Comments:
This one is just for fun. Our superhero books fly off the shelves without any help from us. However, I got such a kick out of this one that I wanted to tell you about it.
Loki decides that he wants to be the King of Christmas. His Frost Giants tie up Santa and hide him in a secret room. Santa warns Loki that he won’t get away with it. Loki’s response: “You have eaten your last Christmas cookie, big boy.”
The Marvel Superhero Squad saves the day. Hurray!
