I don't really get the graphic, specifically how a story like The Body shows up in context with The Dark Tower at all. Most of the Castle Rock stories are good, quality, non-supernatural stories. Are they included simply because of the setting? And if so, what's the relevance?

We wanted to name our son Jack after the protagonist. Then again, for those of you who know my last name, we decided against it for obvious reasons.

That graphic is awesome and I've read almost everything on there.

Do you live in the Burgh area? Half Price Books on McKnight had all 7 for sale last time I was there. Ollies also has some.

I think they needed another subject to reach the #13 and Castle Rock was the easiest to plug in. It looks like it has a small connection to Derry so....I guess?

Knowing your last name, I'm even more puzzled now as to why you didn't go with Jack :lol:

I found a business card at a Barnes and Nobles.
it said SOMBRA GROUP with a stylized eagle in blue and white and beneath that logo it says Technology Corporation.
Then it says in black SOMBRA Group underlined.
Then in red letters it says TECHNOLOGY FOR A BOLD TOMORROW.
THE BUSINESS CARD is for Richard P. Sayre.
Richard.Sayer @ SOMBRAGroup.com
There is a phone number (646) 801-8670
A little girl comes on and quotes the Turtle poem from the dark tower.
On the back there is the sigu of the crimson king and something written in the high speech at the bottoml

The Dark Tower TV series will adapt Stephen King's Wizard and Glass
MRC and Sony Pictures, which is releasing the film, have committed not just to financing a pilot but a full run of between 10 and 13 episodes, depending on how the scripts and story arcs develop. The Dark Tower show will begin shooting in 2017 with plans to premiere it in 2018, ideally around the time the film becomes available on cable or streaming services.

You should read The Waste Lands asap, then wait 6 years for book four like the rest of us.

Despite reading most of King's books as they came out, I waited on The Dark Tower series until it was finished. No regrets.
