    Umm... as I've read the short story version, I'm not sure if I'll get this. (Actually I probably will out of curiosity.) On the other hand I've read the Mejis segment in Wizard and Glass before The Gunslinger Born, and that was probably the best of the lot, albeit I don't dislike the others. If it hadn't had some original material though, I probably wouldn't have taken to it so much.

    I wonder if we'll get a comic series of The Walking Waters (or whatever it's called). It is mentioned in Song of Susannah, but we never did learn what that was about.

    Near death from an attack by Slow Mutants, Roland Deschain is taken in by a group of Sisters who specialize in anything but the healing arts.

And in his current, wounded condition, there’s almost nothing the last gunslinger can do to prevent their tender mercies from taking hold.

    I haven't given up, but I'm not sad they don't do variant covers anymore. I will always love the story.

    Great minds think alike ... I've been searching around the web and haven't been able to find anything which includes an issue count.

    I'll update if I can locate it. Every site I can think of is posting the description. If I had to guess - I'd guess a 5 issue arc, but that's just a guess.

    I got the Donald M. Grant version of "Little Sisters of Eluria" and I wanted it to be more of a graphic novel form. I wanted there to be a lot more artwork than there was. I guess I got my wish!

    Default Isanove??

    Is Richard Isanove still attatched to the DT project? All the press I read describe pencils & cover by Luke Ross - but no mention of Isanove.

    I see he's still doing art for the Sheemie single-issue, but nothing on this new arc.

    Who colored this cover, Ross himself? It would be sad to see Isanove go; but change isn't always bad.

    Welcome to the site, BillCarson.

    It is possible that Luke Ross did colors as well as inks. I haven't seen the any other information regarding the issue ( including the info in Previews for ordering ... it just lists Ross ).

    We are lucky enough, however, to have Richard Isanove as a member here at TDT. You can find a link to a Q&A thread with him -- Right Here. We can't gaurantee when he'll log in, but if you look through the thread there, you can see that he's been great about answering our questions.

    Thank you very much, Turtlex,

    Wow! This site is a greater resource than I'd already Imagined.

    For ordering I usually visit Boompanda, which offers free shipping- and also shows the specific dates the issues come to stores (helpful to comic-newbies like me)
