Wow, it's been a while but i think The Green man is described as being "good" and has a green aura.
Since he helped Ralph fight the Crimson King, he can be considered to be on the purpose.
I think it was just supposed to be some vaguely defined, powerful being from a higher level of the Tower

The Green man is described as being "good" and has a green aura. Since he helped Ralph fight the Crimson King, he can be considered to be on the purpose.
Not much is known of the Green Man since he doesn't appear in any other Stephen King novels, but he could be the energy of Maturin because of his green aura. He can also be a manifestation of Gan.
If you have not read the Dark Tower books, I can not say too much about Patrick. BUt he will play a very important roll in the story due to his artistic abilities. |

wolf What Do you Mean Tie into Rose Madder? I J/W because I Going to Read That Book Next!
I actually got to read that book before I read "Insomnia".
I think I am recalling correctly. Dang I haven't read those since the late 90's.
I have got a PRETTY GOOD memory, but I've read so many books, and it has been a long time.....that's why I put a, "Right?" at the end of my post quoting Lady spideyman .🙂
....I remember Ms. Mod saying, back on the SKMB, that she doesn't do much rereading of books, because she has so many "first reads" to get to....that's not verbatim, quoting her there, but it's the gist of the situation. I am like her in that way. 🙂 |

Dizzy The Green man is a "Deus Ex Machina" that appears in the novel Insomnia. Not much is known about the Green man. He appears to Lois and tells her to give Ralph her earrings that she previously had stolen by Atropos. In doing so, Ralph was able to surprise the Crimson King by stabbing him with Lois's earrings which broke the Catfish illusion the Crimson King had on. This gave Ralph the chance to set off his booby-trapped arm to drive away the Crimson King.

Thanks for those posts, Lady and Commander osnafrank .
Nice!...tie in to "Rose Madder" too...and then from there onto "Lisey's Story". Right? Thank you, Lady. 🙂 Seems like I remember at the end of "Insomnia", the trek up to that 'half-way house'...it was where Rose had been staying in "Rose Madder"....but like I said, it's been a long time, I might not be remembering correctly. And I thought MUCH of "Rose Madder" was related to things in "Lisey's Story" and particularly 'Booya Moon'. Like always, appreciate your help. I DO really enjoy threads like this Dizzy , with all the questions and answers everyone bring.🙂 I am no where near as adept as JB/ darkharbinger , at remembering and keeping up with all the repeated 'SK locations' in the all of his varied stories and books. 🙂 |

The green man is never really explained (in my head cannon he was James Gardner from the Tommyknockers lol) and Patrick Danville shows up in the last part of the Dark Tower.

I'm searching my memory more now.🙂
I really liked "Desperation" too.
...hmmm...seems like I remember 'miners' being involved in the history/backstory in that one...and that "Tommy Knocker Man" thing being mentioned.... I always felt like "Tak" came up out of one of 'Those SOUR Places'...that someone just had to dig up. 😊😉 In "Desperation" I had other parts of the story that held my attention more. I particularly liked 'the writer' and the boy in it. 🙂 What do think JB?.... darkharbinger , do you think you might sometime consider starting a thread about about "crossovers and links in SK stories and places/settings"? Maybe? I can't think of anyone better to do it but you. 😊 People could come ask questions, and you could answer whenever you have time. .....Just a THOUGHT.....lol, I have A LOT of THOSE wild things, they're not always good ideas. 😂😉 |

Yea wolf I got those Vibes too an I always Been a Fan of those Type of Movies or Book where Folks Dig Up some Evil Force/Entity from a Cave Under Ground an such I like Stories Like that an Desperation One of My Favs By Stephen King. When I first Read ithought we were dealin with a Crazy Cop Story but that wasn't it. Tak just Took Over the Big Cops Body an Mind as well Several other People too because It Destroys them Pretty Quick.

I'd be happy to Wolf. One of the things that drew me to King was his shared Universe. it's why I like Marvel more than DC, its awesome where another story peaks in at the story you are reading. One of my fave often over looked ones is when Rachel Creed drives past Jerusalem's Lot.
