This is a graphic novel adaptation of the tale Roland tells of his youth to the Ka-tet during Wizard and Glass, which has always stood out as one of the highlights of the series to me.The artwork is of a very high standard and the style suits the tone perfectly. Naturally, many of the details are me...
The graphic novel version of the flashback that takes up a majority of Dark Tower 4 is a worthy version, slightly different and a little quicker meaning the characters outside the main group don't tend to get a lot of page time.

Beautifully drawn and compelling. This is the beginning of the Gunslinger story, approved by Stephen King in graphic novel form. It is also my first introduction to Stephen King. I found the storyline a bit confusing, King uses language that is unique to the Gunslinger, so perhaps it would be more e...
Thought there was going to be new material in these pages. Instead, it's a graphic re-telling of Roland's past as seen in the pages of Wizard and Glass (DT #4).
My second and last attempt at trying to enjoy The Dark Tower series has been a frustrating read that has lasted three tiring and frustrating months.Maybe I just don't "get" it, like how I don't "get" [b:The Stand|149267|The Stand|Stephen King|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1213131305s/149267.jpg|1742...
