Night Before 1
If you are a new reader, you might want to subscribe to “Holiday Wars” as well as start reading it from the beginning. Once you’re caught up on the main storyline then checkout the side stories in “Tales of Holiday’s Past.”
The time of the year… the name of the story… you guys MUST know what’s about to happen.
Epic poetry is definitely the way to go. Hey, it worked for Beowulf!
Are we in for a recap of the frankly disturbing opening comics? the Bunny torturing Santa? (please say no)
I wrote the poem (sort of) so it's not going to be THAT epic. Poetry is not my specialty… however the art will more than make-up for it.
Let's do it in Ye Olde Englishe!
Theare wunce was a buhnnye type shnoocke
Whut acktid juste like a grate croock.
He heired some cupides
Whych sadley were stupides
Whiel his egs and his turckeys were coocked.
Basically it's like that… minus the old English and set to a different rhyme.
Egads! Not ' The Night before Easter, or A Visit from the Easter Bunny'?
You got the right idea.
Oh this should be good.
One thing I haven't understood, is how the Bunny can torture santa and such if holidays are created by peoples perceptions, hence the change from pagan goddess to bunny.
This has probably been brought up and talked to death though.
I would surmise that since they are living beings, they still have will, and can choose good or evil no matter how much pressure our thoughts put on them.
There is a certain amount of free will. Part of Friday's mini-arc throughout this is to show that. Look at who he was at the start of this story and who he is now. It's very different because although perception has made him one thing he has the will to choose and try to be something different. It doesn't effect him physically but clearly there has been a personality shift.
As for The Bunny, there's a lot of politics and back story that go into his downfall that just haven't been touched upon here in Volume 1. We will see a ToHP story that shows a little more and then the prequel novel will really give us an insiders look to the world of Holidays before the war broke out.
