Press Release Headlines

Dorothy and Toto Visit a Much Different Darker World of Oz

TORONTO, Oct. 31, 2005 — Jack Lake Productions Inc., in collaboration with Freefall Entertainment, is proud to announce the release of Book Two in the "Dorothy Gale, Journey to Oz" (five book series). Dorothy, Thomas and Edward are strangers in a wondrous land, both fascinating and dangerous. They are eager to find out where they are, how they got there and most importantly, how they will get back home. Though these answers may be uncovered and a path illuminated, the journey will be far from easy. The trio must evade the armies of the dreaded Wizard; the undisputed ruler of Oz. This proves to be impossible when an illusive voice calls to Dorothy for help, drawing her into the corn-row labyrinth of the horrific Scarecrows. Does the Wizard know that they are there?

From the mind and pen of wunderkin comic artist/writer from Toronto, Shane Kirshenblatt has brought to all Oz fans a truly fantastic (64 page) romp through a completely different and dark Oz. The intricate artwork is completely original and thought provoking and will provide a feast of eye-candy for the most discerning of comic book/ graphic novel afficionados. The story line is easy to follow and Shane has meticulously kept the reader involved with every turn of the page. This book two is a defining moment for Shane because it establishes him as a talented young powerhouse to entertain a new generation of comic/graphic novel fans for years to come.

As Shane is already working on Book Three (96 pages), Jack Lake Productions Inc., which is a co-publisher on this series, is also proud to announce that it will act as licensing agent for all artwork related to this five-part series: "Dorothy Gale, Journey to Oz".
