The Dark Tower: The Long Road Home
Originally published in 2008 as a five part series from Marvel Comics. Writers: Robin Furth (adaptation), Peter David (script). Art by Jae Lee and Richard Isanove. Hardcover.
Treading uncharted territory in the Dark Tower mythos, The Long Road Home finds Roland’s ka-tet intact but unraveling. In the shadow of the shocking murder of Susan Delgado — the young woman who had won Roland’s heart and carried his child — the trio of young gunslingers track a road out of Hambry fraught with peril. While Alain and Cuthbert try to keep ahead of the pursuing Big Coffin Hunters and cut through the formidable menaces that stand in their way, Roland lies in a coma, his consciousness trapped in Maerlyn’s Grapefruit, a mystical sphere inside of which many important secrets are locked; its revelations may bring death — or worse!
And while Roland’s ka-tet is absorbed in its own drama, a great evil is emerging in the Dogan, as the boy Sheemie accidentally stirs a long-slumbering spirit that portends great evil.
