“Secret Santa”

In "Secret Santa," the Ventriloquist and Scarface—once a fearsome duo—are now separated and undergoing therapy at Arkham. Months later, Arnold Wesker seems transformed, but as Harley Quinn prepares a lavish Christmas party for Gotham’s rogues, the Joker quietly stirs old memories, hoping to reignite the partnership and set them back on a path of chaos. Written by Alan Burnett and Paul Dini, with art by Ty Templeton and inks by Sean Parsons, this festive tale unfolds with a tense undercurrent beneath the holiday cheer, all rendered in rich colors by Monica Kubina and lettered by AndWorld Design. The cover, by Mirka Andolfo, captures the eerie warmth of the season.

Captured after one of their criminal sprees, the Ventriloquist and Scarface are separated. Several months of therapy at Arkham follow, and Arnold Wesker appears to be cured.
