Ya I just found out about the Marvel thing and I'm going to look into it.This isn't really an expansion per say. It takes the numerous backstories of the wizard, which is from several books, and turns it into a singular movie.
If you enjoy Oz as a world though, I highly suggest reading Marvel's line of graphic novels. They're great.
Then you'll see what I was referring to. In the Marvelous land of Oz they mention the wizard being a murderer, then by Ozma of Oz that story is changed.Ya I just found out about the Marvel thing and I'm going to look into it.
If you wanna talk canon, the only things that are are the books. The musical is not, Wicked is not. Hell the Ruby slippers weren't even ruby. They were silver. They were made ruby because they wanted it to stand out on this new thing called colored movies.the world of Oz to me is always fucked up...
What is indeed cannon? only the books? musical? movies?
Is this the same wizzard thats in "the wizzard of oz"? the same as in "wicked"? so we are to see a story of growth and redemption in the person of the wizzard...then just turn to him being(back to?) a backstabbing manipulative sonofabitch?
I get that the world is a fun sandboxish place to play with stories etc- but its almost animeworthy of its convaluted stupidness
Well it is Fairy Country (literally). Glinda of Oz is supposed to be the only really fucked up one, so I'm gonna read that tomorrow. It was written as Baum was dying and published later.can't spell here or back on foh, and with my horrid spelling comes random auto corrects on my phone...
and aye I always know books are source , but to me even the books seem fucked
