About the series

In The O.Z., writer David Pepose and artist Ruben Rojas reimagine L. Frank Baum's Oz as a war-torn fantasy realm, following a young soldier from our world who is thrust into its magical conflict. Launched in 2020, this series from independent publishers offers a gritty, mature take on the classic setting, blending military action with dark fantasy. Its debut issue quickly established a distinct voice in modern comics, showcasing Pepose's knack for high-concept reinvention and Rojas's dynamic, cinematic art.
