Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for December 19, 2023

That would definitely freak me out. You too, I bet.

I like the solution in Tim Allen’s The Santa Clause where magic creates a chimney when needed.

Or just go with “Magic” again.

Maybe he has a magic tele-porter.

Santa carries a magic key that can open any door, but only on Christmas Eve.

Happy Hogswatch !

Both of our fireplaces are direct-venting gas. Can Santa unscrew the doors?

Santa magic. He brings it with him. My big sister said so.

That’s why I never do laundry.

Can you find the missing socks while you’re in there?

Clean the dryer vent and lint trap before Christmas. Dryer lint from his mustache gets into the eggnog.

The kid in panel 2 reminds me of Binkley from Bloom County

A man breaks into houses and leaves toys for children. Seems suspect to me.

Chim-Chimney, chim- chimney, chim-chim-cheree….

I liked to build Christmas Eve fires just to challenge the old guy. If he was using the dryer vent all that time, I’m very disappointed.

Hey, if Ant-Man can do it…
