Q: The layout for the Dark Tower graphic novels is more basic than some of the contemporary graphic novels.

A: From the beginning, Jae only did horizontal panels. The idea was that it was readable by anybody that picked up the book. Newcomers to comics have a hard time reading them because the panels go in every direction. You have to learn how to read them. You have panels inside of panels going into something, and if your eye is not trained to do it, you don’t know how to do it. We knew we were talking to people who maybe hadn’t read comics before, so we had to make it very easily readable and have the most simple layouts possible, one plane after the other. When Michael Lark did that wide-screen thing, he fell into that same tradition of one shot after the other. It’s almost like a storyboard. Just go down the page. That was really in the right spirit for the book. That’s one of the key reasons why the book works. I can give it to my mom and she’s able to read it.
