Kid Christmas Meets Snow Globes by Eric Arvin

[reviews_and_ramblings]

This is a funny little romp, less than 20 pages and all a show of the skill of the author in puns intended. The Old Santa Claus is passed away, bless him, and a new Santa Claus is needed; since the time has changed and the grandpa look is no more fashion, the Committee chooses a 23 years old hunk who likes to be called Kid Christmas... he loves all the Old Western things, and he has a very interesting six "shooter"...

But there is also a villain that doesn't like Christmas, Snow Globes (and yes he has very big globes) and kidnaps the Kid. Only that, even if full of initiatives, our Kid is easily distracted by big... globes, and so he has no easy way with Snow Globes and his army of icy willie...

All right, how can I be serious in a tale like that? You can only read and enjoy and play with the author with the all too obvious puns and dreaming that, if wars would be fight in that way, it would be a more interesting world!

I like Eric Arvin's work; he is desecrating and funny, sometime also creepy (but not in this tale); I believe that he loves the old classic (movie and similar) and he enjoys to give them a new "twist".
