Previous thread: >>77933806
Getting to the final 24 hours or so:
For those of you who weren't here the last couple of years, I did various Christmas contests and would gift someone who I arbitrarily chose as the winner. I intend to keep that tradition alive this year.
I decided to get started with a (relatively) big challenge: Write a Christmas story featuring /co/ characters. Maybe Lex Luthor decides he hates Santa because he challenges human superiority. Maybe the Flash has to sub in for Santa one night and deliver presents around the world (has that been done? That must have been done before). It doesn't have to be long, just something short and simple, but the more Christmas special-y the better. If you're a drawfag and want to draw it out instead, that's fine too.
Send your submissions to [email protected]. Or you can post them in the thread, but just make sure I see them. I'll give everyone until Sunday afternoon (Eastern time) to put something together. At the end I'll share them with the thread and crown a winner. Make sure to include your wishlist with your submission.

Alright, new Christmas thread! Here's my code if you wanna Christmas gift me something or whatever: 297MIGOM4JLT0
So, /co/, what are some unique Christmas traditions you guys celebrate? I love hearing about how other people celebrate Christmas.
>>77949770
Nothing too unique. My family is pretty religious so Christmas Eve service is always on the books. My parents always let us open one present on Christmas Eve after coming back from church too.
Woke up from the coma in time for a new thread! I'll just drop this here: VJ9BT1OBNF7
>>77942167
I didn't add the text, but I did change up Santa and Capt's eyebrow situation before I clocked out, so here's that edit.Do you want the text added? because I can totally do it
As always, if you guys wanna request a scrib, go for it!

Merry Xmas Boobies, it's that time again time for another Riddler Xmas Prize Puzzle Penis Pentration Extravaganza (ignore those capital letters kids, seriously those were a joke). Speaking of time what do you think of my new portrait it's got quite a festive name. Fitting don't you think?

Also looking to send more gifts. Receiving a thank you note really made my day less shitty.
>>77949355
I love Stargirl too! Need more of her in my life... Does she show up in much beyond JSA?
Also; new thread, wishlist post, I guess? That's how it works right?
2SJHUEMM2SO27 (.co.uk)
>>77949989
She debuts in Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. which was written by Johns. Not a long run, and has some atrocious art, but it's a fun little story.
Was about to make a thread when this one popped up.

Hello everyone, hope you're having a great Saturday.
I'm dropping my list for this year. It's
3U43F7DZ95EB6
Hope you have a merry Christmas
>>77950061
Thrown it on the wishlist, looks kinda cute and fun
>>77949961
Vol 1 is ridiculous prices unfortunately for me.
Posting again from last thread

Yeah, i'm suprised you remember.
>Because I'm really sorry they were so shitty to you
Don't worry about it, i expect it from there at this point. The last time i went in i was looking at the floppies and the girl at the till by the door stared at me the entire time i was in the shop.Is it really that strange to see a black guy interested in comics?
Man, I'm happy I finally woke up for the first day in a week and feel vaguely alive.
Celebrated by nabbing myself a few comics on sale.
I remember reading the Street Fighter comics years ago and enjoying them.
>>77950159Enjoy it. I had to select a used copy, but it said the condition was really good, so hope it doesn't arrive looking like crap. Merry Christmas, anon.
>>77949954
I feel so computer illiterate trying to do this.
>>77950331
Good, hope you enjoy your gift!

can be safely removed from the ungifted list.
>>77950356
Oh, thank you so much (San)tajador! Merry Christmas to you too
>>77949989
You also want recent Jeff Parker JLU, which had the most unlikely Stargirl teamup in it that I never knew I wanted BUT I DID
>>77949770
My family would always watch Santa Claus Is Coming to Town on christmas eve morning, and The Year without a santa claus at night before bed. It started when we were really young, and it was easy to convince us to go to sleep after watching year without a santa claus.
Love those miser brothers
>>77950356
It's the thought that counts
>>77950476
Oh my god I know. That whole story arc just made the fact that it got cancelled hurt so much more worse.
I just want another DCUP/Brave and the Bold series that actually lasts, but nothing fucking sells for DC without Batman front and center anymore.
Just found out about these through German Amazon, these minikits come with small paperback comicsor in some cases just stickersso they still fall under the book category and qualify for their free shipping.
Checked Amazon.com and the majority of these don't cost more than $9. Thought they were neat and maybe worth sharing with you guys, they make for sweet little stocking stuffers and wishlist additions.
>>77950476
Who was the teamup?
>>77950631
Stargirl andEnemy Ace
>>77950636
A quick Wikipedia search for Enemy Ace makes that sound awesome. I need to read me some more Stargirl stuff.
>>77950439
Thank you anon!
>>77950661
That whole arc was pretty fucking rad and featured about a dozen other minor DC characters thrown in. It sounds like it should be a clusterfuck but I love stories like that because it gives these characters a chance to play off of each other in interesting ways.
>>77950701
I'm hoping they collect that run in a trade, and don't just forget it exists. I can't find all the back issues.
>>77950636
hnnnng
>>77950701
It'll make a great single trade, Parker JLU, and I still hope for some kind of relaunch
>>77950740
A relaunch would be perfect.
Running it off from Lemire's JLU was a bad move
Don't want to start a new thread just for this but how are the mega man comics? Thinking of using them as a gift for my brother
Today has been weird, I woke up early and have already had three naps and am still tired. I feel this is going to ruin my sleep cycle
2CPU26IWTP7FE co.uk
>>77950773
I love Archies adventure series. I'm a sonicfag, so I picked it up out of habit. It was pretty good, the first crossover with sonic is solid, the second not so much. But the main series is great if your a mega man fan.
>>77950773
Pretty solid fun. If he's a fan of the games, he'll probably enjoy the comics.
There's also a big crossover (technically there are two crossovers, but I haven't heard many good things about the second) with the Sonic comics if he's a Sonic fan too.
>>77950870
>>77950884
Cool thanks dudes
>>77950661
Enemy Ace IS awesome. His internal conflict of being an undefeated killing machine but finding no enjoyment in fulfilling his patriotic duty in the war is great, and the old school melodrama narration amps it up marvelously. The showcase presents volume collecting his appearances is great, even if you don't like war stories.

