    Top Cow has announced Greg Horn is lending his artistic talent to the upcoming Jingle Belle: Santa Claus vs. Frankenstein one-shot written by fan favorite Paul Dini.  If you are used to seeing Stephanie Gladden’s traditional interpretation of Belle, get ready for a bit of a head twist with Horn.

    Paul Dini’s JINBLE BELLE comes to Top Cow in a special “Halloween collides with Christmas” one-shot written by Dini and drawn by Stephanie Gladden (POWERPUFF GIRLS, CHOWDER, HOPSTER’S TRACKS). In years past, Santa has triumphed over a variety of enemies, including the Devil himself. Now, St. Nick gets ready to face his greatest challenge ever in JINGLE BELLE: SANTA CLAUS VS. FRANKENSTEIN!

    Inspired by Mary Shelley’s original novel (sort of), the story of Frankenstein’s monster takes a new twist when he is found by Jingle in the Arctic wastes and “rehabilitated” to fit in with the elves at Santa’s Workshop. All goes well until an ultra-PC city declares Santa Claus taboo and awakens Frankie’s monstrous side in a misguided attempt to help his friend. It’s up to an ailing Santa and a reluctant Jingle Belle to stop their monstrous “apprentice” before he destroys the town and ruins the reputation of Christmas forever!

      … well, I guess it’s nice that Greg Horn is getting to trace Playboy photoshoots for more than just Marvel, now.

      That’s actually a much better cover than what I was expecting. It looks like he actually attemped to draw the character he was hired to draw, instead of tracing over some supermodel.

      Is it just my imagination, or is she grabbing a cookie out of the jar using a Ditko finger pose? Homage or blatant rip-off? You decide! (Then again, it could just be a meaningless coincidence…)
