Batman - Santa Claus: Silent Knight Returns #1 Cover

Batman - Santa Claus: Silent Knight Returns #1 (January, 2025) came out this week just in time to celebrate Thanksgiving today. The cover features Batman, Robin, Zatanna and Santa Claus. The story actually contains most of the Justice League. I think this is the first time that I noticed that Flash's daughter is named Thunderheart. Yes, this mini-series is a sequel to last year's mini-series.

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.

Countdown to Christmas 2023 Day 9: A Home For KAKEman Book

If you grew up in Kansas in the 1970s and 1980s, then you may have fond memories of KAKEman. He was the toy assistant to Santa Claus (Henry Harvey) on Santa's Workshop, which appeared on KAKE (Channel 10) every weekday afternoon in December. He became Toyboy when the tv show switched to KWCH (Channel 12). Now he's back in a children's book by Cassidy Sutton titled A Home For KAKEman. All proceeds go to the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Wichita to help families of children with critical conditions to receive the support they need.

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.
