Kurzbeschreibung
A BOLD NEW CHAPTER IN STEPHEN KING'S THE DARK TOWER SAGA! Twelve years have passed since the fateful Battle of Jericho Hill and the fall of the gunslingers. Since the Affiliation's resistance against John Farson became little more than a faint memory. Since the friends that stood by young Roland Deschain burned to ash in the Good Man's razing of Gilead. But Roland survived...and now he stalks the desert, hunting the spectral Man in Black in his quest for the Dark Tower. Join Robin Furth, Peter David and Richard Isanove as they welcome superstar artist Sean Phillips (INCOGNITO) into the ka-tet of creators entrusted by Stephen King himself to bring the adult adventures of his most personal creation to life! COLLECTING: Dark Tower: The Gunslinger #1-5

If You do like Novels by Stephen King and if You do like Comics - or so called Graphic Novels - I bet You would like this one: THEGUNSLINGER - THE JOURNEY BEGINS. A good story, based on Stephen Kings DARK TOWER characters and excellent drawings.
THE JOURNEY BEGINS contains everything a Graphic Novel needs: A cool protagonist, a lot of shooting and killing, a bit of love and friendship and the search for a destiny Roland don´t knows.
Buy it and you will like it.

Journey of the last gunslinger
20. Februar 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Gilead is in ruins, and all the gunslingers but one are dead. "Dark Tower: The Gunslinger, Vol. 1 - The Journey Begins" launches Roland Deschain on his lifelong quest to find the Dark Tower and avenge his people. It's a haunting, bloodspattered story graced by solid artwork, and a lingering sense of tragedy.
Several years after the last round of comics, Roland stops at the home of a young hermit and his pet raven. Over dinner, Roland recounts what happened after Farson's men killed his people -- he carried the dying Aileen back to Gilead, and finds his onetime home haunted by treacherous ghosts, horrible memories... and oh yeah, grotesque Slow Mutants.
So he sets out on a quest to find John Farson, and ends up wandering into a nearby town with a faithful billy-bumbler. And since he's Roland Deschain, trouble finds him -- he's barely met the EXACT DOPPELGANGER of his dead girlfriend Susan than a bunch of Not-Men kidnap her to turn her into one of them.
The brilliance of "Dark Tower: The Gunslinger, Vol. 1 - The Journey Begins" is that it taps into one of the most primal, terrifying human fears -- that our family, friends and home will all be destroyed, leaving us alive but devastated. And though the entire story is told in flashback by a grizzled, hardened Roland, it doesn't lessen its soul-wrenching power.
And Robin Furth handles the story in a way that is tragic without being melodramatic -- it's splattered with blood, darkness and chaos, and there are some truly tragic scenes where Roland loses even more loved ones in his journey (NOOOOOO! BILLY-BUMBLER!). Roland's farewell speeches to those loved ones are gut-wrenchingly raw, yet very beautiful.
The only major flaw in the story is the introduction of Susan Delgado 2.0. It's handled nicely, with Roland being given a "second chance" if he abandons his quest, but it feels contrived.
And we see two different Rolands in this story. One is a grizzled, hardened survivor who has moved on, with all his wounds healed. And the other is a young boy who has just become a man, with raw emotional wounds and a fear of getting too close to other people. Aileen is given a powerful exit from the story, and... BILLY-BUMBLER! Such a sweet innocent unselfish creature.
"Dark Tower: The Gunslinger, Vol. 1 - The Journey Begins" is both an ending and a beginning. Gilead has ended, but the Gunslinger's quest has begun.

Little disappointed, but still collecting!
20. Oktober 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I'm an enourmous fan of this series and the graphic novels sealed my love for it even more. I collected and read each book religiously as they started being produced in 2007.
When this latest edition came out, I was very excited to start the main journey, to see in my hands what I saw in my head when I read the books years before, but I was disappointed in everything. The story wasn't concrete, it jumped around and I still couldn't really tell you what happened in there because it was just so unremarkable. The art in any piece of fiction is usually the saving grace for me, being such an artistic individual...but the inconsistency of the style made it about as easy to look at as it would be to swallow a strangely flavored spoonful of some questionable looking, possibly far-expired gelatin....
I fell in love with the dark, sinister style of Jae Lee in the first few books, it surprised me at first but ended up fitting so well with the style of the story. Once it changed I thought it may take getting used to, but I'd be able to accept and love it just the same....I'm still waiting for that to happen, and each time a new book is released, my excitement is dampened a little by the thought of that terrible new art I'll have to look at.
Overall as a series, these books are fantastic and a must-read for any proper Tower Junkie, but this book by itself is a bit of a runt in the litter....here's to hoping the next is an improvement.

Continued story line that once again has great artwork. Collection is similar to others released and is a "must have" for the person who wants the pictures to go with the story.
