15 parts Complete
Prepare to embark on an exhilarating and daring escapade through the mystical realm of Oz, in this thrilling sequel to my previous adaptation of the enchanting book by L. Frank Baum, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. In Return to the Land of Oz, the fearless Dorothy Gale sets foot once more in the captivating Land of Oz, only to discover a realm in disarray, far from the way she remembered it. No longer is the King Scarecrow seated upon the throne, for it has been usurped by the malevolent Queen Roquat and the cunning Princess Mombi. These devious rulers not only hold the land captive but also conceal the true heiress to the throne of Oz, the rightful Princess Ozma. Stand alongside Dorothy as she forges alliances with both familiar faces and newfound companions, embarking on a quest to liberate Ozma and the entire land of Oz from the clutches of these tyrannical monarchs. Brace yourself for an odyssey filled with peril and valor, where courage and friendship shall be tested in the face of overwhelming adversity. *** Loosely based on the second and third books in the Oz series by L. Frank Baum, "The Marvelous Land of Oz" (1904) and "Ozma of Oz" (1907), I have once again used some characters from the 1985 film "Return to Oz" in my illustrations. This choice made once again because of the appearance of the main characters in that film more resembling the ones used in the original Oz book illustrations crafted by W.W. Denslow and John R. Neill, than other Oz films. In this adaption, I have also merged the characters of Mombi from "The Marvelous Land of Oz" with Princess Langwidere from "Ozma of Oz," echoing the creative fusion of that character seen in the 1985 film. However, the character of the Nome King has been reimagined as Queen Roquat, a female ruler whose name pays homage to the real name of the Nome King in his early book appearances. Many other changes to characters and events from the books can be seen throughout my adaption as well.
