I have a hard time with noir stories. The conventions and general plot concepts just do nothing for me. This was no different, but Darwin Cooke’s artwork was, as always, great! (

Good book. I liked Cooke's art a lot more here than I did in New Frontier vol 1. The story seems a little thin - I wonder if it unfolds a little slower in the novel.

To be honest, I think this would be a 3.5* book. But the star ratings are pretty arbitrary anyway.

From Durning Library - last due date 8th October 2011.

Excellent and gorgeous graphic novel adaptation of [a:Richard Stark|13634|Richard Stark|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1287877064p2/13634.jpg]'s first Parker novel, and nearly as good as the original. The artwork perfectly matches the story. Looking forward to the rest of the series. (

Maybe it's because I'm not into the whole hard-boiled crime genre in the first place, but I wasn't that into this graphic novel. Sure, it's based on a classic con-man and has lots of action, but I found the revenge plot to be very cliched. (

Fabulous art, average writing. (

Mr. Cooke depicts his characters with such emotion and conveys so much with gesture and composition that, except for the specifics of the hijacking, you could almost follow the story by the images alone. And when the words and graphics are in harmony, the effect is deliciously brutal

Imagine Mad Men, with its cool stylishness, but with characters even more depraved and rapacious, and you'll have an idea for what's in store when you read The Hunter.

Normally, a straight genre tale where the only point is how many people Parker can kill before he gets what he thinks is coming to him wouldn’t be for me, but although I’m not the audience, I can see the appeal. And the art is beautiful.
