''Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz'' was a newspaper comic strip written by L. Frank Baum and illustrated by Walt McDougall, a political cartoonist for the ''Philadelphia North American''. ''Queer Visitors'' appeared in the ''North American'', the ''Chicago Record-Herald'' and other newspapers from 28 August 1904 to 26 February 1905.〔Michael O'Neal Riley, ''Oz and Beyond: The Fantasy World of L. Frank Baum'', Lawrence, Kansas, University Press of Kansas, 1997; p. 108.〕 The series chronicles the misadventures of the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Woggle-Bug, Jack Pumpkinhead, and the Sawhorse, as the Gump flies them to various cities in the United States.〔L. Frank Baum, ''The Marvelous Land of Oz'', Introduction by Martin Gardner; New York, Dover Publications, 1969; Introduction, p. viii.〕 The comic strip in turn produced its own derivation, ''The Woggle-Bug Book'' (1905). ==Development== The project was designed to promote ''The Marvelous Land of Oz''.〔Michael Patrick Hearn, "''Queer Visitors'' Revisited," ''The Baum Bugle'', Vol. 38 No. 3 (Winter 1994), pp. 4-10.〕 Coincidentally, it ran at the same time as a comic strip featuring Oz characters that was written and drawn by W. W. Denslow. Denslow has drawn the illustrations for ''The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'' and shared in its copyright. After Baum and Denslow had a falling out, Denslow exercised his copyright through his strip, called ''Denslow's Scarecrow and Tin-Man'', which ran in relatively few newspapers from December 1904 to March 1905—an artistic and commercial failure.〔David L. Greene and Dick Martin, ''The Oz Scrapbook'', New York, Random House, 1977; pp. 15, 20-2.〕
