German Commentaries: Mark

There seems to be a slight neglect of the Gospel of Mark by the Germans in recent decades in view of the dearth of Markan commentaries. However, I recommend these three commentaries.

Gnilka's commentary:
1978. Das Evangelium nach Markus. EKKNT. Düsseldorf, Zürich; Neukirchen-Vluyn: Benziger; Neukirchener Verlag.

Pesch's commentary:
1979. Das Markus-Evangelium. Darmstadt: Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellschaft.

Schnackenburg's two-volume commentary:
1984. Das Evangelium nach Markus. 4th ed. Geistliche Schriftlesung. Düsseldorf: Patmos-Verlag.

Does this mean that if my German is good enough, I've found a shoe in for a book project?!?! : )
