The Last Christmas #5

The five-issue Image miniseries wraps up in style with this finale, featuring a battered, battle-hardened Santa Claus standing defiantly atop a wrecked vehicle, assault rifle in hand, as a massive explosion roars behind him and rotting zombie hands claw up from every direction. Tony Moore's cover art captures the series' gleeful collision of holiday cheer and post-apocalyptic horror with real energy — St. Nick has never looked quite this grim or this determined. Writers Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn, artist Rick Remender, and inker Hilary Barta bring their zombie-Christmas saga to its conclusion in what promises to be a suitably chaotic finale.
