I meant to note this some time ago and just plain forgot. Over at Almost Darwyn Cooke’s Blog, they held a “Draw Parker” contest to celebrate the release of Cooke’s adaptation of The Hunter. You can view all of the entries (and a slideshow) here. As you can tell from the above image, there are some pretty neat ones.
Sorry I missed it! I hope none of you aspiring artists were cheated of an opportunity as a result.
Update: Let’s credit the artist. His name is Scott Brothers.

Those are awesome! It’s great to see the resurgence in interest in Parker. You can see that some of the artists were clearly already Parker fans and wrote images from some of the other books.
Hey and I’m loving your blog. Glad you are keeping it up. I’ve been busy too and haven’t been able to comment as much as I would like, but I’ve been reading all your posts and enjoying them immensely. Thanks!
I dunno, I never pictured Parker as Fred Flintstone.
