It’s a Christmas Miracle!
Merry Christmas, Action Agents! We got you an all-new comic story starring the World’s Greatest Half-Vampire Skateboard Champion Private Detective, Solomon Stone! Just click the image above for nine pages of holiday cheer from your pals at the Action Age!
And it’s truly a Christmas Miracle: our own Chris Sims wrote this story in a fit of the Christmas Spirit last week, and “Dynamite” Matt Digges stepped in for Matthew Allen Smith, Solomon Stone’s regular artist, to pencil, ink, color and letter the story in just ten days!
We hope you like it, and from Chris, Chad, Matt, Smithy, Ben, Rusty, Kate, Steve, Nathan, Andrew, Teddy, Ezra, Penny, Dr. Blake, Judah, Pete, Solomon and Minxy…
Happy Holidays!

Brilliant. Fantastic bits of world-building round the edges (Pere Leon!), and the Anti-Santa is just an irresistible comic idea. Loved it.

Sims, you’re just like Grant Morrison… in, as much as I enjoyed the story its self, what Ive really walked away with is a desire to read more about Mother Mayhem, Pere Leon and especially Boxing Dave (the character find of late 2009!)

Another thrill-a-second Solomon spectacular, Stone Agers! This was a close one, too! Thank little baby Jesus that Minxy didn’t call them ‘biscuits!’ She IS from England, they say.
Thanks to Santa’s Secret Weapon, Chris Sims, for bringing the yuletide cheer, and a standing ovation to Matt Digges for delivering the presents on time!
So this Christmas, forget gold, frankincense, and myrrh! The discerning mage gives Action Age!

Man… so I totally think my heart just grew three sizes.
Nice work, Misters Sims and Digges — and Merry Christmas to all!

The Misfit Toys just killed me. I can’t decide which one is better, the jack-in-a-box with the SMG, or the PunishBear. Those suckers deserve a mini, at least.
And the Twilight copy just grabbed me off-guard. I wonder if it’s anotated…

That was just great. Actually think I enjoyed the Christmas special more than #1, the comic timing in this one is just wonderful. Thought the art was pretty great too, even without qualifying it with the status of rushed fill-in (add that in, and it is really really great). Awesome job!

Great comic, lovely art! I did think Solomon had a bag of coal to beat the tar out of Atnas when he entered, but the truth was yet more awesome.

I *love* this! Especially “When I lay my fist upside your nose!” My new battle cry whenever I’m fighting Santa’s evil brother.
Now I wish we’d done a SMASH Christmas comic! Maybe next year…
