Content warning: misogyny, domestic abuse, suicide [26:54 - 34:02] When a guy in a Mercedes honked at him, Yan said nothing and biked away. Slung over his back was a messenger bag containing some clothes, a snack, and the omnibus edition of "Parker," written by Richard Stark and adapted into comics by Darwyn Cooke. The plan was clear: arrive at the studio by 10am. Greet Nat a very good morning. And then—with the persuasive power of a ten-pound tome—introduce Nat to one of the greatest crime comics of all time. 00:00 - Preamble 03:18 - Unhinged Yant: A Criminal Adaptation 13:35 - Nat's Five Words; Yan's Recap 16:41 - Discussion 46:13 - Yan's Final Questions 51:31 - Up Next on Comic Sans In this episode, Nat reads Richard Stark's Parker — The Hunter, pages 1–51.

Tina Peters is going to prison for trying to have a hand in overturning election results. Tuesday afternoon, two organizations - Free Speech for People and the Coalition for Good Governance - held a virtual press briefing where they and experts like Georgia Tech's Dr. Rich DeMillo and Cal-Berkley's Dr. Richard Stark made the irrefutable case that there was (and still is!) a multi-state plot to overturn the 2020 election for Donald Trump - and with stolen voting system software, may succeed in doing so in a month. Susan Greenhalgh was on the panel and she joined me to tie up any loose ends from that briefing, which I also have audio from for you.

For this week's episode, we knocked some dust off Cacey's To-Be-Read pile and dug into PARKER: THE HUNTER by Richard Stark & Darwyn Cooke! This quintessential hard-boiled crime noir was adapted from the novel of the same name from 1963, and in 2010 it was rendered in a simple, 3 color palette with effortless elegance as only Darwyn Cooke could do it! This introductory story for Parker is all about him returning from an attempted murder, exacting his revenge on all who deserve it, and getting back what he is owed. It's a nonstop odyssey of abject violence, and a masterclass in sequential storytelling

All episodes are made available to Patreon subscribers, the most secertive and sinister of all audiences, one week before their general release. {www.patreon.com/thepinksmoke} Continuing our episodes on Richard Stark's 24-book Parker series, we delve into the third book The Outfit, in which Stark (pen name for the legendary Donald E. Westlake) expands the violent world Parker to epic proportions and offers a smörgåsbord of heists (a metaphorical (not veritable) Swedish buffet of heists instead of pickled fish!) centering minor characters who would grow in importance as the series progressed. We also look in-depth at John Flynn's 1973 adaptation, possibly the most Parker-ish of all Parker adaptations.

"Darwyn Cooke's beautifully stylized artwork perfectly compliments the hard-hitting action as originally written by legendary crime author Richard Stark. Parker is arguably one of the hardest hard-boiled characters in all of crime fiction and the original novels feature stories and prose that are as uncompromising as he is.

Couch Potato Theater: Payback (1999) Theatrical & Director's Cut! Watch the video version of this Couch Potato Theater episode on the Fandom Podcast Network YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@FandomPodcastNetwork Welcome to Couch Potato Theater here on the Fandom Podcast Network! On Couch Potato Theater we celebrate our favorite movies! On this episode we celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the action crime drama Payback (1999). We discuss both the Theatrical & Director's Cut of Payback!   Payback is a 1999 American neo-noir action thriller film written and directed by Brian Helgeland in his directorial debut, and starring Mel Gibson, Gregg Henry, Maria Bello, and David Paymer. It is based on the novel The Hunter by Donald E. Westlake using the pseudonym Richard Stark, which had earlier been adapted into the 1967 film noir classic Point Blank, directed by John Boorman and starring Lee Marvin.   In 2006, director Brian Helgeland issued a director's cut that differs substantially from the version released by the studio. In this episode of Couch Potato Theater we discuss the huge differences of the theatrical and director's cut of Payback (1999).  Fandom Podcast Network Contact Information - The FANDOM PODCAST NETWORK YouTube Channel:  https://www.youtube.com/c/FandomPodcastNetwork - Master feed for all FPNet Audio Podcasts: http://fpnet.podbean.com/ - Couch Potato Theater Audio Podcast Master Feed:  https://fpnet.podbean.com/category/couch-potato-theater - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Fandompodcastnetwork - Email: fandompodcastnetwork@gmail.com - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fandompodcastnetwork/ - X (Twitter): @fanpodnetwork / https://twitter.com/fanpodnetwork   - Tee Public Fandom Podcast Network Store:  https://www.teepublic.com/stores/fandom-podcast-network #FandomPodcastNetwork #FPNet #CouchPotatoTheater #PaybackDirectorsCut #Payback #PaybackMovie #Payback1999 #MelGibson #GreggHenry #MariaBello #DavidPaymer #BrianHelgeland #TheHunterRichardStark #LucyLiu #KrisKristofferson #DeborahUnger #WilliamDevane #JamesCoburn

