  6. This is a very appropriate cover for this day. May you all be blessed as we celebrate the birth of our Savior. Ross, thank you for the covers that you give. It is so nice to see these ideas that you have, and as I have said before, I wish the companies with the rights to all the characters you depict would consider actually writing these stories and put them out. There is good stuff on these blogs.

  7. Merry Christmas to you also Ross. Perfect cover for today. Captures the innocence, joy, and comeraderie of youth, something we should all strive for from time to time.

  14. Thank you, and a slightly belated "Happy Christmas!" back.

    Reading some back-issues of various Superman-related comics from the 1980s recently, I found an amusing reference. Morgan Edge had given Cat Grant's son Adam a really fancy (child-sized, driveable) "toy" car, and when thanking him for the gift Adam gloated:
    "Wait until my friend Calvin sees this. All he's got is that silly stuffed tiger."

  15. I was offline (for the most part) over the weekend, but I do want to say that this is a dead-on cover for Christmas.

    And that I hope your holiday, Ross, and those of all the regulars here was simply fantastic.

  16. Ironic use of the most I merchandized comic strip of all time and the one holdout to merchandizing in any form. Would enjoy reading this.

  17. It would have been especially interesting to see the Peanuts characters' reaction to some of Calvin's snow creations!
