THE STORY:
“The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.” With those words, millions of readers were introduced to Stephen King’s Roland—an implacable gunslinger in search of the enigmatic Dark Tower, powering his way through a dangerous land filled with ancient technology and deadly magic. Now, in a comic book personally overseen by King himself, Roland’s past is revealed! Sumptuously drawn by Jae Lee and Richard Isanove, adapted by long-time Stephen King expert Robin Furth (author of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower: A Concordance) and scripted by New York Times Best-seller Peter David, this series delves deep into Roland’s origins—the perfect introduction to this incredibly realized world, while long-time fans will thrill to adventures merely hinted at in the novels. Be there for the very beginning of a modern classic of fantasy literature!

I've always wondered what a Dark Tower comic series would look like. It certainly reads like a good graphic novel just like King's Eyes of the Dragon. The book sounds promising since Peter David and Jae Lee are involved.

I am not only looking forward to a DT comic, but holding onto the hopes that this DC comic will get snatched up and made into a movie as well. :D :lol:

The Dark Tower series is truly Epic.

I'm more hoping that if a movie is made, it'll be more to the novel than the comic book.
