Hello Everyone, I'm Superfluous. Okay, what brought me here is the SKMB being out of commission. So how is everyone?
How did you discover The Dark Tower?
I read my first Stephen King book, Insomnia, in the fall of my seventh grade year. I had seen a few of his movies and they scared the kaka out of me and I wanted more. Some years later (it's tough to say how many, for a while i got into some bad stuff and time became a face on the water as they say) I was helping clean an old house and came across a battered copy of The Gunslinger. I devoured the rest of the series in short order and became a hooked through the bag tower junkie.
Who is your favorite character?
It's a tie between Cuthbert and Eddie. They're just both such damn smartasses!!
What's your favorite book?
That's tough to call because years ago I stopped looking at them in terms of individual book and called the entire series one. But if I had to pick a favorite section, it would probably be The Gunslinger because it actually changed my life and the way I look at the world.
How old are you?
Just hit the big Three Oh!
Where are you from?
Born and raised in NE LA. Currently living in southern AL, with a two year layover in Waco, TX.
Do you have a nickname?
Several. Wilbur Force is my favorite. My friend John gave it to me.
This was a great idea by the way, Maerlyn. Thanks for the trip down DT memory lane!
Welcome, Wilbur!
I loved your introduction, man.
Make yourself at home!

Welcome to the family all newcomers to the site!!!
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
I had read two King books when I was a tween. Cycle of the Werewolf & The Gunslinger. In hindsight, I'm not sure I actually read Gunslinger. Too long ago. Fast forward to last year. My wife & I decide to do a book trade. She'll read something I suggest & vice versa. I'm a huge Star Wars fans & that's what got me back into reading as an adult. I had her read a Star Wars trilogy referred to as the Thrawn trilogy. She had me read The Stand. I loved it. I remembered The Gunslinger & I had been collecting the Dark Tower comics because I'm a big comic book fan so I decided to jump in. I just finished The Dark Tower a few days ago & decided to join the site. I still have the comics & Little Sisters of Eluria to read though.
Who is your favorite character?
Roland. But I love Oy!

I really liked Wolves of the Calla but I don't like to play favorites. I look at it as one story. Not seven.

I've been on this site for a little while, overwhelmed by all the information and vast knowledge that is available. I am finally getting around to introducing myself, sorry for the delay.
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
I have had the whole series sitting on my shelf for awhile now. I read The Gunslinger and Drawing of Three almost 10 years ago and ofr some reason that was as far as I got. I now have time again to read and have started over from the beginning and i am currently half way thru The Wastelands.
Who is your favorite character?
I would have to say either Eddie or Jake.
What is your favorite book?
I am only on book 3 and they have all been great. If I have to pick one of three I have read I would say The Wastelands. I will let you know when I finish them all what is is.
How old are you?
40 this month....
Where are you from?
