Sometimes there is a protagonist who is a swoon worthy asshole. Sometimes there is a protagonist that is just a straight up asshole who treats women like garbage. Parker is the latter.
I get it. Some fella double-crossed you and took your money and your woman (who you treated like garbage anyway) and hurt your tender man pride. Boohoo.
Luckily my lukewarm feelings towards Parker were (mostly) cast aside to make room for my HUBBA HUBBA feelings towards the awesome artwork. Except the font. Maybe I'm just getting old, but I found it a little hard to read without quite a bit of squinting and re-reading. The story was pretty solid as well once I got past Parker being a real asshole. Very moody and gritty to match the art.
Torn between 3 and 4 stars but going to be a pal and go with 4 Stars.
