    Default The Stand... Part TWO!

    So, I hear King say he may do a sequel to the Stand... with Flagg dead... what do you guys think of this? Where could he take this story? Could it be good? Thoughts?

    Wow, I have real mixed feeling on this. The Stand is my favorite book so it sounds good but will it live up to my expectations?

    When did he say that? The only new Stand news I've heard over the past week was that he may write a Stand story involving
    Spoiler:
    Frannie falling into a well after the events of The Stand.

    Where did you hear that Flagg is supposed to be dead? Divemaster had said King indicated the story would be about Stu, Frannie, and Kojak.

    He was technically killed in another story…
    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    Me.

    Flagg never dies.
    Perhaps in one world, but not in all of them.

    Right. What happened to Flagg in DT VII does not necessarily match up with the Stand of our world timeline.

    I would love to read more about Stu, Frannie, and Kojak. I'm sure King will come up with good adventure, horror, sympathy, etc. And a good antagonist (Flagg or other) and supporting characters. I have faith in King's ability to keep these characters and this story interesting and engaging. Of course, there's no guarantee King will ever get around to putting the story to paper. But it's good to know it's in his head at least.

    I am certain Flagg had many offspring.
    All that's left of what we were is what we have become.

    He is Legion. He "died" in the stand and arose again. No reason to think that his death in TDT VII was not a temporary set back as well.
    28 in 23 (?)!!!!

    63 in '23!!!!!!!!!!









    The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
