Here's another Oz drawing from my comic con sketchbook. This one is from the great Stan Sakai, the creator, writer, and artist of Usagi Yojimbo. This is the epic tale of a ronin samurai in a version of feudal Japan that just happens to be inhabited by anthropomorphic animals. Usagi is a rabbit who wanders the countryside and has many adventures. This was the first sketch I got when I attended my first (and so far only) Comic Con International in San Diego in 2001. And here it is!
If you want to see more of Stan's Oz-related work, he did a version of Oz in the annual Halloween issue of The Simpsons comic a few years ago, called "I'm Not in Springfield Anymore". Lisa gets conked on the head, and has a dream where... Oh, you get the idea. It's in the collection The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Fun-Filled Frightfest.
