Originally, I broke the story [The Gunslinger Born] into eight comic books, but when the editors at Marvel thought we should make it more compact, I managed to cut back to seven.

As you know, transforming such a big book [The Gunslinger Born] into graphic novel format is really a process of translation.

Sometimes, as I'm following a story thread to its ultimate conclusion, I find that I start swimming in deep water and need to run an idea by Steve [King].

Steve [King] has been incredibly supportive. He's also really good about getting back to me when I have questions about plot or characterization.

In order to capture Mid-World for new readers, I had to streamline the original tale [ The Gunslinger Born], but I also had to incorporate scenes from earlier Dark Tower novels.

My job on The Gunslinger Born was to take Stephen King's novel and transform it into a detailed, seven issue, scene-by-scene story.

I've learned a heck of a lot this way [making Dark Tower comics]. I've also learned a lot from the editors at Marvel, who are always an equal part in the creative team.

Bringing Mid-World to a new readership felt like a big responsibility, but I'm so glad that readers have enjoyed the story. That is a reward in itself.

After all, I want to make sure I stick with his original vision. So far, [Steven King] comments have always been the same - run with it!

Very few of us relate to what it's like to be a hero. But everyone understands what it's like to fail.

My first job as commander in chief is to keep the American people safe.

I did drop out of school.

To know after absence the familiar street and road and village and house is to know again the satisfaction of home.

My life's like a big tour. It's cool, I'm still semi-young. I'm not too old yet where it's like, "I hate the road!" As long as I'm not anywhere for too long. I like to keep moving.

We're not going to be the first to this party, but we're going to be the best.
