The material here is still immensely wordy, especially in it's blabbermouthed narrator. It also feels as if there is a lot more telling than showing, which is bad news in any visual medium but especially in a comic book. One of my gripes with both this one and the first volume is that they sort of ruin the mystery of the villains. By showing so much of the Crimson King and the Man in Black, it lessens the impact that their omnipotent presence had over Stephen King's novels. And to top it off, not a whole lot happens in this one. It's pretty forgettable. Hurry up guys, let's get to the good stuff!
