DJ Matt (aka Ronin Omega) from “Future’s Guardian” has submitted the following for Christmas Day.
“As a traveler, I tend to visit different places. I’m lucky to have Miss Lady serve as my travel companion. She is curious, as all cats are, but she’s also very intuitive. She doesn’t stray too far from me when she joins me on walks.”
“This year I decided to stay in Millennium City, on Earth, for the celebration of Christmas. I’ve been to so many worlds and realities where this kind of celebration happens under different names and have different customs. But, on this world, the combination of traditions merged into one celebrated on one day makes it unique, and often something that is taken for granted when it comes to human travelers such as myself.”
“Miss Lady joined me as I took a stroll from our common travel home to the Renaissance Center. There were, of course, the usual threats. Some mad toyman leaving mysterious presents and various criminal factions trying to claim ownership of them or shaking down those who try to open those presents. A giant mechanical teddy bear menacing the city. I’ve even seen a gremlin or two roaming about.”
“And at the same time, I’ve also seen joy and merriment through the city. I’ve seen heroes engaging in snowball and taco fights instead of duels. Exchanging gifts instead of witty comebacks. And that feeling of joy and goodwill is reflected through the city especially on Christmas Day. I’ve even seen members of the New Purple Gang engage in acts of charity instead of their usual predatory ways.”
“Later today, Miss Lady and I will be joining John Battle and Starlett for a Christmas Day celebration. I’m told even our supervisor, Major Cross, will be joining us, which is rare since he usually spends the day with his family outside of the city. I’m sure it will be a great celebration for our little group.”
“Miss Lady and I wish you all Happy Holidays – in any way you say it and in any way you celebrate it.”
From all of us at Battlerock Comics, we want to wish you all Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays – in any way you say it and in any way you celebrate it.
