I may disagree with you about the quality of the stories, but I can certainly respect your opinion :cowboy:
I've recently hooked my wife onto the comics, which we are reading together at the...
It's also okay to say that people enjoy it and, yes, they do count it as a legitimate part of the Dark Tower mythos.
The story does make sense, for myself and others. It is, among other things, a...
I really enjoy the comics and it's good to see that, even when we've moved on to the adaptations of the existing books, we still get new never before seen DT material in the form of added scenes in...
I doubt I'll be getting this series (I'm mainly interested in new stories as far as the comics are concerned) but that cover is gorgeous![/QUOTE]
If you're interested in new stories, I'd very...
Tis very good. Here are the DT related tracks:
Crimson King - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDC0rH6MX0s
The Gunslinger - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wssAxRd0BA0
Terror Train -...
It might be worth pointing out that the Crimson King was a seducer at various points in the series. Even in DT7, where his mindset is arguably at it's most unhinged, the Red King lulls Patrick to...
Brilliant news! Hopefully the full series will eventually be done. I hope we can look forward to extra/new scenes akin to those we got in the Wizard and Glass adaption. Also hoping for more Dark...

Don't worry, I get what you're saying :).
The thing is though if we use the interpretive manner, Flagg's multiple appearances throughout time and space could be interpreted as fulfilling that...
Thank you :).
And you do right. I love debating these type of questions in fiction but at the end of the day I firmly believe that an individual is always right in what they personally believe the...
You don't have to look for anything, it leaps off the page/screen.
I certainly didn't try and fit pieces of a puzzle together. In fact, as mentioned in my first post, I was trying everything to...
Why not, it's worked before!
I remember in thedarktower.net days having discussions about continuity errors, one of which was about Roland's grandfather. He turned out to have three - Alan Veriss...
Not only is Leland Gaunt written as a completely different character to any other aspect of Flagg, not only is the thrill of trade Gaunt's very reason for being (very unlike Flagg), not only his is...
Not at all! Unlike Flagg and Linoge, there are no similarities between Flagg, Gaunt, and Pennywise. Their natures are completely different.
Leland Gaunt is always a salesman. His MO never changes....
Not at all to my mind. After all, King doesn't mention confirmed aliases of Flagg in the Dark Tower too, or their actions. For example, Russell Faraday, Browson, Bill Hinch, Robert Franq, Richard...
It definitely wasn't Walter. Maerlyn says one of the Red King's emissaries caught him. We don't know who the emissary was - could be just an original character or, if you like finding connections, it...
Original intent is irrelevant. What matters is how it fits in with the entirety of the series now, not how it fits in with outdated editions.
Not at the time but this is what the term "retcon" is...
I used to think that Andre Linoge was an original character, but after rereading every King story last year, it became apparent to me that Andre Linoge was another facet of Randall Flagg.
Here are...
Yes, they are.
As already explained, the section on Flagg in the second book is irrelevant to the discussion as at this point Roland doesn't know he is another version of Walter/Marten.
Here's...
