Christmas Countdown: 5


Notice, in the panel 3, all the lines behind him were drawn sideways, not crooked like the darkness in panels 1 and 2. I did that to make it look more "speedy." In the original sketch, Moe actually saw a Rudolph, but Santa didn't say it, so Moe "said 'On, Rudolph!' for him," as he told me later. But that didn't stop me from changing the strip. When I told Moe, he was furious. He tried to make me change it back, but I resisted. Finally, sometime after that, he agreed.