All episodes are made available to Patreon subscribers one week before their general release. {www.patreon.com/thepinksmoke} Having outmaneuvered the Outfit, shatterproof heister Parker resurfaces with a new face and a new caper. But there might be too much to watch with this armored car knockover in Jersey: a shaky accomplice, a surly waitress planning a double-cross and an oafish chauffeur looking to avenge his murdered employer. Can our criminal anti-hero juggle all these uncertain angles and still come away with a sweet boodle? Continuing our series of episodes on Richard Stark's 24-book Parker series, we jump into the slick and streamlined second book The Man With the Getaway Face, in which Stark (pen name for the legendary Donald E. Westlake) presents a line-up of memorable characters including reliable sidekick Handy McKay, broken heister Pete Skimm and the tragically obstinate Stubbs. How has the Parker character developed since his first adventure? And has this book been adapted into an obscure Mexican film or not?

In 1962, Donald E. Westlake used the pseudonym Richard Stark and published The Hunter, the story of Parker, a betrayed thief who seeks vengeance with more determination than we see from the T-1000 in Terminator 2. Four years later, Lee Marvin starred in John Boorman's Point Blank, an adaptation of The Hunter. The film renamed Parker to Walker, but also reimagined the revenge plot as one of a man unable to recover from trauma.

In which one man thinks he may have a PAYBACK: Director's Cut DVD on a shelf somewhere... Quentin Tarantino uses this chapter of CINEMA SPECULATION to settle some scores with an overzealous hack of a film critic from the 70s, the entire cinematic output of the 80s and lastly with a glancing blow to Mel Gibson in the 90s. The last one is relevant to the screen adaptations of Richard Stark's Parker character who here is played by Robert Duvall. We use this as opportunity to make bald jokes and we think QT would be proud. Enjoy and keep reading along with us from Quentin Tarantino's CINEMA SPECULATION!

We cover one of the all-time great comic book stories: Selina's Big Score. Written and drawn by Darwyn Cooke, this story is a masterpiece of crime fiction, active storytelling, redefining a classic character all with some of the prettiest art you could hope to see. There's echoes of crime fiction author Richard Stark in here (there's a character named after him), but also reminders of classic 1980s superhero crime stories by Frank Miller, Klaus Janson and David Mazzuchelli.

Parker by Richard Stark is an adaptation graphic novel series written and illustrated by the legendary Darwyn Cooke. There is an honor among thieves and the winners are the best players of the game or getting away with the crime. Based on the novels written by Richard Stark, aka Donald Westlake, Parker is a crime thriller series containing notably four stories: The Hunter, The Outfit, The Score, and Slayground along with a few other short tales told through the character of Parker. He is known for being a gritty antihero protagonist that will stop at nothing to accomplish his goal, and in some cases, exacting his revenge. Published by IDW, these stories are some of the last works of Darwyn Cooke who was the the driving force behind this passion project. If you are a fan of crime noir comics, or enjoy his popular DC Comics story: New Frontier, or looking for a refreshing take on heist type of Ocean's 13 the movie series, we highly recommend checking it out.

Richard Stark's "Parker The Score" by Darywn Cooke is a mouthful to say, but a lavishly illustrated, poppy, and brutal example of '60s hardboiled fiction. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/datapluslove/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/datapluslove/support

Parker, that stoic solo brute of independent career criminals, made his debut in the pages of Richard Stark's The Hunter 60 years ago. Stark (the pseudonym under which legendary crime fiction writer Donald E. Westlake chronicled the Parker stories) introduces the world to this ultimate anti-hero at his lowest: backstabbed by a coward, shot by his own wife, ripped off for his take from a bold heist, forced to kill his way out of a prison labor camp and travel penniless cross country to New York, where he expects to enact some savage revenge on those who crossed him. Hosts Christopher Funderburg and John Cribbs revisit this first entry in the 24-book Parker series to examine what made the character so instantly intriguing and why the novel, adapted twice as the Lee Marvin-starring Point Blank and Mel Gibson-ruined Payback, seems weirdly detached from the subsequent books. What does this very readable pulp thriller have to say about lazy corporations and bad luck and monogrammed belt buckles? And the big question of the episode: when does Parker become Parker?

And now a rambling and too brief review of Darwyn Cooke's final adaptation of Richard Stark's classic Parker series.

And now a rambling review of "The Score" by Richard Stark & Darwyn Cooke, Cooke's classic adaptation of of Stark's crime novel as the criminal Parker joins a crew to rob a whole mining town, only for things to naturally not go as planned.

And now a rambling and too brief review of "The Outfit" by Darwyn Cooke, he which he adapts the sequel to "The Hunter" by Richard Stark, as Parker finds himself targeted by the mafia, only for him to turn the tables on them.

