There is also, I think a BIG lost opportunity for shoe loss in the later Oz books.
In The Wonder City of Oz, which John R. Niell (normally the illustrator) wrote himself. There is an Ozelection for rule over the Emerald City. In the original round of this people cast their votes by leaving their right shoes at the polling places of their respective choices. That means that, for a period, pretty much EVERYONE in the Emerald City would be in one shoe. Even more so when the Heelers (who eat votes, and so scarf up all of the results, along with most of the right shoes of those who HADN'T voted yet, thereby making that round invalid).
I'd do some myself, if I was actually a competent artist. Until then I just have to add such losses as I can satisfactorily explain into my own Oz work. |
heh I don't know why but i almost wish that the City of Attis in the dervland story by mandrake had a smilar rule for voting, seeing how the whole story is a wizard of oz parody

Oh nice! I love Scratchcat's art! I haven't seen new stuff from him in awhile so this is a treat.

scratch hasn't really been on DA for a while as he's been mostly posting to his discord group since the start of the year, and even then it's pretty rare because of certain events.

I agree with you mandrake, if anything k-pop girls losing shoes is so cute and funny at the same time.

Yeah i have seen a few of these on TV shows and Us cartoons. though in many animes i have seen a good number of scenes where a character is walking around one shod or barefoot for the whole episode because she lost her shoe(s) early on. And if anyhing i makes me wonder why American shows don't feature stuff like shoe loss that often anymore, or even shoe loss that we can see. as sometimes after a character lose's one or both of her shoes they just keep her feet hidden for the whole episode.
