The Sombra Corporation is a New York company dealing in real estate, its sigil a cloud and thunderbolt, whose name first surfaces in The Waste Lands and recurs through the closing Dark Tower books.

Sombra first surfaces in The Waste Lands, the third book of The Dark Tower, as a corporate name in the New York of our own world. The Sombra Corporation is a company of that city, dealing above all in real estate, its insignia a cloud with a thunderbolt breaking out of it. The Dark Tower series moves between worlds: Roland Deschain pursues his quest for the Tower, the axis of all worlds, through the ruins of Mid-World, while portions of the closing books unfold in twentieth-century New York, where lots, deeds, and corporations hold places of their own in the story. Sombra belongs to that city side of the tale, a name that recurs across the closing volumes.
