As some of you well know, Rhea caused Roland much pain during his youth in the Dark Tower series. I was kinda disappointed to see that there no confrontation between them later in the series, I would have liked to see Roland exact his revenge against her. Does it show what happens to her in the comics from Marvel?

Hi! welcome to the board!
Good question, but I have not read the comics as of yet. I'm sure someone will know the answer though.

According to Roland, in Wizard and Glass, he "pays her a visit" later in his journeys.

I wanted to speculate that maybe she's in the land of Na'ar, cause of where we hear her voice later on in the story, speculate cause the other voices heard there are something, the gramophone, or something. But that leads to more speculation cause not all the voices are certifiably resting, like Elmer or Laurie/Megan Chambers.

That particular situation where Rhea's voice is heard, along with Elmer Chambers, and Eddie's brother, is because whatever is there picks out what is in your head, and amplifies it back at you. Kinda like a possessed tape recorder.

I believe he "settled her hash" so to speak but it mentions nothing in the comics up to the most recent one.

Oh man, this is one of the Tower stories that I wish SK would write! The other one is Jericho Hill. I don't want to read that one in comic book form, I want SK to put his pen to paper and tell this tale the way it deserves to be told.

I'm fairly certain that the guns of the Eld killed her.

She is also mentioned in The Eyes of The Dragon.

Because of her mention in Eyes of The Dragon it makes me thing she is/becomes another transdimensional-evil-uberwizard like Walter.

I always assumed that the eyes of the dragon was set long before DT, and that Roland's encounter was in her formative years,

Page 606 of my trade paperback edition:

""...While I lay fainted by my mother's corpse, that someone came in and took the wizard's glass away."
"Rhea?" Eddie asked.
"I doubt she was so close in her body... but she had a way of making friends, that one. Aye, a way of making friends. I saw her again, you know." Roland explained no further, but a stony gleam arose in his eyes. Eddie had seen it before, and knew it meant killing.""

I suspect that we will hear of her last days at some point. Also, while she was in pretty dire straits when she is last seen in the books, she's nothing if not resourceful enough to recuperate her body and powers.

Roland mentions the Kingdom of Delain (Eyes of the dragon and i prob spelled that wrong haha) in the DT novels as having problems before his own kingdom. He also says, while speaking of the matricide he performed, that it was a plot between Rhea and Martin. He Then mentions the fact that those same guns ended Rhea's life. (bare with me i am paraphrasing) So Rhea is physically dead. The cave was doing its magic that it always did (according to the Mani) and using the thoughts in Roland's head to mess with him. My own assumption (this isn't anything Mr King wrote) while reading is that the bend o' the rainbow was a spiritual vampire so to speak and Rhea's existence isn't a physical one anymore. If anything, she exists as a servant to the glam she coveted. I hope that helped! :)