Noted.
God, when I think about all the comics (and books and games and TV shows and movies...) that are out there and want to read, it gets depressing thinking about all the things I'll never finish or get around to.
Heeeey, how's it going guys? Who has received something in the mail already? I'm just curious.
Do you have any /co/ related ornaments on your tree?
The closest I have is one from Disney World.
>>77950342
>i'm suprised you remember.
You seemed pretty pissed off with the whole thing, and I felt bad for putting you in that situation.
>mfw that spoiler
... Shit. I am so sorry you had to deal with that shit. The worst I ever had to put up with that place was having one of the store owners telling me not to read comics in the storeand to be fair I was just straight up reading trades cover to cover and putting them back on the shelf.Was it the girl with the bright blue hair? Because she was nice as pie to me when I went in there today. Then again, I'm a schlubby white guy.Have you heard of Geek Syndicate? Those guys are pretty fun to listen to.

I just went to my mailbox and THANK YOU BASED ANON! I've been jonesing after reading this in print and put off doing any scans to wait.
I do follow Steranko on Twitter because his stories are amazing.
>>77950931
Is it normal that when I try to enter a password, it shows nothing as being typed?
>>77950589
Got a Mr. Hankey one at Barnes and Noble for $2.00 after Christmas
>>77951321
Hit enter and it will tell you wrong password, so probably yes.
>>77951467
Damn that's a pretty good deal.
>>77951235
Oh hey you got it! Hope you like it, it's still sitting on my wishlist but I'll get it on my bookshelf one of these days YOU HEAR ME
>>77950589
That Bat Signal looks pretty neat. At the very least I could mess with my cats with it.
>>77950589
>>77951467
Kind of surprised at just how many properties they have made mini kits out of from South Park's Mr.Hankey to Gremlins and Godzilla.
>>77951744
Found a review of it, doubt it would annoy your cats much.

>tfw can't find a link to Thompson's Dream Quest of the Unknown Kadath anywhere
>>77951235
Aww snap I need to add that book to my shelf.
I missed the first 8 or so Secret Santa threads does anyone know if anyone has storytimed the Transmetropolitan Xmas shorts? Or care if I restorytime them?
>>77952179
Look using DesuStorage. Found it right away
>>77952207
I don't think anyone's done that one yet but I may be misremembering.
We've still got a ways until Christmas, we're going to have to start repeating storytimes eventually anyways.
>>77952212
That's the Culbard version, not the Thompson version
>>77952274
My apologies, I misunderstood
>>77952247
Fair Enough.
Here we go /co/ both Transmetropolitan Christmas Specials (as both are really short)
>>77952330
It's Saturday and I finally have it off. Hope everyone is having a good one so far. Gonna head out to see that new Krampus movie since I slept through Wondercon, so no new art until late tonight, if any. Hope I stay awake during it. So since I new art, here's something old. If post my code but I don't have it on my phone.
>>77949944
Yes please. I'd like to see both.
>>77950840
Mine's been fucked for 2 months now. I can't sleep more than 5 hours comfortably.
Better late than never heres my wishlist

