Scott’s Comic Book Cover Advent Calendar – December 10th
Filed under: Comics
Another stocking gag cover, though given the cover date on this comic, it was probably one of the first to use the joke. In this case, it’s a variant of the “hole in the stocking” gag — it’s the “use an enormous stocking” gag. (Now I’m no zoologist, but those stockings seem incredibly long, even for a giraffe — unless they go all the way up the neck as well).

that looks more like a giraffe onesie turtleneck. And is it just me, or are their tails really long? And if they want santa to come, why don’t they put out the fire in the fireplace? Man, I wish I had giraffe-sized onesie turtleneck.
