About this listen

🎄🔪 In this episode, we’re reviewing Slay Bells, the brutal holiday one-shot by Zeb Wells from Bad Idea. What begins as a quiet Christmas Eve hunting tradition in a small Midwestern town turns into a nightmare when a single bad decision leads to the unthinkable — the killing of Santa’s reindeer. What follows is a savage, twisted holiday tale as Santa Claus himself comes to town, not to give gifts, but to deliver violent, magical punishment to everyone responsible.

We break down the story, tone, and shock factor, talk about Zeb Wells’ razor-sharp writing, and discuss why Slay Bells stands out as one of the darkest Christmas comics ever made.

👉 Join the conversation — is this the ultimate “naughty list” comic, or too far even for comedic holiday violence?
