Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #89
In this festive, offbeat issue of Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #89, Uatu and Black Bolt guide readers through a delightfully bizarre holiday tour across multiple Earths and species, where Christmas takes on wildly unexpected forms—from Treebeard as a decorated tree to the Borg swapping fabric swatches, and even Bond sharing a holiday with Goldfinger. With quirky moments like the Snorks freezing in the snow and the Peanuts reminding Linus they attend public school, the issue blends absurdity and heart, all while Galactus continues his quiet, ominous feast on Earth. Written by Pat McCallum, Tom Root, Zach Oat, Justin Aclin, Jon Gutierrez, Doug Goldstein, and Chris Ward, this surreal holiday special is a uniquely strange celebration of the season.

Uatu and Black Bolt take the readers on a tour of how people on different Earths and plants are celebrating Christmas. Treebeard is a Christmas tree, John Boy kills his father, children give presents to Claus, Rodimus tries to kill himself, and Lindsay Lohan gets lingerie. The Snorks freeze to death, Aunt May morns Uncle Ben, Bond and Goldfinger spend the holidays together, the Predators are Jewish, the Borg trade swatches, and Kubricks give gifts. The Peanuts point out to Linus they go to a public school. Meanwhile, Galactus has been eating the Earth.
