Now that you mention it, I remember Cooke...Patrick,<br />Now that you mention it, I remember Cooke in an interview mentioning a plan to combined <i>The Man with the Getaway Face</i> and <i>The Outfit</i>. <i>The Score</i> is one of my favorites, and I hope you're right about <i>Slayground</i> being the final one--that would be fantastic!Levi Stahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094919454842047688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19106928.post-89329224125996583252009-07-28T14:19:55.264-05:002009-07-28T14:19:55.264-05:00Actually, I think the deal Westlake and Cooke work...Actually, I think the deal Westlake and Cooke worked out was that he could do four books, not specifically the first four. Last I heard, the next book will be split between The Man With The Getaway Face summarized in the beginning and the rest adapting The Outfit.<br /><br />Cooke announced the third book will be The Score and the last graphic novel will be Slayground.Patrick Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533224590609446172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19106928.post-74331525400929520022009-07-24T06:09:54.100-05:002009-07-24T06:09:54.100-05:00You should check out Cooke's older graphic nov...You should check out Cooke's older graphic novel "Sabrina's Big Score" -- he actually has Parker in the book, naming him, iirc, Stark. The Westlake fan in me chuckled at the time, so this new series from IDW came as no surprise.<br /><br />Sadly, the Cooke/Stark collaboration is limited to the first four Parker novels. :( I know... who needs "the Mourner" right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
