I have to say that this is two in a row in terms of Cooke's adaptations of Parker that failed to impress me. It's a bit saddening given that it was because of Cooke that I really took notice of the character and world. In this edition especially the book is far superior to the graphic novel. The novel was taught with fantastic suspense, where this one just feels like we're waiting around to see how well he get out of this scrape. It's underwhelming, sadly. If anyone out there reads this and loves it - please do me a favor and suss out the source material - likely available at a public library near you!
