...the same entity???

https://mobile.twitter.com/StephenKing/status/1509629947194880003?cxt=HHwWhsC9jYmcpPMpAAAA

but for real, isn't Pennywise some cosmic being, while Randall Flagg is a dark wizard who used to be human?

Run... or hide in plain sight?

didn't one of the Dark Tower books have him briefly thinking about his past, where he was still a kid/young teen, and it seemed like he was a human then?

Yes. Also, Flagg gets eaten by a baby spider thing. Somehow I don't think that would happen to Pennywise.

the dark tower version of flagg is nonsense and he was very clearly kind of retrofitted into the story, but from what i remember of the overall plot of him hes just playing the part of a wizard and working for the crimson king, who is like dark tower satan

yea, it's been a long while, but that sounds about right.

I haven't read the other works that he appears in, though, so I don't know too much about how he was depicted in them, but I remember some people not liking how he was portrayed in The Dark Tower.

Dark Tower Spoilers ahead
I liked the implication in the earlier books that Flagg was Marten. That fit with his role of being the dude who helped facilitate the ending of worlds. Then they did the whole "Flagg, Marten, and Walter were all the same dude" in the later books.

I always loved this picture. It's the best version of how I picture Flagg to look. At least in The Stand.
