The critically-acclaimed comic book series, inspired by Stephen King's seminal Dark Tower, returns with the follow up to this year's national best selling sequel with DARK TOWER: TREACHERY #1 (of 6)! After every best-selling issue of the fan-favorite Dark Tower: The Long Road Home, the all-star team of writers Robin Furth & Peter David, artists Jae Lee & Richard Isanove, joined by special guest variant cover artist Gabriele Dell'Otto, present Roland Deschain and his ka-tet after they've safely returned back to Gilead. However, all is not well on the homeward front. Roland has held onto the evil Maerlyn's Graprefruit and grown obsessed with gazing into its pinkish depths regardless of the negative effects it has taken on his body. And what the young gunslinger sees brings may be more frightening than the darkest of nightmares! Meanwhile, Roland's father and a posse are hunting down John Farson and the Big Coffin Hunters after they threatened the life of his son. And when he finally finds them, all may not go as well as expected.
To celebrate the release, DARK TOWER: TREACHERY #1 goes on sale at 12:01 am, September 10th, at participating comic stores around the nation. Plus, Marvel is proud to announce they will be releasing a special top-secret gatefold midnight variant which is bound to please all Dark Tower fans.
