Ozma of OZ

Ello, everyone! Genie here.

Unfortunately, Page 17 is not ready yet. I'm currently dealing with a few things right now so the page will be delayed. Again, thank you for being so patient! Next week, you shall receive both a page and a special treat for Valentine's Day!

So, for this week's post, I doodled a little part of Oz that won't be in JGT's version, but it's actually one of my favorite parts of the Ozian universe.

Yep, I'm talking about Ozma, the Princess of Oz.


Ozma is the official ruler of Oz, as well as a dear friend of Dorothy and the original gang. She has a backstory that is definitely worth reading, so I will leave it to L. Frank Baum to cover that. If you would like to read about Ozma and how she came to be, her story starts in the second book in the Oz series, The Marvelous Land of Oz! It's a lot of fun with new and memorable characters. If you ever run into it, I say pick it up and meet this awesome character.

Though Ozma won't be appearing in JGT in OZ, that doesn't mean that I can't doodle her! If, and I mean if, she were to be a part of JGT in OZ, I probably would've given her role to Jocey. They're both fun-loving, assertive, and feisty when need be, so I think it'd be a good fit. Therefore, in this alternate version of JGT in OZ, all hail Jocey Squirrel as Princess Ozma :)

I hope you enjoy this doodle, and I hope you learn more about Ozma when you can! While you do, I gotta continue this story.

Until then,

Genie
