“The Protector”
In "The Protector," Veronica grows tired of the saccharine holiday cheer and teams up with Reggie to challenge the season’s idealism—turning the usual Christmas warmth into a test of just how far greed can go. With Dan DeCarlo’s signature style and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks bringing the mischief to life, this 1969 gem captures a playful rebellion in full swing.
