Due to Christmas coming near, I would like to share a few fun facts of the DC Universe.

• Clark, despite being an adult, still believes in Santa Clause (Justice League ep 'Comfort and Joy).

• Bruce canonically trained under Santa (Batman - Santa Claus: Silent Knight).

• Santa, every year without fail, bypasses Apokolips' defences to deliver Darkseid coal. (DCU Holiday Bash Vol 1 #2).

• During a YJ98 comic, the team managed to hit Santa with a flaming meteor causing them to save Christmas by delivering all the presents (Young Justice Vol 1 #40).

• John Constantine located the skeleton of the holy Nikolaus and arranged to have the remains shipped back to England for use in an occult ritual (Hellblazer Vol 1 #247).

• The Easter Bunny hired an intergalactic bounty hunter to assassinate Santa (The Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special).

• Santa is a powerful wizard (New Year's Evil Vol 2 #1).

That is all and Merry Christmas to you all. Do what you wish with this information.

Hello folks, tis the season.

Are you a comic nerd looking for a gift for your 4 year old shit stain of a nephew?

Well, here’s a list of my favorite standalone where Santa presumably dies and is involved in national/federal crimes! Perfect for the little ones!

With a 2/10 on the trauma scale, we have “Young Justice (1998-) #40.”

The young justice team saw his slay get crushed to bits by a flaming red rock with a face. (Tho he presumably teleported(?) away? Idk man)

With a 9/10 we have “Hellblazer Vol 1 #247”

At one point, Constantine snorts Santa’s bone dust. (I suppose it doesn’t necessarily mean he had to have died for that) Extra points for Constantine having to get Santa's remains through customs!

Last but not least, we have “Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special (1991-) #1” with a 10/10 on the trauma scale.

In this one, the Easter bunny, who is drunk (or high, I don’t remember), puts a bounty on Santa's head. Santa is a tyrant as well as a dictator, and it all ends with Lobo violently killing Santa and a bunch of elves.

My personal favorite. I’m sure your nephew will love it just as much as my niece did last year!

Happy holidays.

"Usually means kill, ain't never used it when screwin'...well unless I snuff some poor broad out. Hey, accidents happen! But ta answer yer question, I kill't him, beheaded him, dude was a paramilitary slave-driver. North pole? Yeah, it was a massive sweat-shop compound."

He'd scratch his chin. "The Easter Bunny hired me ta do it. Ended up fraggin' him too."

@lobotcmy

"I still have no idea if frag means kill or if it means screw, and I think I'm the only one willing to ask. What did you do to Santa?"

Okay, so beyond what I feel is a certain kind of hypocrisy for fans who aren't really reading Energon Universe calling it "edgy", I have two major problems with it.

First, it is so easy to tell that Daniel Warren Johnson loves Transformers. It radiates from his pages. The way he writes Optimus Prime especially is beautiful, genuine, heart-wrenching, and has the true spirit of the character. This is Optimus Prime!

Second, while the action is exciting and intense... There is no glorification of it. These characters have been at war for 200 years and that is a ridiculously long time. It has worn on their spirits and their bodies. After each fight, both the Autobots and Decepticons are hurting and struggling.

I'm a fan of DC's Lobo, having read the official Paramilitary Christmas Special and watched the fanmade video adaptation. I'm a fan of Marvel's Sabretooth and read plenty featuring him. I've seen some edgy stuff.

Yes, it is upsetting to see characters you like die, but the presence of character death does not inherently mean that a story is edgy.

Sometimes I love comics. Even comics I didn’t expect to like.

Want some space dolphins swimming around rock plinths modelled on the Eagle Nebula? Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special #1 has your back.

For reference: two pictures of the Eagle Nebula ‘plinth’ clouds.

Into the GuyLoboVerse: Day 9

Earth 156: The Nice Guys AU

It's 1977 and private eye GUY GARDNER has discovered that sometimes investigating the death of a porn star puts you in the sights of an enforcer. Enforcer LOBO has discovered that sometimes accepting a couple hundred dollars to scare off some string bean looking detective ends up pulling you into a mystery bigger than anything you've ever dreamed of solving. LUMITA GARDNER has discovered that despite her mother being very right about her father, maybe, by some miracle, he might be a good detective after all...

Author's Notes:

Design wise, again, Guy and Lobo are pulling straight from the movie's wardrobe, with Guy being Holland March and Lobo being Jackson Healy.

For me The Nice Guys (2016) was one of those movies that came out at exactly the right time. It was a May 2016 release, almost exactly 2 months after I descended into GuyLobo madness. I was working at a movie theater. I didn't have to pay for admission. I saw this movie after work one day and I knew. I knew it was exactly the kind of movie that hit all of the dynamics that I'd been building up about Guy and Lobo. I watched it again. And then again. And then I got the novelization. And then finally the DVD. For several years it was part of my Christmas movies to watch (the final scene takes place around Christmas, though I believe most of the movie takes place in October) alongside Lobo's Paramilitary Christmas Special.

To me this movie will always be hand in hand with GuyLobo in my heart.

A side effect of this coming out about two months after I started being into GuyLobo is that I had not discovered Lumita Gardner yet since she has a whopping single appearance. I only knew about Jordana Gardner as far as Guy Gardner descendants went. So those initial watches had Jordana filling the role of Holly March.

One of the deviations I would include in the plot is that instead of being dead Mrs. March (Tora) simply took advantage of that no fault divorce law that's mentioned in the beginning of the film and got the heck out of dodge.

I definitely need to do a rewatch and reread. It's been too long.
