The Marvelous Land Of Oz #1 REVIEWED!

G-Man takes a trip back to the land of Oz in the sequel to The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz!

I think I may have made it clear that I simply adored The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz along with Skottie Young's amazing art.  Now it is time to return to the land of Oz and take part in the adventures of Tip and Jack Pumpkinhead.  Will this series be as good as the first?  This is on sale Wednesday, November 4, 2009.
 

   
What more can I say about this book.  If you've read the first 8 issue mini-series, you're going to love this series as well.  If (for some crazy reason) you were on the fence, or if you're simply not a huge Wizard Of Oz fan, this takes place after that.  So if you haven't read the original novels, this will be a new adventure for you.   
 
I could sit here and go on praising Eric Shanower and Skottie Young but I think you get the idea.  While I enjoy the superhero comics or the dark & twisted tales, this is just an enjoyable comic.  There's a reason that I begged Marvel to let me take an early look at this book over everything else they're putting out this week.  Pick this book up and give it a shot.  I really think you'll be hooked.
