I enjoyed it overall. Great ideas, particularly on King's 'mind eating itself' themes. Generally scary sound effects.
I agree concerning the ending. Some kind of twist would be nice.Spoiler:

Amazon's listing says it includes issues 01-04, but when they'll be released as comics is anyones guess, Marvel have the comic releases up-to the end of Oct online now so either there not bothering with comics or they just haven't decided when to release them yet.
Thankee.
I did a pretty good search of Marvel's site, as well ... but to be honest, they don't have the most comprehensive data there.
Could be they do not intend to release paper issues. Who knows?!?
As I find info, I'll update here and I encourage everyone to do the same!

Remember, Remember, The Fifth of November, The Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot.
Oh, I did NOT need to know about this.

I can't wait for this! I sure hope my local comic shop will have this. I would rather pay them for it than the "big chain" stores like Borders or Barnes N Nobel.
Well... needless to say, I've pre-ordered. Now I begin holding my breath that they don't release multiple "exclusive" covers or something.
ETA: I also just double checked the Previews Catalog ( comic distributor ) and there's no mention of individual issues.

I've noticed it's a 'Premiere' release, I was hoping they would give it the Marvel Zombies treatment and give it a 'oversized' release!. Oh well.
Yes, so probably very similar to the DT comics hardcovers.

I checked with Marvel and they say this info isn't correct.

Lilja - Do you know what part is incorrect?
I got the info in the first post right from Amazon.
( ETA: I just checked Amazon again, and it's still available for pre-order with the info listed )
Curiouser and curiouser....

I didn't get any details but I would guess that it's the date that's incorrect, and maybe that the single issues will be released first.

Thank you, kindly.
I'll keep my eye on Marvel's site for info.

It's almost the end of the month, and there is nothing on Marvel's website...

Unfortunately, nothing new at all.
Amazon still says "accepting pre-orders" with a release date of October 29th.

Would someone be kind enough to ask on stephenking.com whether Marvel are still planning on going ahead with a comic+hc release for this.
I can never post on there because the Ms. Mod is never on when I am
