Once again, this series produces a very well-done graphic novel. Roland and his ka-tet are captured and developed well, and Roland edges towards the Gunslinger that is chasing the man in black across the desert.

I especially like the depiction of the slow mutants. Mid-world never lets us forget that there was something more advanced and more terrifying in the past. To quote a well-done television series, "This has all happened before, and will happen again." ( )

Not too much to say here. We get to see Gilead before it's fall. Constant Readers know about some of the events if you have read the other Dark Tower books. We have Roland reeling from killing his mother and Cort on his deathbed.

Oh Roland. He is really a tragic figure. I know that King took inspiration from the Tales of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table when writing the Dark Tower. You just see more similarities in the comics than the books when you read about Maerlyn, and Stephen Deschain and his wife, Gabrielle Deschain. I am starting to see Roland a more of a Galahad at times with him and his quest for the Dark Tower.

We get Roland, Cuthbert, and Alain still doing what they can to stand by Roland and Gilead. We also have the character of Aileen Ritter who would be a gunslinger except for her being born a girl and not a boy. And we follow along with Sheemie too.

I don't have much to say besides I really enjoyed this installment. We know what what the Gunslingers are going to go and though you wish it could be different, it is not meant to be. We also get some backstory on the Man in Black and I maybe get the skin crawls. Reading this on my Kindle was fine. I was able to zoom in on panels. I just wish that Amazon had set it like it did the one shot comics I was reading where the panels zoom in automatically for you and then zoom out when you get to the last one on the page.

The illustrations are a bit darker in this one I have to say. It was hard to read people's faces here and there.

The comic flow was a bit haphazard at times before we get to the endpoint.

Looking to read "Battle of Jericho Hill" next. ( )

Wow. Just wow. The title says it all if you are familiar with The Gunslinger. With the Dark Tower, entire.

We never did get the actual tale, just some horrific tidbits, personal tragedies, and the basic idea that the last beautiful city of Mid-World had finally fallen. The last bastion of order and justice.

Well, THIS is the graphic illustration of that glorious fall.

We all see the face of Roland's father in his last moment. We do not forget the faces of the fallen.

Gorgeous art, as always, and the last stand is almost too painful to bear. I'm SO GLAD I got to see it. These comics are doing serious justice to the full story. ( )

The best of the four so far. Because of the books, you know what's coming, but it's still tough to watch. Beautiful artwork, fantastic writing. ( )

I just cannot get enough of Roland, Mid-World, or the Gunslingers. The Marvel series of comics/graphic novels really does a great job of fleshing out Gilead and Roland's life as a teenager, while still keeping King's tone of the books. Highly recommended for all Dark Tower fans. ( )
