Jingle Belle (Paperback)

Sometimes, life hands you a raw deal. For instance, being Jingle Belle, the daughter of Santa Claus, can't be the easiest thing in the world. Here's the one guy in charge of bringing joy to children around the globe, so what's a self-aware young girl going to do when he neglects her happiness? Well, get even, of course! And have a little fun in the process! Jingle Belle is tired of sitting on the sidelines, and she's going to get her old man to notice her or ruin his life in the process. And whether that's enlisting the Grim Reaper as a department store substitute Santa, joining the local hockey team, or just cutting out to party with the cool kids, Jingle Belle is prepared to do it. This rib-tickling new collection of long and short stories by Paul Dini teams him with some of the finest artists in comics today - including Sergio Aragones ("Groo"), Bill Morrison ("Roswell", "Simpsons" comics), Stephen DeStefano ("Bizzaro" comics), Jill Thompson ("Scary Godmother"), Steve Rolston ("Pounded", "Mek") and Jeff Smith ("Bone"), as well as a special crossover with Chynna Clugston-Major's "Blue Monday" and the Eisner-nominated "Mighty Elves" one-shot drawn by J. Bone ("Mutant", "TX")! nThis holiday treat sports a fancy new cover by "Samurai Jack" and "PowerPuff Girls" character designer Lynne Naylor and a snazzy color summer-vacation story by Dini, DeStefano, and Laura Allred ("X-Force").
