So when I saw this graphic novel on Netgalley, I knew I had to read it. I love the history surrounding his story, where he's from and the different variations of him. I'm just overwhelmed and frankly tired of what Christmas should be like, and spoiling our already spoiled children and family.Īnyway, when I read about Krampus he was a creature that punished bad children and was the nightmare of their dreams.

It was about family and being together, and Christmas now is about who gets the most expensive gifts. I hate how Christmas has become something completely different from what it was when I was a kid. Last year I read Brom's Krampus: The Yule Lord and feel in love with the story of Krampus. With his help he is to take down who has stole the remains and return them where they belong. The only one that can save them now is Krampus, the Yule Lord. Nicholas skeletal remains in turn compromising all the Santa Clauses of the world magic. Krampus has been in captivity by the Society of Santa Clauses for hundreds of years. This graphic novel is HILARIOUS! It was great story and plot, and this Krampus had me laughing out loud. Thank you Netgalley and Diamond Book Distributors for providing me with a free copy for review! I'll leave a lager and some pretzels for you. To quote the Dowager Countess - 'At my age, one must ration one's excitement.' I'm willing to risk some overexcitement to have another visit from my favorite holiday devil. The book ends with hints that Krampus will indeed return. Decent art, clever plot, funny dialogue, and bizarre circumstances - Krampus and Doc Holliday? And Doc rides an annoying singing horse! Too funny! There are evil pixies, nasty nutcrackers and a villain who looks like a male stripper - what more can you ask for? Plus, I loved Kramus's 'pet' - Stutgaard! BUT, to make sure he stays on task, he's fitted with a Naughty Bomb, which will go BOOM! if Krampus is a bad demon. IF he can get the bones back, he will earn his freedom.

This conclave of formerly-jolly men reluctantly release the beast from his cell, interrupting his Downton Abbey viewing he is a huge fan of the Dowager Countess. The Secret Society of Santas needs them back, so who they gonna call? Nicholas have been stolen, which is never a good thing.
