Know and love Hecker; will check out these last two.

I just realized that I've posted the same list (more or less) twice in this thread. I can't tell if my memory is going out the door or I was superdrunk for the first list.



Oh silly purple, but yeah Ben Frost's work is stellar, hope you like it
