darwyn Cooke today. Judging by the first third, it's a very faithful adaptation. I'm enjoying it.
I also picked up the new Pynchon, but probably won't get to it for a while.
