Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Gelungene Adaption/Ergänzung des Zyklus' vom "Dunklen Turm";
(+) die vorliegende englischsprachige (amerikanische) Version verfügt zwar über einen Bucheinband mit Schutzumschlag
(-) der bei den bisherigen über den "Heyne-Verlag" erschienenen deutschsprachigen Versionen (I-IV) hinzugefügte Anhang mit Hintergrundmaterialen, zusätzlichen Bildern und interessanten Ergänzungen fehlt jedoch oder wurde erstmalig weggelassen - hierdurch gestaltet sich diese Version wesentlich schmaler, als bei den mir vorliegenden deutschen Vorgängern.
Der Stil ist wieder detaillierter und düsterer als bei Teil IV - was auf den wieder federführenden Zeichner der Teile I-III zurückzuführen ist.
Lieferung prompt, Ware in tadellosem Zustand, Preis OK.

Another great episode of the Dark Tower story!
29. August 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I pre-ordered this 5 months before it was available for sale. As soon as I received it I opened my Amazon package and read the whole thing. I thought this was another great chapter of the Dark Tower saga. As the entire DT story goes it's not the typical western, sci-fi, adventure, action, drama, so on type of story and it's best attributes are it's flawed characters, deep seeded story line, the underlying community feeling, gritty reality, and fearless dives into the tumultuous world of Mid-World. This chapter did not disappoint in the least. I immediately pre-ordered the next hardcover bound edition to come out in January 2011 and can't wait to see it's interpretation and continuation of the story. I'm just waiting for the DT graphic novel that ends with the words "the man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed" to truly cap off a great adventure!

Sort of anti-climatic
29. August 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This volume felt a little anti-climatic. The previous volume was brilliant and a real sense of significance and urgency came across well. This one is a little bit of a let down. The plot is practically the same as the others in terms of a hero is blackmailed into helping the villains. Also, I'm not so sure how Roland survives at the end. The art is very good & approporiate though. I'm still looking forward to the next volume but I hope it picks up again.

When Gilead falls so do parts of one of the Beams
17. August 2010
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
In the comic books adapted from Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series, Gilead has been crumbling away for a long time now... but it's still a wrench when it's gone. And in "Dark Tower: The Battle of Jericho Hill," we see what is left after it falls -- a wrenching bloody battle, a bleak rotted world, and the strength of a young man who loses everything.
Gilead is gone forever, Midworld is "dying," and the only remnants of it are Roland Deschain and his ragtag ka-tet. Roland's plan: to reach the legendary Dark Tower and use its power "to set things aright," by following the Beam. And nine years later, Roland and the ka-tet reunite on Gilead's ruins, and form a half-hidden rebellion bent on bringing down Farson.
But he is not the only danger to them -- slow mutants, crazy cults, bandits. Worst of all, one of Roland's men has been blackmailed into a treacherous pact with Walter O'Dim, and for the sake of his child he has turned against his own friends. And at long last, the battle comes to the ka-tet at Jericho Hill...
There's a line in the fourth chapter that sums up this entire comic book -- "Sometimes you think you see the light, and you think the dawn is coming... and so you don't realize that, in fact, the darkness is laughing at you because it knows it's closing it." At first it seems like the worst is behind Roland and Co., and there might even be a small sliver of hope.
But of course, anyone who knows what's ahead for Roland knows what will happen in this story. Using King's book as source material, Robin Furth produces four chapters of Robin-Hoodesque fighting and training in secret, and a fifth chapter that is the stuff of Shakespearean tragedy -- murky, blood-spattered battles in which Roland loses even more people that he loves. Yet nothing will break the gunslinger's spirit.
Along the way, we see some grotesque glimpses of the ruined Midworld (a religious sacrifice upon a gas pump), countered with some devastatingly beautiful moments, such as Roland's final moments with Bert ("Then blow that damnable horn"). Most of the gritty, realistic artwork is cloaked in shadows and silhouetted by red mist -- perhaps meant to show the Crimson King's power growing.
Problem? The first fifth of the graphic novel is a rather fragmented, talky part, mostly used for exposition rather than storytelling.
Just when it seems that things are getting better for Roland and his ka-tet, the events of "Dark Tower: The Battle of Jericho Hill" slowly grind them into the dust. A powerful, bittersweet piece of work.
