I read the books a while ago, loved them. Though, I have to admit that I haven't read all 28 books that have been written in Oz.
28?! I didn't know there were all that many, I'm curious about them, as soon as I get some free time I might try it...

Is there a book where characters like DG, Az actually exist or are they all about Dorothy and the TM story was invented?
I second this question!

I think DG and Az were invented for Tin Man, as it's more of a continuation of the Wizard of Oz story-line.

As for the books, they're about tons of things. Like I said earlier, there are a lot of dark things that go around in Oz, and the books highlight only a few. I don't think Baum even wrote most of them,it's kinda like Sherlock homes.

When you're ready for it, wiki lists 17 books from Oz by him. You can find them here:

Sup Clint. So what was your favourite parts of the series?

I should really pop it in the dvd player. Ah, to find free time.

Dood, completely. I'm glad it ended where it did. Hopefully Racetrack isn't thrown in the brig too long.

I watched the whole thing on DVD yesterday and noticed one thing that was really weird. First in the DVD its in a movie format and not 3 episodes like it was when I watched it the first time. And it was cut. They skipped the part with Cain and his son. They showed the boy but didn't show the relationship. That was really WTH.

Are you certain? I was fairly certain that they had it in mine. Perhaps I should rewatch it just to be certain. Usually the DVD adds stuff in, not takes it away.
