And of course to finish off the list of world-saving heroes from the heavens we have to give a nod to the little guy the day is all about. Seen here in his guise of Son-O-God c0-created by Sean Kelly and Neal Adams for National Lampoon, the redeemer himself is no slouch. He's supposed to come back to Earth one day, some say sooner than later. I just hope we are wise enough to let him cross the border when he does. I fear we are not.
Here's a more respectful rendition of the nativity by Tex Blaisdell for a 1947 issue of Treasure Chest.
And here's the scene as rendered by Prince Valiant artist Hal Foster. To see the full 1947 story check out this heaven-sent link.
Wherever you are and whatever you believe have a safe and enjoyable time. Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, and Happy Holidays to one and all!
