Bad kangaroo rat! Bad! (http://missmab.com/Comics/HJ_03.php)
The Auld Grump, straight to the naughty list with you!
*EDIT* Added Linky.
Title probably sucks, first time starting a topic for a comic. ever.
Jyrras really doesn't like pigeons it seems, who can blame him. If that is Santa, then now it seems we know why Jyrras doesn't believe in him, Santa tries to avoid death trap rooftops. Only reason he has to go this year is Deebs. But i think Jyrras will still get something in his stocking, the repair bill for one slay, millions of toys, and the vet bill for 9 reindeer.
(edit) Seems the topic isn't mine anymore, oh well, maybe next time.
if santa dies, does that mean jyrras is the new santa claus?
personally i don't think he could fit the role. too skinny way too skinny

You didn't see that movie with Tim Allen, did you?
I figure if Santa were coming to Jyrras' place, he'd wear power armor.
Oh, here I was thinking of the Sluggy Freelance Holiday Wars. Santa is a good holiday to get -- you stop time for everything except yourself (and maybe the easter bunny) until you've delivered presents to every kid in the world. Imagine what Jyrass could do with infinite time!

Just thinking about Sluggy gives me a headache. The archives were HUGENORMANTIC five years ago when I read them. I don't even want to imagine what they're like now...
But I did read that storyline. It was... odd. Like everything else in that comic.

eh i don't watch too many movies but i was actually referring what Jy's mother said about him and Lorenda in comic 330 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_330.php)

Don't worry - there
will be a next time. And I only beat you by 24 seconds - mine was not up when you started posting, I just hit Post sooner.
My title wasn't any better, so I may have gotten first post, but you got the title! :P

NOOOOOOOO!! NOT SANTA!!
Jy's definitely on the naughty list now.
now i have to wonder what the heck a cthulu defense grid would look like

Lots of tentacles, and maybe some madness.
"Crap"? :erk
That's all you have to say about it?
I approve of Jyrras' overly elaborate rooftop defenses. I want.
Non-Euclidean Cthulhoid Defense Grid sounds like the coolest thing Jy has ever made, ever. The power of madness and tentacles, mwahahaha :mwaha
My, the comic has taken a predictable little turn ^-^

That typo is probably more apt than it really ought to be >.>

I was thinking the same thing.
Who wants to take bets on that Santa is actually a Fae? :D
My, Jyrras really walked into that one, didn't he? Saying the equivalent of "Oh, that could never happen!" in that fashion is almost as bad as saying "This should be easy!" or "Nothing could possibly go wrong!" or "This is going to be the best and most memorable wedding you and Hennya will ever have!"
Fantastic. Abel's expression of despair in the button below the comic is rather appropriate too.
Shall we let Deebs poke the cadaver with a pointed stick?
I'm seeing jyrras all concered over te poor man while deebs tries to hide a massive sack full of goodies
i stop you all, for a moment, to realize the true cool factor of the following;
The Reverse Tesla Atmospheric harvester, a device that acts as a lightning rod, but stores the energy. Go MAD SCIENCE!
The Nanoshard Ozone Monitoring System, which shouldn't factor in, due to it's size, but maybe it's also sharp? Still, cool.
Non-Euclidean (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Euclidean_geometry) Cthuloid Defense Grid!?! Umm??? Used for air traffic control... yes...
The Motion-Responsive Master Blaster Array. Um, if this isn't dealing with a video game, I would think he's a little paranoid. But most importantly, He's calculated the most optimum route using all known air currents... wow.

That was my thought as well, and we know how much love Jyrras has for the Fae. Anyway, if not Fae, isn't Santa by definition a magical entity?
For some reason Albanion keeps coming to mind... hmmm.
... master blaster array... :giggle
One Santa enters... no Santa leaves >:3
Angry Santa is Angry :B
I am happy to not be in Jyras shoes.

I think in the Furrae universe, this would make the most logical sense given that Santa is basically a magical being

While my Mom was never like this, my grandmother on my Dad's side certainly was. She wanted to take us away from my Mom and fatten us up because she thought me and my brother was too thin.
Alright, even if it's not canon, those descriptions (Mab's enchantments especially) intrigue me and make me wish to hear more.
On a different note, if I wasn't hooked before, I am now.

So Jyrras is the Master, then.
Does that make Dan or Abel Blaster?

