Today’s comic features a gag by my friend Jennifer M. Contino. For many years, Jen was a comics journalist (Entertainment Weekly, Wizard, Sequential Tart and others.)
These days, she’s the self-pronounced “Queen of Christmas comics.” (Even Santa doesn’t have a Christmas comic book collection as big as hers!)
However, they are prepared to offer an unreasonable substitute. After all, the guys work at the toy factory for 364 days a year, without a break, if you get my drift.
Get your batteries at Packratjohn’s. Our batteries deliver more vibes per volt than any other battery on the market. More Amps for your a$$. More Watts for your “Wahoo!”
Ask yourself, am I a series or parallel type of guy? We can help you decide. Then you too can hear people ask, “Have you been to Packratjohn’s or are you just happy to see me?”
Packratjohn’s, where the batteries keep coming and coming.

Ask Mrs. Claus where she got hers.

Not publicly. Ask for the key to the back room door with the “Employees Only” sign.

If they made “those” kinds of toys, nothing else would get done all year.

Dear Billy,
Yes, I have the “dirty books” you mentioned. But if your Dad really wants them, he’s going to have to write his own letter.
Sincerely,
S. Claus

The Hells Bikers M.C. had strict rules regarding both their club’s colors and personal appearance (red club colors and white hair and beard).
(I dunno – that Santa just looked kind of rough to me)

Maybe if she had a coal-powered “toy”?…
