“And what would like for Christmas, little boy?”
“REVENGE!”
I loved that cover, loved that concept. Stories inside, not so much. Much as I loved the man personally, Gruenwald's offering about Santa's superhero son was a massive letdown. On the other hand, Steven Grant's Howard the Duck story ---while somewhat predictable---was sufficiently dark, and the Paul Smith art was aces. To this day, it remains one of the very very few non-Gerber HTD tales that I actually liked. Hope your Christamas was whatever you wanted.
