Jacked Santa is back, and he's bringing all of comics with him. Klaus is back on Earth in modern times after spending an indeterminate time locked in the moon for participating in the Lunar Civil War. Now he has to contend with the Witch of Winter, who is kidnapping children and building a wooden army of snow golems to reclaim the boundaries of her frozen kingdom lost to global warming. Also, in Crisis in Xmasville, good ole fashioned American consumerism meets eldritch horror as the negative version of Santa is summoned by the Pola Cola Corporation in the revitalization of their decades old trademark dispute about the galactic rights to the concept of Christmas. Once a year is too long for this series. This week, Matt, Sam, Jae, and Jacob read and discuss Klaus: How Santa Claus Began by Grant Morrison and Dan Mora.Read along, meme along, or just yell at our bad opinions by following @OverMangaCast on Twitter.YouTube / Instagram / FacebookLeave a review: Podchaser
