The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Little Sisters of Eluria is a five-issue comic book limited series published by Marvel Comics.[1][2][3] It is the seventh comic book miniseries based on Stephen King's The Dark Tower series of novels. Unlike the majority of the other comics which were based either on the novels or original material that expanded upon plot points from them, this miniseries is not based upon any of the novels, but on the novella The Little Sisters of Eluria which was published in several anthologies before being included in the 2009 revised edition of The Gunslinger. It is plotted by Robin Furth, scripted by Peter David, and illustrated by Richard Isanove and Luke Ross. Stephen King is the Creative and executive director of the project. The first issue was published on December 8, 2010.
