Comic previews: Paul Pope's ADAM STRANGE, Darwyn Cooke's THE HUNTER

Paul Pope's first page (uncolored) of his ADAM STRANGE story for DC's WEDNESDAY COMICS )

Posted for all the Pope fans out there. I confess, I'm not really one myself. It's not that I don't dislike his art (although it's a wee bit off-puttingly hipsterish in style), but I don't quite understand the sometimes-slavish obsession I'd see from some customers at the comic shop.

I mean, Pope's great, but if you want to know which modern comic master *I* slavishly adore along with everyone else? I'll tell you straight:

Darwyn goddamn Cooke, who's adapting Richard Stark/Donald Westlake's PARKER novels into comic form, starting with THE HUNTER )


Click here to read fifteen more preview pages of PARKER on IDW Publishing's site. I'll be all over this book like surly on Lee Marvin.
