Christmas may be over but Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #4 is now out from DC Comics. The cover features Batman, Robin, Santa Claus and Krampus. Black Canary, Batgirl, Nightwing, Green Arrow, Blue Beetle and Miss Martian help Batman and Santa Claus battle a possessed Superman and banished monsters. Meanwhile, Krampus has Robin locked in a cage in a place called the Gnome Hall. Wonder Woman, Green Lantern Jo Mullein and Hawkgirl arrive to help Batman and the gang. This is the last issue of the mini-series and the ending was great.

Countdown to Christmas 2023 Day 20: Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #3 Cover
Hawkgirl and Wonder Woman are on the cover of Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #3 from DC Comics. This makes for a great Women Wednesday post for Christmas. The issue starts with Hawkgirl, Green Lantern Jo Mullein and Wonder Woman fighting Harpies in London. Then the scene switches to Blue Beetle meeting up with Superman, Batman, Nightwing, Batgirl, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Robin and Miss Martian. Yes, this is starting to feel more like a Justice League book at this point. They are expecting Santa Claus to show up but Peppermint Jon, a Huldufolk aka an elf, shows up instead. He takes them to Norway via a portal where Santa is fighting a sea serpent named Gandr. Superman punches the beast but is excited to meet Santa. He helps him lead the beast to the secret valley while Peppermint Jon teleports the other superheroes to Greenland ahead of them. They find Krampus and attack before Santa and Superman arrive. Superman gets possessed and attacks the others before Krampus teleports away with Robin. More monsters show up thanks to Superman destroying a glacier. This sets up the next and final issue due out next week.

Don't forget that Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #2 will be released this week from DC Comics. The cover features Batman, Santa Claus and Krampus. Miss Martin, Green Arrow and Black Canary appears to help Batman, Robin, Batgirl and NIghtwing fight the vampire-like Draug. Zatanna is still in a coma-like state and Santa's helpers are still looking for a special flower. A surprise guest star also shows up to help at the end.

Countdown to Christmas 2023 Day 6: Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #1 Cover
DC Comics released Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #1 today. The cover features Superman reading a classic Batman comic book from the Golden Age to a boy sitting on his lap. Santa Claus is pictured in the "word balloon" above Superman. Batman and Wonder Woman are in the background along with a bunch of wicked bat-like creatures.
The issue is titled "Ghosts of Christmas Past" and starts with Batman and Robin (Damian) investigating the deaths of carolers murdered by bat-like creatures. Robin's first thought is that Man-Bat is the culprit but then Zatanna shows up to reveal that the creatures are the Draug, which are Nordic vampires. They are attacked by the Draug and Santa Claus shows up on Prancer. Batgirl and Nightwing are then shown fighting the Draug before Santa Claus and his new friends joins them.
There's more to the story but I won't spoil it all here. Yeah, this Christmas tale is nice horror element and I can't wait to read Batman/Santa Claus: Silent Knight #2. Maybe next year, DC Comics will put out a Santa Claus, Vampire Hunter mini-series that will last from October to December.
