The Gunslinger is Born


This has been my weekend to read my comics and I just finished a doosey: a graphic adaptation of Steven King’s Dark Tower called A GUNSLINGER BORN. Amazing. The art is stunning and the story is an excellent adaptation of the original. This miniseries is comprised of seven issues and covers the time when Roland Deschain becomes a gunslinger and is then sent to Hambry where he falls in love with Susan Delgado and battles the forces of evil at the same time.

The good news is that the story is continuing with the next miniseries in the Dark Tower saga: THE LONG ROAD HOME. It will consist of five issues and if the first series is any indication of what the second series will be, it is money well spent.

The seven issues of THE GUNSLINGER BORN is available in a hard bound edition.
