Parker: The Martini Edition Ready for Drinks
Some people have an affinity for a martini. That affinity appreciates martinis in all sorts of flavors and varieties, but most imbibers fail to enjoy the Parker variety. IDW Entertainment has something in store that will rectify this in Parker: The Martini Edition>
The collection features a section of sketches and preliminaries by the artist, with commentary as well. It includes Darwyn Cooke's first two Parker books in "The Hunter" and "The Outfit." There's even an additional 65 pages of Cooke content including a brand new story.
"The Hunter" and "The Outfit" tell the story of Parker, Richard Stark's classic anti-hero, as he returns to New York to settle the score with his wife and partner in crime after they betray him in a heist gone terribly wrong. After evening the field and reclaiming his prize, the Outfit decide to do some score settling of their own... and learn much too late that when you push a man like Parker, it had better be all the way to the grave.
The 9x13 edition boasts 360 pages and a $75 price tag when it hits stores today. Full press release after the jump.
