It’s Christmas in July. This holiday used to be big in my family when I was younger. Every year my mom would let me and my younger sister pick out one gift worth $25. I remember picking out a baseball game for Sega Genesis. It was a pretty cool game. I loaded my team with superstar. At the All-Star break, Jeff Bagwell of the Philadelphia Phillies already had 50 home runs. He was well on his way to potentially reaching double digits, a record that would have blown away even the steroid numbers. I’m not sure why I stopped playing the game, but I did. The game was great too because they made a big deal whenever a record was set. I never got to see the celebration. I think life got in the way.
Since I have very few Christmas in July memories other than getting that one video game, here are all of the Held Back comics I have created so far that are somehow Christmas related. Yeah. This is one of those posts where I remind you that I’m doing something else and you act as if you care. You can view all of the comics by clicking here. I update every so often and don’t want to be a nag. Some of these are clever and well done while others are tragically sad and anticlimactic aka life real life.

I’m aware that The Shining isn’t a Christmas Movie. There’s still snow and I didn’t realize how few Christmas themed comics I have done. That’s it. Thank you. Stay cool. Enjoy your Christmas in July.
You, sir, are a little twisted. I kinda like it!
867-5309 right?
Thanks 😉
That’s the number for sure. Area codes are for losers.
I have a number you can call – 985 655 2500. Once you call this number, you will be willing to do whatever they say on the other end to be the most awesome snowbastard of all times.
I’m going to have to overcome my phone phobia to find out more information on this.
Let go your feelings. Flush the toilet of your mind
I am both worried about you and impressed by you at the same time.
What are you, my school psychologist?
No… I don’t even get paid for doing it.
