"CHRISTMAS IS CANCELED!" Quirkville's zombies, humans, and extraterrestrials are distressed to discover that an unexpected storm may keep Santa away from town. Never fear: Reginald, Zarfon, and Abigail Zink (Peanut Butter & Brains) save Santa--and Christmas--from what turns out to be a marshmallow blizzard. Funny sound effects ("SPLOINK"; "JINGLE JINGLE"), Zarfon's non-verbal speech balloons, and larger-than-life comedy deliver a sweet-and-salty tale.
