Friend of Dorothy stars Scott-John, a young teenage boy struggling with his sexuality who, after attempting to end his life, finds himself brought back from the brink to be given the mantel of Oz's first Official Campion on Earth —the one being in all the universe imbued with the strength, stamina, and righteous weapons of Oz itself!

This sparkling romp of a comic, written by the seriously nice Brian Anderson (So Super Duper) and illustrated by Celina Hernandez, is as fun as it is unambiguous. The male half of the team, Reignbow, is flamboyantly out and proud, and he’s not above busting some Madonna dance moves while beating down bad guys, like homophobic vampires. “Brown sugar mama” Dee-Va is his best gal pal, and let’s just say you don’t want to cross a woman who can injure you with some bangles.
