Darwyn Cooke ranks among the top three of my favorite creators working today, and definitely in my top ten of all-time. Once I heard he was adapting several of Stark's prose Parker novels into graphic novels, my brain could barely comprehend the awesome. Chock full of grit, the Parker books are among the best in crime fiction, and thanks to Darwyn Cooke, the same can now be said about those stories when it comes to comics. There are few tales as engaging, action-packed, and brutal as Parker's. Once you read this, you'll be compelled to agree.

So we hear you're looking for something to read. That's great because we've got a ton of recommendations on what comics you should be checking out. Every week we'll pick out one gem from the longboxes or trade shelves that you absolutely cannot miss. We're talking mainstream, indie, full storylines, single issues, and beyond. If there's a comic we enjoy that we think you will too, you'll hear all about it on Read This Now!
