The town of Grimsvig is suffering under the tyrannical rule of Lord Magnus. The men of the town are sent to the mines every day for who knows what reason and no toys are allowed in Grimsvig. With nothing to play with, the fun and zest for life is being drained away from the kids of the town. Even throwing a rock can be seen as a playing with a toy. Klaus comes to town and refuses to let this continue. Will he succeed? What secrets does this town have? Why are the men working in the mines? Why can't the children have toys? How does Klaus become Santa? Find answers to these questions and more in this jolly holiday episode!

Ho Ho Ho, merry Christmas! Well, not for these guys. It's been awhile since anyone's actually celebrated Christmas. Santa hasn't been seen in a while either. What's going on in this world? Well, a curse fell upon the land...Santa has been cursed to lie dormant within his ancestors, only to be awakened when they wear something red. A kid named Sanda avoids the color red. A classmate named Fuyumura knows that Sanda is actually Santa because of it, and she needs Santa's help to find her missing friend Ono. What does she do? She corners Sanda in a classroom and stabs him, allowing his blood to turn his clothes red. Finally, after decades, Santa has reemerged!! Now it's time for Santa to help Fuyumura find her missing friend, and maybe bring back Christmas in the process. Will Sanda do it, or is he in way over his head. Hear about this and more in our reivew of the manga Sanda by Paru Itagaki!

Now's his time to strike, to finally steal back land from the Romans and to take back power. There's only one problem, the woman that he loves is lost somewhere amongst enemy lines. Not only does he have to lead his people, he has to find his love. Little does he know, she is determined to finish the mission she started, and killing a few Germans on the side is a small price to pay.

This review is one you don't want to miss.

Paris. Helen. Achilles. Agamemnon. Odysseus. What do all these names have in common? They are characters from Homer's Illiad, and some of the main characters in the comic we are reading today, Age of Bronze. This comic is about a young man named Paris who grew up as a son of a farmer, and later learned that he was the son of a king. This king brought him back into the family, which only served to make him more arrogant. His newly discovered father sent him on a mission to rescue his father's sister, but Paris's arrogance wouldn't allow him to use his father's military might to capture an "old woman that no one cares about". Instead, he seduces and steals Helen of Troy, a woman that was married to another man. This started a whole chain of events that led to the infamous Trojan War. Learn about this and more in our review of the second book in our roman/greek history theme, The Age of Bronze by Eric Shanower
