    Default New Series in 2010

    Marvel announces a new chapter in the Dark Tower graphic fiction adaptation—Dark Tower: The Gunslinger beginning in 2010. Following the climactic Battle of Jericho Hill, Roland Deschain now begins the most important journey of his young life. The New York Times Best-Selling creative team of Peter David, Robin Furth and Richard Isanove return for a new arc exploring the life of Roland Deschain, revealing how and why he began his pursuit of the man in black across Mid-World’s Mohaine Desert!

    Just wanted to confirm this, folk on the DT.Com (including me) are wondering if this is supposed to be a prequel to Little Sisters of Eluria, following his travels from Jericho Hill up through LSOE and The Gunslinger? This is great, Ms. Mod thanks for sharing.

    Don't make me use the quivering lower lip and big puppy eyes on you, Ms.Mod!

    I thought it would be a retelling of The Gunslinger and wasn't going to get it for that reason. However, the blurb on that link makes me think it will be a bridge series, which is certainly welcome.

    I'd appreciate confirmation too though before shelling out. If it is, a bridge I think it should be renamed though as many people would get the wrong idea concerning the contents.

    I like this idea, I've always wondered exactly what spurred him to actively seek the tower.

    Yes, I'm really looking forward to this!
    Still, it's too bad King doesn't write these himself

    I agree that it's too bad Sai King isn't writing these himself. I'd probably take the plunge if it he was, but instead am holding off.

    The problem I have with the graphic novels is their too slow. If you were to purchase the individual issues then it takes too long for the story to move along. For those of you old enough to remember the phone advice lines or chat lines? You paid $2.99 or more a minute and maybe the person on the other end talked real slow.
    That's how it felt buying issue after issue of Marvel's Graphic Novel. Even, my local comic book guy thought so when he asked why I stopped. "Yep, it needs to move faster"
    Roland or Mr. King needs to twirl his finger to the comic writers and artist to move the story along.
    Or you can wait and but the hard bound edition!

    This is explained better in Wizard and Glass, towards the end...