No, no, you need someone who can crank up the "oversized rampaging thug" on demand. Dan and Abel are both too skinny (shapeshifting ability notwithstanding).
Lorenda.
Hint for Chaos: MasterBlaster is a character in an old Mel Gibson movie called Mad Max-Beyond Thunderdome. It's actually two people-a megalomaniac genius midget that runs the power plant for a post-apocalyptic settlement(Master) and his giant thug (Blaster) who usually carries Master around on his back. Mel Gibson (as Mad Max Rockatansky) becomes a pawn in a power struggle between them and the town's leader, Aunty Entity (Tina Turner).
Master Blaster is also a character in the old Saturday morning cartoon show Kidd Video. Given Amber's previous references to Fraggles and Captain N, this would also seem to be a possible source.
Kidd Video started in 1984 and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome was in 1985.
Stevie Wonder also had a song entitled Master Blaster (Jammin') in 1980.
Looks like nobody gets presents for Christmas.
Unless if Santa can take that kind of abuse and live.
Jy-Jy better make some cookies with some milk real quick here and make them extra good. Cause if he doesn't figure a way to bribe Santa, I fear that he'll have more to fear than just a lump of coal.
After all if Jyras can probably make diamonds out of coal. So Santa will have to think of something else for that attack on his sleigh.
Jyrras will probably do the repairs to the sleigh himself. And taking over the deliveries...
Turbo-charged sleigh, anyone?
Jyrras's upgrades to normal things scare me. no thank you i don't want a diaper table that can fight an army or a Santa slay that can destroy a continent.
Okay, folks
slay - to kill
sleigh - a sled, especially one pulled by horses or reindeer
^^^^
Thank you
Hmmm, an epic poem some Ogden Nash, perhaps? Is Jyrras a pseudonym for Jabez Dawes?
The Boy Who Laughed At Santa Claus
In Baltimore there lived a boy.
He wasn't anybody's joy.
Although his name was Jabez Dawes,
His character was full of flaws.
In school he never led his classes,
He hid old ladies' reading glasses,
His mouth was open when he chewed,
And elbows to the table glued.
He stole the milk of hungry kittens,
And walked through doors marked NO ADMITTANCE.
He said he acted thus because
There wasn't any Santa Claus.
Another trick that tickled Jabez
Was crying 'Boo' at little babies.
He brushed his teeth, they said in town,
Sideways instead of up and down.
Yet people pardoned every sin,
And viewed his antics with a grin,
Till they were told by Jabez Dawes,
'There isn't any Santa Claus!'
Deploring how he did behave,
His parents swiftly sought their grave.
They hurried through the portals pearly,
And Jabez left the funeral early.
Like whooping cough, from child to child,
He sped to spread the rumor wild:
'Sure as my name is Jabez Dawes
There isn't any Santa Claus!'
Slunk like a weasel of a marten
Through nursery and kindergarten,
Whispering low to every tot,
'There isn't any, no there's not!'
The children wept all Christmas eve
And Jabez chortled up his sleeve.
No infant dared hang up his stocking
For fear of Jabez' ribald mocking.
He sprawled on his untidy bed,
Fresh malice dancing in his head,
When presently with scalp-a-tingling,
Jabez heard a distant jingling;
He heard the crunch of sleigh and hoof
Crisply alighting on the roof.
What good to rise and bar the door?
A shower of soot was on the floor.
What was beheld by Jabez Dawes?
The fireplace full of Santa Claus!
Then Jabez fell upon his knees
With cries of 'Don't,' and 'Pretty Please.'
He howled, 'I don't know where you read it,
But anyhow, I never said it!'
'Jabez' replied the angry saint,
'It isn't I, it's you that ain't.
Although there is a Santa Claus,
There isn't any Jabez Dawes!'
aid Jabez then with impudent vim,
'Oh, yes there is, and I am him!
Your magic don't scare me, it doesn't'
And suddenly he found he wasn't!
From grimy feet to grimy locks,
Jabez became a Jack-in-the-box,
An ugly toy with springs unsprung,
Forever sticking out his tongue.
The neighbors heard his mournful squeal;
They searched for him, but not with zeal.
No trace was found of Jabez Dawes,
Which led to thunderous applause,
And people drank a loving cup
And went and hung their stockings up.
All you who sneer at Santa Claus,
Beware the fate of Jabez Dawes,
The saucy boy who mocked the saint.
Donner and Blitzen licked off his paint.
Yes, Ladies and Gentlemen, Beings of All Ages, I think that we have found our suspect!
The Auld Grump

*Charline grins* If anyone laughed at me, they'd have a wee bit more to worry about than becoming a Jack-in-the-box.
*thinks* Come to think of it... that was what that crazy kid with the insane level of telekinetic and psychic powers did to that guy in the "Twilight Zone"... :U SANTA CLAUS IS THAT KID!!!

one there was a pun in there. (think nightmare before Christmas )
and two Google spell check doesn't catch most wrong word errors.
Well here's a funny thought...
Maybe it's just Daniel, a-crashing on his roof. :P
Isn't master Blaster also the name of a nintendo game where you gotta go save your mutant frog that escapes for your house and you get a big freaking wheeled tank to drive on walls and stuff?

I can
so see a Fae playing/creating the character of Santa Claus. And it would address so many of the challenges Santa must meet.
I admit, I can also see Dan having gotten recruited as a Santa helper during his adventuring years.
