Bill and Ted remind us to be excellent to each other this Yuletide on the cover of Bill & Ted's Excellent Holiday Special #1 (2022) by Butch K. Mapa.

For each day of December until Christmas I'm featuring a Holiday-related comic book cover.

Come back tomorrow, and every day this month, for a new Christmas cover.

Just 10 more 'get-ups' until Santa!

Commentary:  

• The Far Side 2024 Off-the-Wall Calendar stays on the top of the chart for a third straight week.
• I didn't even notice that last week The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse was missing from the chart. Either Amazon briefly reclassified it (possible) or I messed up with the transcription and inadvertently left it off (more likely). In any event, it's back at #5 this week.
• Only one new item on the chart this week—the Kindle edition of a new issue of X-Men: Red—and it's way down at #46. Such is the nature of holiday shopping.
