Perfect Timing for Oz Fans

A Dream Project for the Creator
“L. Frank Baum and his ‘wonder stories’ have been a huge influence on me,” said Frampton. “Adapting an Oz book into a graphic novel has been a dream of mine since I started making comics. The Patchwork Girl of Oz is one of Baum’s best stories. I hope readers of all ages enjoy seeing these amazing characters come to life.”
A Whimsical Quest
The story follows Ojo the Unlucky and his friend Scraps, the unpredictable Patchwork Girl. Together, they search for the magic ingredients to break a spell that trapped Ojo’s uncle. Along the way, they meet strange characters, face dangerous challenges, and uncover the mysteries of Oz.
The Patchwork Girl of Oz is a vibrant, heartfelt adventure. It’s a classic story retold with energy and imagination. In this version of Oz, anything can happen—and every patch has a story to tell.
