This is the penultimate volume of this story. There is one left. In the book there is a lot about what is going on in Las Vegas and it is left out of this story. The focus is totally on Bolder in this story. It seems just when they have built their new city, it starts to fall apart. The new committee is losing member left and right. Harold has shown his hand and chosen his side. Nadine has chosen to be the wife to a demon.This sets up the end and I'm excited to read it. I feel the art in this vo...

I'm not so big on the religious content, but the story is still a wild ride that keeps you guessing.

In No Man's Land, Harold's turn to the dark man has come full circle as his plan comes to fruition. With Nadine by his side, Harold enlists the power of explosives to attempt to bring about the demise of the Free Zone Committee. Meanwhile, the search for Mother Abigail continues as her mysterious disappearance causes several of the townsfolk to worry about her ability to survive the elements.This is a pretty important volume. So much happens within these 136 pages and surprisingly, it moves alon...

King knows how to make a character so repulsive he's almost fascinating. Almost. Again, not for me, but pushing through to the end.

This was the first Stephen King book I read (i even like the cheesy mini series) and I have re read it many times. I prefer Mr King writing non horror book. Another recommendation is The Long Walk under the name as Bachman.

I first read The Stand when book makers were unable to print a paperback of this immensity. As a result it was heavily abridged. This was probably a good thing as, while the first half was good, the second a little tedious. I would, however, freely recommend this to watch King approaching the zenith of his skills and originality..

4.5 stars. These volumes are just so consistently good.

We finally get to the big watershed moment, and once again this adaptation doesn't disappoint. I've also decided that my favorite character design has GOT to be Nadine. I still wish we'd seen a bit more of her outside of her heel turn (and again, I don't remember if she really is in the book that much as I remember or if I'm remembering the miniseries more), but hey, whenever she's on the page I'm happy to see her. Onto the last!

This is the penultimate volume of the graphic novel series based on Stephen King's The Stand. It has to pack a lot of information into this volume, but I think it has done it really well. There were some statements made from some characters that I don't remember being so obviously stated in the book, but I feel like they were done here to move the story along. I felt like it worked, even though various themes were a bit subtler in the book. No time is spent with Flagg, even though his influence

The graphic novel retelling of Stephen King's The Stand continues. I am going with 4 stars on this one instead of the full 5, and I think it comes more from my long standing feelings about this section of the book than the actual graphic novel volume. When I first read The Stand over 20 years ago, I got bogged down in this section of the book. For those who haven't read it yet, I will continue in a spoiler tag (view spoiler)[This is the section where they are getting settled into Boulder and the...

Fantastic! This is the penultimate volume and everything sets the stage for the finale. A couple of wonderful major characters die. The committee sends three people off to Las Vegas to spy then come back and report. One of these is Tom Cullen, M-O-O-N spells spy. Mother Abigail returns and sends 4 of the men off to confront and challenge the dark man. The volume ends with them on the road. Cannot wait to read the last book which is here in my greedy hands.

6th book read in 2013. Number 93 out of 298 on my all time book list.Follow the link below to see my video review:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olWG_-...

While there wasn’t much action in the traditional sense, the penultimate book in this series really gets real and does a great job setting up the final showdown. Up until now I’ve felt this series was merely average , and as a whole I stand by it. But I really enjoyed the story arc in No Man’s Land. Good job.

This is one of King's best novels, IMO. The end of the world as we know it, the back to basics for the survivors and the good vs. evil choices they all must make are nothing new for plot lines. But King weaves his magic, as usual, making this a scary horror story, a love story, a story of friendships as well as one of hope for mankind, all wrapped into one....as only King can do.I also enjoyed The Stand movie. It followed the book pretty well. Not something you see too often.

So much happened in this volume! We've slowly formed this community and begun to really feel for these people and now the shit has really hit the fan. I can't say much without spoiling, but near the end there were a few images that just broke my heart. Maybe more so than when I originally read those "scenes" in the novel.There is certainly something to be said for the visual medium.

Reprints The Stand: No Man’s Land #1-5 (April 2011-August 2011). As the Free Zone works to establish itself in Boulder, the need for government arrises. Nadine Cross falls further under the control of the Man in Black and brings Harold Lauder deeper into his plans. With the realization that Randall Flagg’s plans are continuing to develop in Las Vegas, the Free Zone realizes they must act. A tragic turn of events reminds the members of the Free Zone that it isn't just a battle for survival, but a...

It's getting very religiously-toned, and since that has no resonance for me, it's getting to be a bit of a a slog. Plus all the characters are pretty similar. Really it's even more than that, the characterization of all the "hardcases" and misfits as ACTUALLY OF SATAN or thereabouts is kind of awful. It keeps saying how Flagg represents the "old way," but he's associated with technology and rebellion, and it's the "good guys" who want to go back to the old ways of religion and nature and all tha...

Still good for fans who want a refresher on the original. That final showdown is coming soon. Good guys and bad are dropping like flies.I don't know. I think I do prefer the way the full story is treated more in the book. It's the details that prove the most horrific, after all.

This the fifth in a series of six volumes. I love The fact that they were able to take a section of the novel and convey it so beautifully. While I have never been a Harold or Nadine fan, this volume helps to show their flaws and humanity. It shows how one little thing can make a person choose evil over good. The characters and settings were so beautifully drawn that you understand the emotions of the novel. A little sad that I only have one more volume to go before I am done with this adaptatio...

I bought this book at the end of June and put it in my vehicle, but with summer semester as hectic as it was, I'm just now getting around to it. I had a break between my culinary classes yesterday & instead of reading something else on my friend's Comixology.com account, I started on this.Nothing has changed writing or art wise since volume 4. This is based off of one of my favorite Stephen King books so the story is great. Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is continuing to translate the original story to
