Not just that, but we also have an excerpt from the foreword to share. It’s no secret that Harris is a fan of The Wizard of Oz, especially after 2012, when he and his whole family went all-out with costumes from the 1930s movie. However, his love for the universe goes way back before he had children of his own.

Neil Patrick Harris Shares His Love for ‘Wizard of Oz’
This isn't a reimagining, but a canon-faithful story based on the novels by Baum. This is a chance to go into stories in a beautifully illustrated way, opening the world of Oz even more than imagined before.
“Because I was small and could sing, the organizers plucked me out of the crowd and cast me as Toto. Ahhh, the classic Hollywood story (or, in this case, New Mexico, but you get the idea)…And from that moment forward, two parallel paths — one the spirited journey of an acting career and the other a wondrous trip down the Yellow Brick Road — have been winding in front of me ever since.”

There’s no doubt that the magical world of Oz has captured the hearts of many, whether it’s through the 1939 movie, the Wicked universe, or even various versions of the story through TV shows like Once Upon a Time and Emerald City.
“The fact that Oz has endured with so many people across so many generations is a testament to the expansive world that Baum imagined. The book you hold in your hands — and indeed the whole Ultimate OZ Universe — honors that tradition, breathing new life into spectacular lands, as iconic characters work together to accomplish what none of them could do alone. Put simply, Into the Outerlands celebrates what makes OZ magical, capturing the wonder, courage, and strangeness that made us fall in love in the first place.”
