"The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed." With those words, millions of readers were introduced to Stephen King's Roland - an implacable gunslinger in search of the enigmatic Dark Tower, powering his way through a dangerous land filled with ancient technology and deadly magic.

Now, in a comic book personally overseen by King himself, Roland's past is revealed!

Sumptuously drawn by Jae Lee and Richard Isanove, adapted by long-time Stephen King expert Robin Furth (author of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower: A Concordance") and scripted by "New York Times" bestseller Peter David, this series delves in depth into Roland's origins - the perfect introduction to this incredibly realized world; while long-time fans will thrill to adventures merely hinted at in the novels.

Be there for the very beginning of a modern classic of fantasy literature!

This book collects "Dark Tower: The Gunslinger Born", numbered 1-7.
