Unmerry Christmas, Dummies!

It's time for our annual Slay Monstrobot holiday tradition.

Take it away, Bizarro!

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all. Be safe, and read lots of comics.

We're dark tomorrow. See you Tuesday!

The Seal Men's War On Santa Claus!!

The War On Christmas has been going on longer than you think!

Yes, the Seal Men of the North Pole have kidnapped Santa Claus--on Christmas Eve!!

Fortunately, The Sandman is on the case (because he needs to help young Jed prove that Santa exists so a reclusive miser will donate a million bucks to charity because...look, it's Kirby, OK?

So why did the Seal Men kidnap Claus? Because the North Pole has the worst customer service EVER!!

Wait...so kids in the Sahara desert were supposed to get mittens, fishing poles, and scuba gear?!?!?! How is that any better?

Anyway...

This was the biggest reason that Santa Claus began to fulfill his Christmas shipping through Amazon...

OK, this one is really complicated. This story was intended for the never-published Sandman #7 (1977). Then it was going to be printed in the never-published Kamandi #61 (1978)...but then came the DC Implosion. It finally saw limited light of day in Cancelled Comics Cavalcade #2 (1978), and finally was widely published in Kamandi Challenge Special #1 (2017). Phew!!!

Unmerry Christmas, Dummies!

Some things never change...

Thank you, Bizarro. Thank you.

Everyone have a happy holiday. We're dark tomorrow. See you Monday!

A Confused Holiday Greeting?

You know, you foreigners have some straaaaange traditions... but what the hey:

HAPPY BOXING DAY!!!

I still don't get what this has to do with the holidays, but hey, goodwill (and devastating right hooks) to all, right?

From All-New Collectors' Edition #C-56 (1978). Yes, that was it's actual name. Because DC had a real crisis of imagination when it came to naming and numbering their series of Treasury Editions...

Our Holiday Tradition!

As we do every year on this day, the Slay Monstrobot crew wishes one and all a merry Christmas in the only appropriate way:

Well said, Bizarro.

We'll be back Saturday. Everyone be good!

Slay Monstrobot's Annual Christmas Message!

Have a great holiday, everyone.

We're off tomorrow, but we'll be back Thursday with more cow-town puppet show high tech comedy hijinks!!

A Christmas Tradtion, Yet Again

A Christmas Tradition

Someone's Been Tapping Into My Christmas Dreams

I guess now he'll really know who's naughty and nice:

Santa Claus vs. The Illuminati by Brian Reed and Val Semeiks is free until December 31st and Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited.

Jingle Bells

My friend Robert has been upset because he gave me a present about a month ago, and I haven't blogged about it yet.

Well, for obvious reasons, I wanted to wait until closer to Christmas:

You know, as Grant Morrison continues in his quest top make every Batman story "count," I sincerely hope he doesn't forget this:

Our story?

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Hitman?!? Yeah, that sounds like a good children's Christmas tale--"Hey, kids, all of your Xmas icons are really murderous gangsters!!"

And exactly how does one send a singing telegram to Batman? Does Western Union have the Batcave's address? (Well, everyone else in Gotham seems to, so...) Do you send it to Commissioner Gordon's office, and have the singer just wait around until Batman shows up?

Meanwhile, there's the Wonder Woman story:

A Nazi submarine kidnaps Santa?!?!?!? I've got to find someone with a turntable now...

Special bonus picture: Another Neal Adams-drawn Peter Pan album cover:

The Chipmunk Song, as performed by The Grasshoppers?!? Would that even be audible to the human ear?!?

Bold Fashion Choices--Xmas Edition!

You know, if Donna Troy would wear this outfit a little more often...



...no one would be as concerned with those pesky continuity problems. I'm just sayin'.

Donna Troy plays the Ghost of Christmas Hot in Teen Titans #13, 1968, titled (and no, I'm not kidding) "A Swingin' Christmas Carol." Oh, Bob Haney...

A Very Unspecial Christmas Message
