[Funky Dredd]

Those that are fans of The Dark Tower series will want to go to there local Marvel comics dealer and pick up the free sketch book that was released today. The comics will be published in February but this is a sneak peek into the sketches. To find a comic book dealer in your area that is going to have these then visit http://www.marvel.com/catalog/?book_id=5656

Apparently the first seven comics will be retelling Roland's Mejis story in Wizard and Glass. After those there will be a new story of Roland's life between then and Jericho Hill.

I got my sketchbook today. One to look at and one to put with the SK collection, I also got a door poster that matches the first comic cover which I am going to frame and put in the den with all of my SK books.

Re: Stephen King The Dark Tower Comics

No problem Lorn!

Apparently there is going to be 23 comic books for this. Here is the second cover. I believe this to be the Crimson King, it also could be one of the sisters...
