LOL! Now THAT’S a gift only Santa could leave! Great tag for the story!

Great ending, that was a fun story.

Did you read the instructions for how to land, first?

Awe … Some!!!

Get helmets, before you discover why!

Watch it, kids. You can burn your butts off with those things.

Yes, those things need blast shields….BADLY!! (Bet they make a heluva racket, too!!)

And Dad is looking up wishing he could get one, too.

And many more gray hairs for the moms!

Im with Gene. Thanks for a great story! Fin.

Sweet finale.

OK,one detail escapes me. What did the boys do besides observe the going ons ? How did that help ?

Enjoy them while you can boys, because now that your parents know those are real there’s no way they’re going to let you keep those jetpacks.

I must say, I like how so nonchalantly the father is just watching them fly.

Jet packs? Now that’s a Christmas present.

SANTA GAVE THEM JET PACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course, Santa knew to include the plutonium fuel rods.

I have seriously enjoyed this arc!

Love the look on dad’s face, “Where’s mine?”.

Color Dad jealous!

“Nipple, nipple, tweak tweak, fly, fly, FLY!”

Oh that is excellent

Definitely charred pants are in the boys’ future.

Oh man, I am so freaking jealous! At least someone gets to live out my childhood dream.

Yay! What a ride! You da man, Tauhid!

You guys need a good helmet, leather flying jacket, and gloves and boots for the whole Rocketeer effect. But, this is a comic strip, so they will be just fine. Remember kids, always be willing to help Santa. This is great.

Wow!! Santa really came through!

I NEED one! Ha!

That IS something special for reaching the very top of the Nice list! Fun arc!

After all this time, I no longer remember what “those things” are…

At least some people got their “welcome-to-the-far-flung-future-year-of-2025” jet packs.

Makes me wanna watch Rocketeer again.

KEWELL!!!!
