Holiday Reading Room: ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND "Man Who Didn't Believe in Christmas"
I'm not sure what to make of this story.
It's "A Christmas Carol", yet it's not!
Weird, eh?
This story appeared in Adventures in Wonderland #5 (1956), the Christmas issue, and both writer and artist are unknown.
The editor/publisher was Lev Gleason, who had also published a number of classic comic series including Crime Does Not Pay, DareDevil Comics, and Silver Streak Comics.
However,
this was at the tail end of his career, and being constrained by the
newly-implemented Comics Code Authority apparently didn't sit well with
him.
Perhaps this tale was his commentary on the sort of bland material he felt the Code was limiting him to?

Prepare for 2016's Thanksgiving Turkey...
Due to time constraints...
...this year's Thanksgiving Turkey is going to be a little smaller, but no less tasty!
A couple of years ago, our "brother" RetroBlog, Hero Histories, ran the never-reprinted story of how World War II aviator-hero Blackhawk and his crew were turned into Swinging Sixties super-heroes working for a spy organization!
(If you haven't read it already, do so!
You won't believe your eyes!)
This year, you'll get to see their final superheroic saga, only 13 issues later!
But, before you reach for the Pepto-Bismol, we'll present the dessert to end all desserts...
...the never-reprinted reboot that also retold the Origin of Blackhawk!
Bring the sweet potatoes, greens of your choice and biscuits starting tomorrow at Hero Histories!
