So I was just poking around on the Stephen King website (inspired by the Shawshank thread) and found this:

"On-Sale Date Set for The Dark Tower Comic
The latest news from Marvel is that the first issue of The Dark Tower comics will be on-sale on February 7, 2007.

The Dark Tower Sketchbook, featuring character designs, penciled pages, commentary, and a primer on the world of the Dark Tower, will be available free at your local Marvel retailer on December 13, 2006."

I've kind of been under a rock for the past year and this is the first I've heard of this project.

If you're a fan of the series, will you buy the comics?
If you're a fan of comics but haven't read the books, will you read the series?
Does this have potential for major suckage?

I'm definitely marking the date on my calendar.

I may check it out. I just finished reading the series and I think a comic book version might be pretty neat.
