I've been reading The Dark Tower novels. They are amazing. I can't wait to finish them all. I haven't read any of the comics. I figure maybe I'll do that when I'm finished with the actual novels.
Same with The Stand.

Stephen King's work is tremendously underrated. I feel like over time he's been labeled as a supermarket horror novel writer, in a way, but his novels are so much more than that.
Not only are the horrors incredibly complex and original, well written novels, but he's got so many other works that transcend the genre.
Something like The Dark Tower or The Stand is closer to being his own Lord of the Rings than anything.
