Oz: Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz
by
by
The Wizard and Dorothy are together again!
Creative Team:
Writer: Eric Shanower (based on the original works by L. Frank Baum)
Illustrator: Scottie Young
MANGABOO(GIE) TIMES
As the title clearly states, the two most famous characters from the first book are together again. Dorothy and the Wizard reunites!
And you can bet that new companions rise. Zeb, that he's Dorothy's cousin. Jim, a work horse. And Eureka, a mischief cat. As happened with Billina in the previous book, the horse and the cat can talk once they are in the realms of the fairy lands. (One must wonder what the heck is going with Toto? Is he mute? Has he nothing good to say? Dang it!)
The bunch are lost yet again in fairy terra incognita, far from the familiar territory of Oz.
Good thing that Dorothy and her friends soon enough have the support of the Wizard!
They will have to face in the strange land of the Mangaboos and the odd valley of Voe, but you can bet that a visit to Emerald City in Oz is not so farfetched to hope.
The journey is entertained, full of humor, with plenty of perils and indeed one heck of adventure!
The wonderful Oz-esome team of Eric Shanower and Scottie Young is together again to adapt the fourth book of L. Frank Baum.
Highly recommended to readers of all ages.

I really liked some of the later ones even more than the first.
Wonderful review, Alejandro! :)
The thing about Toto not talking is explained later in the books, although not covered by the graphic novels. Basically, he could always talk in Oz, but just chose not to.
