Stephen King’s The Dark Tower: The Drawing Of The Three – The Prisoner #1 is scheduled to arrive in comic shops in September 2014 from Marvel Comics and the creative team of writers Robin Furth and Peter David, and artist Piotr Kowalski.

The action shifts from the dusty plains of Mid-World to the mean streets of New York City for a tale of urban crime that is nonetheless set firmly in the realm of King’s Dark Tower works.

“To borrow some successful branding, this is the ‘All-New Marvel NOW’ version of The Dark Tower. As we now travel from The Gunslinger to The Drawing of The Three, we are refocusing our spotlight to explore the histories and events that led to the formation of the Ka-Tet that aided the gunslinger Roland Deschain on his quest to defeat the Man in Black and the Crimson King,” said editor Bill Rosemann. “But instead of encountering Eddie Dean later in his life, as you do in the novel, we zoom back to 1964 and meet him as a toddler, so while we are adapting the second novel, we’re weaving together events in a new way that will hopefully surprise and entertain everyone who has already read the book. We’re ‘assembling the Avengers’ of the Dark Tower universe, but Robin Furth, Peter David, and Piotr Kowalski are doing so in a way that you’ve never imagined.”
