Just in time for the winter solstice, we simply couldn’t end Helena Wayne’s 40th

Just in time for the winter solstice, we simply couldn’t end Helena Wayne’s 40th anniversary celebration without discussing my favourite DC Comics holiday story of all time: the Huntress and Batman story featured in The Brave and the Bold #184 titled “The Batman’s Last Christmas.” Now, judging by the cover, it doesn’t look like Batman is having a holly jolly Christmas and the Huntress looks very concerned for him. But despite appearances, it is not really a story centred on manpain or Bruce Wayne’s usual brooding. Quite the opposite! It is instead a story about rediscovering the meaning of love, family, and friendship! Let’s get right to it.
