I just started reading the books and they go by pretty quickly at first. And seeing as this is the first comic series I've ever read, it's a good start.
The sad thing about a movie/tv show for DT is that no actors today could really play Roland. Clint is the best, but he's pushing 90 (I think). Hopefully someone new will come along in time for a movie to not be fucked up.
Jack Nicholson has the perfect grin for the man in black.
Hugh Jackman has the Clint Eastwood face and good acting skills to play Roland.
I love how the combination of this post, and the one above it, has provided enough evidence for me to ignore (aside from mocking) every post you ever make from this point on.

I ordered the first three comics. I am so excited. I have a Micheal Whelan print hanging in my room, and another from..alan clarke? When I get these there will be much merriment and rejoicing.
It is so epic, tv budgets just won't do it justice... Plus, once they hid Lud, and got on Blane the Mono .. the series just went WAY downhill.
Oz?
Poor references to all his other books where he retcon'ed large portions?
Putting himself in the story? As himself. as the key to everything?
I wish I had a scale that had Tommyknockers on one side, and the majority of the DT books past book 4 on the other.. just to see which way it would fall.
Hey, I was listening to this song called "The Killing Moon" by Echo and The Bunnymen. It really really reminds me of the story arc in Wizard and Glass, the one were Roland talks about the Barony of Mejis and Susan Delgado.

Er the Killing Moon is like their most well known song.
I first read the The Wasteland when I was a kid not really knowing it was part 3 of a (at that time) Trilogy. When I went back and caught up with the Gunslinger and the DotT I think I actually lucked out. If I had started with the Gunslinger I don't know if I would have continued on with the series at that age. It is significantly less action packed then The Wasteland...
They kill a big fucking robot bear at the beginning of the book and the bear is shooting them with parasitic snot! How the fuck does a 13 year old kid NOT fall in love with that?!

Just out of curiosity, what do you think he "retconned?"
