Stephen King will add comic books to his writing resume when THE DARK TOWER, a monthly series based upon his seven-volume fantasy opus of the same name, debuts next April from Marvel Comics.
The issues will expand upon Roland the Gunslinger’s quest via prequels and other original stories, rather than strict adaptations of the books. Handling art duties will be Eisner-award-winning artist Jae Lee (TRANSFORMERS/G.I. JOE, ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR). A hardcover edition collecting the first six issues will be available by year-end 2006.
