Stephen King’s site today informed me that Dark Tower: The Long Road Home #1 will be arriving in stores at 12:01 AM, March 5th, 2008 (at participating comic stores). The writing crew of Robin Furth & Peter David and artists Jae Lee & Richard Isanove will be joined by special guest variant cover artist (and Marvel Editor-In-Chief) Joe Quesada to create the second limited series inspired by Stephen King’s epic Dark Tower series.
Just like the first one, The Gunslinger Born, this limited series will be overseen by Stephen King himself. Just like the first one, Dark Tower: The Long Road Home explores a chapter in Roland’s life only hinted at in the novels. Just like the first one, I expect it to be friggin sweet, kick total ass and to be just what the doctor ordered. One can never get enough of the Dark Tower mythos – not me at least.
Is it March yet?
