“Wanted: Santa Claus -- Dead or Alive!”

In "Wanted: Santa Claus — Dead or Alive!", Tiny Tom Ratchet takes matters into his own hands when he uncovers his father’s employer, Mr. Scrounge, secretly harboring criminals in the junkyard. With a Dickensian twist, the Teen Titans step in as spectral guides—haunting Scrounge as the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future—while the holiday season hangs in the balance. Written by Bob Haney and brought to life with Nick Cardy’s dynamic art and Helen Vesik’s rich colors, this festive tale blends holiday spirit with a touch of noir, all capped by Ty Templeton’s striking cover.

After Tiny Tom Ratchet discovers that his father's employer, Mr. Scrounge, is letting criminals use the junkyard for illicit activity, he contacts the Teen Titans — who, noting the situation's parallels to Dickens' classic tale, haunt Scrounge as the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future.
