Today's Oz Character Comic

I thought we'd seen the last of Jack Pumpkinhead and his family on Halloween. But today's Six Chix appears to prove me wrong.

In today's One Big Happy, it seems Ruthie may have a little bit of Ozzish in her background.

They're still coming! Today in Rhymes with orange, we see a different ending to The Wizard of Oz that could definitely cause some problems for one character.

Today's Post-Halloween Oz Comic

What? Jack Pumpkinhead is supposed to be done with appearing in the comics until next October. But there he is in today's installment of Cow Town. Oh, well.

Today's Bumper Crop of Ozzy Halloween Comics

Holy flaming cow, five comics to repart on today, with variable degrees of Ozziness:

• In today's Arctic Cirle, that could be Jack in the final panel, at a stretch.
• I think you'll easily recognize the Oz costume in today's edition of Jump Start.
• I'm pretty sure you'll figure out who that one kid is dressed as in this particular Blondie strip.
• This one's a stretch, but in black and white that new character in the third panel of today's installment of Luann looked more like Glinda than in this colorized verison.
• And finally, holiday greetings from The Wizard of Id (appropriately enough).
  I think things will start getting back to some semblance of normal tomorrow.

Today's Oz Comics

Yes, it was a doubleheader today!

• In today's edition of Luann, Betts, the cosplayer on the right in the middle panel, is dreaming of what she can do with the apartment's new dog. Hmm, they look familiar.
• While over in The Argyle Sweater, we now see why the Wicked Witch made Dorothy do all the chores.

Today's Double Dose of Oz Comics

Yes, two more Oz comics today—well, one deliberately Ozzy and one tangentially Ozzy. But surprisingly, neither is Halloween based.

• In today's edition of In the Bleachers, Dorothy seems to be making baseball a more complicated game than it needs to be. (This is actually a minor plot point in the novel Fantasy Baseball by Alan Gratz. Dorothy, captain and ace pitcher of the Oz Cyclones baseball team, can nto actually, physically reach home when her ruby cleats go missing.)
• And in this edition of Close to Home, Jack (Pumpkinhead, we presume, for the purposes of this blog) wins a nice prize—doesn't he? At least it seems this head can spell.

Today's Oz Halloween Costumes Post

With only five more days until Halloween, of course the comics have lots of costumed characters. Some should look very familiar.

• In today's Baby Blues, the MacPhersons are trying to figure out group costumes.
• In The Duplex today, I think one pair is going as the iconic duo from Wicked.
• A developing story in Breaking Cat News: She is definitely a good cat.

Finally, Jack Pumpkinhead also is wearing his best outfit in today's Rose Is Rose.

Today's Oz Comics

Good grief, more???

• I don't see what the issue is in today's Bound and Gagged, there's plenty to go around!
• Meanwile, in the latest Adam@Home, Clayton seems to be done with his current Halloween/Oz cosplay attempt.

Today's Oz-esque Comics

Good grief, three of them today!

• Today in Thatababy, a tribute to the greatest movie Sean Connery ever made. (No, not The Gnomemobile!)
• The dream trip continues in Luann.
• In today's Adam@Home, Clayton continues his Jack Pumpkinhead cosplay. It is not going well.

Today's Jack Pumpkinhead Comics

Hey, I may as well call them exactly what they are.

• In today's edition of Bizarro, it looks like Jack is getting some gig work. He even gets to work in a classic.
• Over in Adam@Home, Clayton appears to be cosplaying as Jack. I don't think it's going to work.

Today's Ozzish Comic

Luann and Bernice's dream continues in Luann.

Today's Oz-Adjacent Comics

Good grief, it's another two-fer!

• Over in Luann, Luann and Bernice's fever dream seems to be winding down. But not before slipping in another Oz reference.
• What? Another seasonal Oz reference in The Argyle Sweater? This is getting to be a habit. But it's also a good one.

Today's Not-Really-Ozzy Holiday Comic

This is the time of year when Jack Pumpkinhead gets really busy. He shows up today in Close to Home.

Today's Oz Comics

Yup, it's a two-fer today!

• Over in Luann, Luann and Bernice are having some sort of fever dream. They find out how to get out of it, but it may be harder that they think.
• Meanwhile, in The Argyle Sweater, the doctor has some problems to contend with, thanks to one Oz character.

Today's Unintentionally Ozzy Holiday Comic

It looks like Jack got a new job, as seen in today's edition of The Argyle Sweater.

Today's Oz Comic

Laura found this edition of the webcomic The Order of the Stick with a surprise Oz character guest appearance. Enjoy!

Today's Unintentionally Ozzy Comic

Jack Pumpkinhead makes another seasonal appearance in Eek!

Today's Oz-esque Comic

Yeah, I can't bring myself to call today's edition of The Argyle Sweater Oz-ish, as it's clearly not intended for Oz fans. But considering the look of that witch and Shirley Tmeple's connections with Oz, I thought everyone would appreciate it anyway.

Oz in Jeopardy!

The October 3, 2025 episode of Jeopardy! included the category We Love You, Judy all about women named Judy. Naturally, our favorite Dorothy actress popped up, which resulted in this extremely strange post-game exchange. (Incidentally, there was also a clue about Wicked in the same game. And you can watch this episode for yourself now for the next week on Hulu or Peacock, if you subscribe to either streaming service.)