Already got somebody something (poxa gronka), will try to get 1 or 2 more things for others in the next week or so time and money permitted.
>>77952381
Dangit, right in the middle of a storytime. Always. Sorry >>77952330.
>>77952467
Nah don't worry about it it happens.
Onto the second one!
>>77952381
> Gonna head out to see that new Krampus movie
Neat, I'm seeing it next week. Tell me if it's good.
>>77952510
kinda surprised a Krampus comic relating to the movie didn't come out.
>>77952561
Grant Morrison has that Santa Claus origin story comic out right now, it's actually pretty good, art is phenomenal.
That's all for now /co/ which one did you prefer? I like the second one a little better myself, mostly because of the interaction with the Filthy Assistants.
Reposting my list: Z41JYHV8A537
Lost my old collection of comics to story time thanks to a hardrive failure but I can post the first 17/18 pages of the eventual one day in the far flung future next issue of Orc Stain
New wallpaper I made from the new Bob's Burgers issue
>>77952988
That's magnificent. Throwing it up in my desktop now.
no page 16 to be found so gotta use your imagination until the day but heres the aftermath of it
>>77953046
Glad you like it, I was hoping it was a Christmas issue so I could make more but it was just the cover
Reposting my list: 3H7IYBFP34A8A

I'm gonna get drunk and write a Kid Loki saving Christmas story
even though I'm jewish and never read a loki story
just know that he's the prince of lies and wants to redeem himself right?
reposting my code
don't expect anything
it's about not getting your hopes up
this is the first holiday/birthday where I'm going to be alone

Calvin and Hobbes is really great. I always want the complete collection, but I hear the binding isn't good for repeated readings. Bad binding is something that always gets my goat. What's the point of a collection like that if you can't flip through it regularly?
>>77954654
I got a whole bunch of book collections of Calvin and Hobbes when I was a kid and passed them on to my cousins after I've read through them so much that the glue in the spine was starting to crack and fall off.
>>77954654
I've been slowly getting the smaller corrections because every so often they show up in thrift shops and salvation armys. Never fail to buy one when I find one.
>>77954489
In all fairness, if I recieved presents when I was a kid that literally had my name on them and weren't obviously the kind of thing you buy in a catalogue, I'd be silently horrified as well.
>>77954716
I swear to christ every time I go into this one local thrift store I find something
9 times outta 10 its a C&H or Dilbert collection but once got the first 12 volumes of Fables for $5 there
>>77954654
They actually made it from 3 volumes to 4 smaller ones to mitigate that.
>>77950951

Monday, 12/7/15 I'll be streaming the train-wreck that is The Star Wars Holiday Special at 12 PM and 6 PM PST. I'm still looking for a good free streaming service if anyone has a suggestion. And once I have a link for it I'll be posting it on the threads and at the bottom of the pastebins.

Awww that's sweet....
>>77955778
Chibi Hitler.... huh.... not sure how I feel about that.
>>77955154
Thanks, anon. I really appreciate it. Already started diving in this afternoon and am loving it.
>>77954924
I wanna go thrifting some time, my sister and I sometimes go together and have crazy luck. She got an early 1940s cast iron pan at a Goodwill for $1, and that thing is a quality they just don't make any more.
>>77955361
Well, I'm not depressed about it anymore and that's about all that'll happen until I happen to get depressed again. Thanks for remembering, though! It means a lot!
>>77955828
Ho shit, yeah they made them thick back then. That's impressive.
I once picked up a 20+ piece set of lab-grade glassware from Salvation Army, beakers and flasks and shit for about 25 dollars all together. Have no idea how it got there but they're mine now so I can do amateur chemistry stuff in my backyard without worrying about messing up my pyrex dishes.
Apparently the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC displayed Wonder Woman’s Invisible Jet for one day on April 1, 2015.
>>77956169
That's pretty funny. I wish I was around to see it, but I only moved to the area this summer.

I have no idea who Sasha is.
>>77954924
That's a nice score. Man a lot of the random shit you see on my shelves come sfrom the salvation army by work. Go 3 times a week.

How goes it puzzle hunters? Anyone cracked the first box yet?
Well that was fun. In Gotham, even Santa can't be trusted.
>>77957216
What did she get him, /co/?
>>77957169
I'm still convinced it has to do withthe final day of the 12 days of Christmas (5 o'clock, 5 golden rings, there's 12 of them, i unno), there's even some versions that end with 12 ringing bells.
Can't move past that, and can't get any passwords that work.
>>77957013
Glad you like it! Your original pic was too awesome not to do.
>>77957245dragon dillies
>>77956001
It's actually not the thickness that's the real gem with it, it's that the surface of the pan is almost as smooth as glass, and all the modern stuff is grainy in comparison. It's one gorgeous pan, especially properly seasoned, and if you take care of cast iron it'll last and last.
>>77957402
and the there's the fact that it makes a fantastic improvised weapon.
I wish I've had as lucky of thrift store finds as you all, I do have a bunch of the original Flintstones and Jetsons comic books but my best find I gave as a gift to my highschool science teacher. A signed promotional photo of all of the Apollo astronauts.
>>77957496
That's really cool. I would've kept it for myself, honestly.
How about the other Goon christmas?
>>77957528
I really was but my high school science teacher helped me a lot even before I was in high school, kinda person that was more of a father figure then my own father, even introduced me to Hitchhikers Guide.
Is it just me or does razer look a lot like kamen rider drive?
>>77957584
No? The helmet and color scheme might be where you're getting it from, but I don't see a bigass tire stuck to Razer's suit.
