When their father inadvertently wipes out the family's Christmas budget, the Pickett twins are stuck in Gross Point for the holiday--with nothing to even vaguely remind them of a normal Yule. It's not the least bit a wonderful life when their only support comes from Dr. Goobai, who sells suicide machines over the home shopping network. Rounding out the issue is another installment of "Spoiled Rotten"--this time, an insane tour of the BlodgO toy factory! Written by Matt Wayne and Dan Slott. Art and cover by Roger Langridge and Joe Staton. FC, 32 pg. Miraweb Format. Cover price $2.50.

Written by Matt Wayne. Art by Bill Alger and Roger Langridge. Cover by S.M. Taggart. FC, 32 pg. Miraweb Format. Cover price $2.50.

In "The Aisle of Doctor Morose," Charmaine gets a temp job as a security guard in a supermarket, and Shlomo, the Pickett family's double-ended dog, comes along as protection. Soon Shlomo's lost in the bowels of the store, and it's up to Brian and Terri Pickett to find him.
