I'm quickly running out of superlatives for this comic. The retelling of the original Wonderful Wizard of Oz story is just a delight (which should be no surprise, since the original has ever been thus).
Eric Shanower adapts the story with great skill, and Skottie Young's artwork just seems to get better with each issue.
In this story the quartet - Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion - finally arrive in the wondrous Emerald City, where they finally meet the Wizard of Oz - and if you haven't read the original book, you might be surprised at his appearance.
I can't recommend this book highly enough. A real delight.
(I know, it's a short review, but what more needs to be said?)
Grade: A+
