Next time on “Rise of the Guardians”…

Oh boy!

Which one is the turkey now?

The Secret Guardians! Sweet!

It’s looking bad for Krampus.

So the Christmastide was summoning reinforcements? That’s pretty smart.

And suddenly its a Tim Allen Santa story

Cupid scares me a little.

What’s this? The Holiday Avengers?

Awwwww …. the Nestle Quik bunny. I’ll take a tall cool banana bunny milk!

and is that “Diaper Man” from the “Mighty Heroes” ……..cool! Retro pile on!

Yay!

I always thought the Tooth Fairy would be more feminine.

and… looks like Krampus is being ganged up on. :j

The icy battlefield erupted with chaos as the clash between Kris Kringle and Krampus reached its crescendo. Snow swirled violently in the frosty air, the force of their confrontation sending shockwaves through the North Pole. Krampus, fueled by years of resentment, stood poised to strike the final blow.

“On your left!”

The ground trembled, and out of the blinding snowstorm stepped a figure gleaming with golden light. Towering and confident, the Tooth Fairy arrived, his muscular frame emanating a force of kindness, protection, and strength. “Hey, Claus,” he said with a warm smile, “Tooth Fairy, at your service.”

But the surprise didn’t end there. Emerging from the shadows came a strange and eclectic group of beings, each radiating their own unique magic. A tall figure with a carved pumpkin for a head bowed slightly, his voice calm yet eerie, “And he’s not alone.” A flutter of wings heralded the arrival of a tiny pink fairy wielding a wand, and beside her, a white rabbit stepped forward, his green eyes sharp with determination.

Kris, bruised but resolute, stood straighter, hope rekindling in his heart. “You came,” he said, his voice thick with emotion.

The Tooth Fairy nodded. “You didn’t think you were the only one who believes in humanity, did you? The world may be broken, but we all have a role to play in keeping its magic alive.”

Krampus let out a guttural snarl, his shadows twisting and writhing around him. “You think this changes anything? You think your fractured hope can stop what I’ve begun?”

The Pumpkin King spoke, his tone as steady as the falling snow. “It’s not about stopping you, Krampus. It’s about reminding the world that darkness only wins when we stand alone.”

Together, the guardians of light formed a line beside Kris Kringle. For the first time in ages, the tide of battle shifted. It wasn’t just about Kris versus Krampus anymore. It was about the enduring fight for hope, unity, and the light that lives in every heart.

wheres the arbor day tree monster ?

You do realize this storyline should have begun a couple of days earlier? The boys have missed Christmas Day at home!

This is now just like the movie Santa Claus 3.

I wonder how Miles and Kevin are reacting to this?

A Capt. America reference!!

Not surprisingly, the tooth fairy has gorgeous teeth.

Yes! Valentine’s Day, Easter and Halloween are never far behind!!

I did not see THAT coming. I should have stayed up for the tooth fairy when my kids were little!

The real superheroes

Wow. The Tooth Fairy is not at all what I was expecting. I wonder if he does, um, escort service as well as putting money under kids’ pillows.

I rather like the look of that Tooth Fairy.

May I just say I LOOOVE that Tooth Fairy!! And the rest as well.

This arc is getting dumber & dumber. I’m out until it’s over.

Wow. This whole arc has been so stinking cool! Yea!

YAAAAAY!!

Now that I see Cupid, my love life makes a lot more sense. I will get even with you Cupid!

Tooth Fairy. The macho version.

Cupid looks very determined…and a little older than I expected.
