Idk if you’ve ever read Darwyn Cooke’s adaptation comic book of Parker. He does the first 4 books and they’re beautifully drawn
You give a shit about Parket(especially as the series continues) bc for all the books about the "good guys" winning we finally see the crimal side of things and how a top tier criminal can think and operate and truely make a career out of it...what he wants he takes with no pity or remorse or regard for anyone or any thing...its fascinating and I cant get enough of it
I love The Man with the Getaway Face.
the only version i give a shit about is the lee marvin version. the stark and gibson versions are parasites whose victims include innocent people.
It was also a Mel Gibson film called Payback. It's superior to Point Blank.
