Next, in November, a new take on a timeless classic will surprise and enchant you in the action/fantasy Dorothy of Oz Vol.1: "When Mara Shin's dog Toto gets lost one fateful day, she follows his trail along some yellow brick road and ends up in the wonderful land of Oz! Everyone instantly starts calling her Dorothy, but these aren't the cowardly lion, brainless scarecrow and heartless tin man adventures you remember. This fantastic fairy tale features familiar character ... but with a definite action/animated twist!"

Then in December, Magical JxR Vol.1 tells the story of two teenage wizards and the young girl they befriend: "Jay and Aru are two of the most popular students in wizardry school. However, before they can graduate, they must venture out into the REAL world and fulfill a one year magic contract with a human girl named Cho-Ah. Is Cho-Ah ready for a whole year with two enthusiastic wizards-to-be at her beck and call?"

With more titles planned for 2008, these three new ongoing series are just the beginning of UDON's Korean Manhwa line.
