Tin Man: This Ain't Kansas


In December, SCI FI's re-imagining of the Wizard of Oz, Tin Man will hit the small screen, starring Zooey Deschanel as DG (that's Dorthy Gale), Neal McDonough as the titular Tin Man, Alan Cumming as Glitch (the Scarecrow), and Raoul Trujillo as Raw, the re-imagined version of the Cowardly Lion.

As a teaser, SCI FI's produced a comic book in partnership with Virgin's publishing arm, and they've graciously shared a preview of the product with us. The cover shot is featured on the right. The Tin Man (who's name is Cain) is on the far right--he doesn't look especially Tin, right? Well, in The OZ (that's the Outer Zone), "Tin Man" refers to a sheriff of sorts: Tin badges, get it?

In addition to the comic, there's also some video on the SCI FI site, like this Tin Man teaser.