The Runners are set up a string to take on the back half of Cooke's adaptations of the mean-talking, hard-hitting Parker novels. Despite his misgivings, Parker is drawn in by a plan for 12 men to rob an entire town in one night. Then, after a job goes sour, Parker finds himself trapped in a shut-down amusement park with only one way out: straight through the local syndicate and law enforcement! Topics of discussion include Amazon's forthcoming Parker media, Cooke's plans for future Parker, and whether or not Atlantis: The Lost Empire is good.

Tweet at us @gottherunspod or email us at gottherunspod@gmail.com!

When Darwyn Cooke realized his dream of adapting Richard Stark's Parker novels into comics, the Runners podcasted about it. We move on to Cooke's loving translations of these crime classics to the graphic medium with the first two of his four adaptations, The Hunter and The Outfit. When professional thief Parker is double-crossed by his wife and partners and left for dead, everyone thinks he's gone for good... until he returns to New York to embark on a murderous quest for revenge and remuneration that will put him at odds with both his betrayers and New York's organized crime scene! Then, when the vendetta from the Outfit refuses to go away, Parker and some trusted colleagues undertake to show them just how dangerous a man who's not afraid to be a no-good rotten crook can be. Topics of discussion include the nature and influence of the Parker character, Scott Dunbier's unique niche in the comics industry, and what exactly Wolverine's catchphrase is.

Episode 93Greetings, Explorers! In this episode we return to the criminal world of Richard Stark's Parker, with The Outfit. IDW published the book in 2010. The late, great Dawryn Cooke adapted and illustrated this book along with three other of the Parker novels. We reviewed the first of his adaptations, The Hunter, in Episode 11. There's also a Catwoman story in Batman: Ego & Other Tails possibly inspired by the Parker character. We looked at that book in Episode 67.The Outfit picks up shortly after The Hunter ended, then skips ahead a year later to 1963. Parker got the money owed to him from The Outfit, the criminal organization he went toe-to-toe with in The Hunter. Parker decides to relax in Miami after a getting a new identity and a surgical operation to change his face. Unfortunately, he's ratted out to The Outfit by one of the few people who knows his real identity. Now The Outfit is hot on his trail. However, what they don't realize is that while they're hunting him, he's looking to take the organization out, from the top down.Dennis, Johnny, and Aubrey dive in by comparing the loads of misogyny and civilian deaths in The Hunter and the lack of either (or a reduction of) in The Outfit. Next, they compare Parker to The Getaway‘s Doc and Roland from The Dark Tower series. Finally, they question if Parker is in any way a “hero”, even an anti-hero. Additional topics include “conveniently good” vs “accidentally OK”; F-M-K Parker; and rather or not readers should skip The Hunter and go straight to this book.

We're getting a little burned out on superheroes, so to change things up we're reading an adaptation of a crime novel written by a prolific novelist under one of his many pseudonyms. That's right, it can only be Richard Stark's Parker: Slayground by Darwyn Cooke! Cooke adapted 4 of these stories and we're reading the final one where our protagonist uses an abandoned amusement park setting to elude some evil mobsters. Then we continue The Korvac Saga with Avengers #175 in which nobody is really sure what to do! Next Time: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

"What kind of man are you?"  So asks one of the people who interact with Jef Costello, existential assassin in Jean Pierre-Melville's Le Samurai (1967).  Mike and Dan try to answer this question by comparing Jef to Richard Stark's serial thief Parker (and subject of John Boorman's Point Blank) and a few other figures.  Melville's masterpiece uses what Dan calls a "symphony of silence" to generate real tension until the final moments, in which Jef finds himself as another performer in the nightclub where the plot began.  So feed that bird, snap that hat brim, and give it a listen!

It's time to take our first trip to Marvel's 2099 universe and meet Miguel O'Hara aka Spider-Man 2099.

We read the first 6 issues of this series from 1992 before continuing our Korvac Saga long read with Avengers 174. Korvac actually shows up! And he explodes Benicio del Toro!!! Next Time: Slayground by Richard Stark adapted by Darwyn Cooke

Tread Perilously begins a month of Women First television shows with an episode of Maude called "The Slumlord." When a man pickets in front of Maude's house, she discovers Walter invested in a slum. After inviting the man in, she harangues Walter into divesting his interest in the building. But the news spreads quickly around the neighborhood with her grandson unable to go to school and frenemy Dr. Arthur Harmon congratulating Walter on his choice to get into property. But what will Maude do when she learns she also signed the papers to the deal? Erik and Justin pick apart the Maude theme song. They also try to determine if the show knows Maude is wrong in this situation. Florida Evans (played by the great Esther Rolle) proves to be the MVP with just two short scenes. Erik determines the Two Absolutes. Justin offers a timely Eurovision update. Maude and Walter's socioeconomic status comes into question -- as does Tread Perilously's adherence to the Podcaster Handbook. The styles of the early 1980s get properly criticized. Both Erik and Justin praise the episode's overall message -- being a slumlord is bad -- but debate how well it lands. Erik invokes Richard Stark's Parker for an explanation of TV inflation and learns a surprising fact about Taxi.
