I heard that when she first heads to Oz, she accidentally lands in the world of The Wiz.

Hey... thanks again for all the kind words.
There are less than 60 copies of #2 at Diamond as of last Monday... so it may just sell out soon.

Awesome! I think the board members should be able to go ahead and get those last 60 issues.

finally got to read #2 today... If #1 changed my attitude from "meh" to "ok, interesting..." then #2 just may have bumped me up to, "wow, this is awesome."
There are still the occassional places where the art doesn't hit 100% for me, but I loved the monkey ripping apart the priest and can't wait to see more of that. They told Lizzie that her parents died in the tornado in issue 1, right? They looked pretty f'd up after they were exhumed, but I wasn't really sure why the girls were freaking out so much. Seems like a tornado could have hurt them the way that was shown. I like the way that Thomas was handled as well. It didn't (at least hasn't yet!) fallen into the annoying trope where the crazy old homeless guy who actually knows wtf is going on just acts and says stupid crazy things so that it's impossible for a normal person to believe him. Looking forward to seeing some of the relationship b/t Thomas and Frank get fleshed out a little more later... but I'm really just glad that both of them seem to be acting like normal people would. Thomas is not being some cryptic soothe-sayer or anything but really seems to be normal and sane. Thank you!
The shank in the leg during the prison break was pretty close to over the top... I kind of cringed, but we don't know why Thomas thinks that time is of the essence. I'm hoping that becomes clear soon in a way that makes it ok for him to do things that are a little bit crazy.
Anyway... Bravo! Looking forward to issue 3...
Oh yeah... After the little girl left the barn, did she die from those wounds? It didn't look like she was mortally wounded, so are the monkeys poisonous or something as well? Or maybe I just didn't look carefully enough...

ok, am i the only person that has read #3.
While i think the cover is cool, enough with the killer monkeys. I need me some wicked witch, glenda, tin man, munchkins...some different oz flavor..i think it's high time another tornado hits...or i guess those little green balls open up a portal to oz.
