If you were around last year you may have noticed this same story torn from the first issue of PANIC comicbook. And if you and I are around next year chances are you will see it again. That is what you call a tradition, son! Here, have a cigar.
PANIC was published by the same comicbook publisher (EC publlishing) that published MAD. In fact, PANIC utilized the same EC artists. However, the stories were written by different people. Harvey Kurtzman did all of MAD and PANIC had a swinging door as far as writers go.
This story was in the first issue of PANC and drawn by Will Elder, old time MAD and LITTLE ANNIE FANNIE (PLAYBOY) favorite. This story was one of the few comicbook stories that was banned in Boston. Apparently you can make fun of religion but hands off on Santa.
