Actually, the conspiracy theorists believe that the Good Witch Glenda brought Dorothy into Oz just to get rid of the evil witches, without it ever being traced back to herself. With just the right amount of prodding, she was able to get the deed done by putting together the 4 travelers in secret, and guiding their way the whole time. The Wizard was of course in on it too.

The Movie simplified the story a bit by combining the two characters and eliminating the journey to Glinda’s castle, which then made the character look like she was holding back on Dorothy, thus leading to today’s strip…

As the saying goes, it’s the journey, not the destination.

Personally, I think that movie was racist. That actor should not have used silver-face to portray a tin man.

And they never said what was going to happen to her dog Toto at the end.
