I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NOTICED, ALBERT, BUT THAT WAS A PUNE, OR PLAY ON WORDS.

What's the original source? Can we replace this?

I mean the original source would be the Hogfather by Terry Pratchett. This comic is a rendition of a humorous interaction that goes down in the book.

In short, there's a plot to eliminate the Hogfather (Santa) by controlling children into not believing in him, so Death (the Grim Reaper) fills in for the Hogfather while others work to the plotters and save not just Hogswatch (Christmas) but also the entire disc (the world)

I meant the artist source. Since that just had some bs meme site watermark over where I'm assuming the og website would be.

Oh that's a very good question! I've seen the comic shared around the internet so much I don't know myself

It's that time of the year again. Must re-watch Futurama Xmas episodes. Hell, the whole show.
