Christmas Creep

Christmas Creep supervillian sits at computer: Mwah-ha-ha  Soon there'll be Christmas advertisements in January  Explosion behind him  Boom  He is surrounded by huge crowd of superheroes  Um wow  I didn't even know there were this many heroes  Wait, aren'te some of you retired  Aeriform: You don't mess with Christmas

The Christmas Creep is a supervillian, and he aims to make us sick of Christmas by pushing merchandising to the extremes.  Normally I'd say to eliminate with extreme prejudice, but I'm not sure that's really in the Christmas spirit either. 

Note:  Yes, this week's comic is far from being called complete (between how many characters are involved and real-world stresses, this is semi-justifiable).  But I figured it's at least in a complete-enough stage that everyone can still get the joke, so today you get a behind-the-scenes look at how these things are put together.  I promise I'll finish the lineart and coloring ...eventually. 

EDIT:  I finally finished it!  It only took, what, an extra month or so?  Anyway, I figured this was historic enough (even if not in all the right ways) that I'm keeping the original sketch around for posterity.  (click to enlarge)

A Light Amount

Andrew, Anni Seed, and Pepper Mint the reindeer look at brightly glowing Christmas tree  Andrew: See, this is why I don't like your cousin visiting  Anni: Well, I admit she's a little flamboyant  Andrew: And how many lights did she cram on that tree  Anni: Er how many are in the state  Pepper: Ta-dah  Do you like it  Is it not enough

How many lights?  More than should be physically possible to fit on any tree. 

Anni Seed returns, this time joined by her cousin Pepper Mint, who's visiting for the holidays (yes, she's a reindeer).  And you thought living with one reality-warping cartoon deer was insane enough.

Cats in the Christmas Tree

Crazy cat people methods of dealing with the yearly cat-in-the-Christmas-tree battle  Give up and decorate a scratching post  Give up and decoratte the tree with cat toys  Keep the tree in a locked room  Keep the cats in a locked room  Mew  Exploit it and create a laser-pointer Christmas tree  Distract them with the laser-pointer tree  Coat the tree in cooking spray  Decorate a cactus instead

You could also try decorating the cat, if you're bored and feel like thumbing your nose at PETA.
