I kinda wish we'd get more Shanower-illustrated Oz someday, but...I wait to pick up the Oz books later on as well. While I don't mind supporting diversity, $4 cover from Marvel is too much IMO. I wouldn't mind seeing more Shanower Oz too (although that would probably be a long wait), but Skottie Young is more than adequate.

Those GNs from First are treasured gems in my collection.That said, I think "more than adequate" is a gross injustice to Skottie Young, as his almost Impressionistic style continues to wow me (yes, I'm aware a lot of people disagree)I wouldn't mind if Young handled the art for ALL the remaining Oz adaptations. (And I really don't want Shanower distracted from his AGE OF BRONZE. It's slow enough as it is already)BTW, have any of you two gents ever read Christopher Golden's BLOODSTAINED OZ? That novella managed to offend all the Oz purists, even those who didn't have a problem with Ryman's WAS, for instance. Needless to say, highly recommended.

LOSH ANNUAL #1 (Seriously, how late is this?)
Okay... My bad here gang... kinda. My retina decided to detach midway through the job and what with going blind in one eye and optic surgery and what-all... well, do the math. Just wanted to get it out there because I don't want anyone thinking anyone involved in the book's not pulling for all they're worth. I guess filing it under s**t happens might seem a bit cavalier but... s**t does indeed happen. I've been waiting for more than twenty years for the opportunity to return to the 30th century with Paul and I think it's to DC's credit that they were willing to wait a few weeks so I could get it done up right. Oh, and yes,the 30th century's still just as much fun as I thought it would be.

I'd love to see them go up through at least PATCHWORK GIRL OF OZ, if only because Young's version of Scraps would be awesome.
