BATMAN: The Search for Santa Claus! || Comic Misconceptions || NerdSync

In the spirit of the holiday season, let's hear a tale about three Christmas parties, three bitter old men, and one sinister plot of MURDER! That's right, just like last year Scott is walking you through a classic Christmas comic book tale of Batman and Robin. This year, it comes from Batman #33 from 1946 in a story called "The Search for Santa Claus!"

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you who watched NerdSync in 2014 (and all you time travelers who are watching it in the future). We can't wait until you see what we have in store for 2015!

Every Wednesday, Comic Misconceptions explores fascinating trivia, crazy stories, and mind-blowing theories about the comic book universe from Marvel, DC, and beyond!

There's always that classic Batman Christmas story where the Dark Knight struggles with body odor issues, Robin showed that he is somehow a monotreme (egg-laying mammal, ) the Batmobile had tire trouble, and the Joker escaped. :P

I feel really bad for Robin in this comic, he has to wear short shorts on a snowy day, brr.

[harsh]

Jingle Bells, Batman smells
Robin laid an egg.
The Batmobile lost a wheel
and the Joker got away (Hey!)

Batman Noel has got to be my favorite. Its basically a re-telling of A Christmas Carol but with batman as Scrooge. The artwork is absolutely beautiful.

I like how Robin still hasn't put on pants yet. It's snowing for goodness sake! Don't you have common sense?

[NerdSyncProductions]

Guys, seriously. I LOVE all the GIFs you're making!!! Keep it up! Haha

I really like the "DCU HOLIDAY BASH 2" (1998), I REALLY LOVE how Santa goes up to Darkseid and gives him a chunk of coal and runs away. I also really like “DC Infinite Holiday Special” (2007) because BATMAN becomes SANTA. BAT-SANTA!

My favorite comic book Christmas story is a flash comic where Jay Garrick and Wally West are just running around the central city doing as much good as they can on Christmas Eve.

Batman Noel and the Harley Quinn Christmas Special are my favs but another good one is the Orange Lantern Christmas Spectacular

[harrywompa]

not a comic book, but the comfort and joy episode from Justice League season 2. Its a nice overview of everyone's Christmas, and lots of feels.
I for one like the bat christmas tradition, I'm already looking forward to next year's!

Not a Comicbook but I love The Batman the animated series episode
Christmas with The Joker

[TheJaredtheJaredlong]

That's the most actiony and twisty christmas story I've ever heard. Definitely going to have to remember to tell my future kids this each holiday. 

[pwjhubers]

That's the most Christmas I've ever seen in a sweater. Great video. Merry Christmas!

[TinFilmsD]

This needs to be the plot of the next Batman movie. It's so good!

[TheGargoyleDude]

The time when Plastic Man told his nepew/cousin/whatever how the JL saved Christmas.

[SCUBOwl]

I really like the one where Deadpool is hired to infiltrate the North Pole and put his client on the Nice List.

[sleeplessdoe]

Isn't Robin cold without tights in the middle of winter?

[lewaproductions]

The Larfleez christmas special by far is my favorite

[Impact_Player]

Superman Saves Santa. Don't even know if thats a thing, but it sounds like a thing so thats my answer.
