LAND OF OZ #1 COMIC BOOK WICKED DARK FANTASY WIZARD DOROTHY SCARECROW TIN MAN!!!
LAND OF OZ #1 COMIC BOOK.
RARE and OUT OF PRINT. HARD TO FIND FIRST ISSUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM FEATURING THE DARKER SIDE OF OZ!
Dark Oz is a comic book updating of L. Frank Baum's Land of Oz series. In much th same way WICKED created a different way of looking at characters that we grew up with. This series predated Wicked by a number of years..
Oz is based on the characters and “history” from the series of fourteen childrens books written by L. Frank Baum. Writers Ralph Griffith and Stuart Kerr created an updated and unique world, no longer whimsical, but still lots of fun. While the triple threat of Scarecrow, Lion and Tin Man play prominent roles, Griffith and Kerr mined that magical country for the myriad of bizarre, yet endearing secondary characters which populate it. Beginning with a tribute to the original story, The Wizard of Oz.
Acting as a continuation to the Dark Ozseries, The Land Of Oz happens in a brand new timeline, although still set in the same universe as the previous Oz comics fromCaliber Comics and Arrow Comics. Thanks to Ozma's dipping into the reality-altering Book of Undo, she has reset things in Oz prior to the Nome King's original takeover from ten years previously. So, a few things that are different is that Dorothy never aged physically into an adult, and most of the regular Oz heroes never took on more humanoid forms like Lion.
A RARE EXCLUSIVE THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN MASS MARKET OUTLETS AND COULD ONLY BE FOUND IN COMIC BOOK SPECIALTY STORES!
