Found this website and figured folk who haven't ordered the series or part of the series and would prefer a different vendor than Amazon would like it..

FYI, I just merged a couple old threads talking about the comictower page into this thread.

You can now view the first issue of The Gunslinger Born online, if you're one of those who haven't had a chance to buy the series or aren't sure if you want to. Check it out..

I got the hardcover of Gunslinger Born today.
Awesome. My only complaint is the lack of the end-stories...still not sure what crack they were smoking at Marvel that made them decide to not include them.

Agreed.
I was disappointed as well. I hope there's some good stuff in the next arc!

Same here. I was glad to have the entire arc in one book, but I wish they had included the supplemental material as well. I still have all of my individual issues, but it'd have been nice to have them all in a single volume. If they continue to include stuff like this in the comics, and I hope they do, perhaps they could release all of the "extra" stuff in separate hardcover edition when the whole thing is done. now THAT would be a cool single volume.

The Gunslinger's Guidebook has a lot of the supplemental material in it. But they really should have included it. I'm not sure what a supplemental material edition would be called? Dark Tower Mythos?

I'm sure they'll come up with some clever Tower-related name for it. It'd be a cool book though.
I bet that is exactly what they are going to do.

How much? lolI bet that is exactly what they are going to do.
Lets see, I'll put 1000 beam bucks on it

Well, I'm not about to bet against something I hope they will do. It was my idea dammit!
They just better or I might just get put out.

Wait a minute, I've been out of it awhile, are you saying there is more Tower goodness coming to the stands in comic form?

Yes, these first seven, "The Gunslinger Born," were only the first arc of the full series. The second story arc, "The Long Road Home" is due to start its release in March.
Question about The Dark Tower Comic Series
I have recieved The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born Hardcover Comic Book. My question is, are 2-7 going to be in hardback or regular comic book type? and are they going to be a single comic book for each 2-7?
The hardcover that is avaiable now should be 1-7 of Gunslinger Born representing the first arc of the series.
The next arc (The Long Road Home) should run close to the same number of issues and I am sure there will be a hard back version of it as well when the print run is done.

The hardcover is the whole first set. There will likely be a hardcover edition of the second arc as well. There is a section dedicated to the comics here if you want more info.

The second arc is 5 issues, and I think there will be a hardcover omnibus edition, especially since the first one sold so well.
Take note, though, that if you only purchased the hardcover collection you are missing out on a lot of material that wasn't included that was in the individual installments. Robin's mythology tales, most notably, which for me were the best part of the series.

I don't have the hardcover at all yet, the individuals are a must as Bev is saying above, a lot of cool stuff in there.

Shouldn't this thread be merged into one of the threads in the Dark Tower Comic forum?
