If you’re a fan of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande’s Wicked, then you’re likely a fan of The Wizard of Oz in general. Following the emotional Wicked finale, fans of this world of munchkins and flying monkeys now have something new to look forward to with a brand-new project on the horizon.

2024 marked the 85th anniversary of The Wizard of Oz, and on January 14, 2026, Dynamite will team with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products to bring a brand-new graphic novel adaptation of the legendary cinematic treasure to a new generation of fans.

This unique adaptation of the 1939 film will be written and illustrated by Soo Lee (Disney Villains: Maleficent, ThunderCats: Cheetara), following the classic story of the fantastical journey undertaken by a young girl named Dorothy and her dog, Toto.
