Dorothy Gale, the main protagonist in “The Wizard of Oz” stories, is a preteen girl in the original books. But Hollywood often depicts her as a young woman.
This could be because Hollywood doesn’t want to show a young girl in peril. Or, more likely, it wants to sex up the story with a nubile woman.
Pop-culture artists go even further, making Dorothy a smoking-hot sexpot or buxom adventurer.
What follows are some examples.
Most of these illustrations were done for a series of Oz stories by Zenescope Entertainment, a comic book publisher known for putting a sexy spin on public domain stories.
