I like how between all the heavy political stuff there's still the expected Christmas origin plot points, it makes them feel more significant with how the narrative doesn't immediately telegraph it from the start. Also odd question, have you ever watched Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Rankin Bass? There's an element of rebellion with Santa in that as well, though it doesn't really delve into it the way you have.

Thanks! I’m glad you like it. I’m trying to give a broad view of the events without necessarily honing in on any one character. I’m not sure how successful I’m being, but that was the intention. Certain characters get more air time and some are used to give insight into the experiences of the masses. Still, I was trying not to create a singular hero.

Yes, I have seen Santa Clause is coming to town. In fact the Postmaster Master was given that title with the Burgermeister Meisterburger in mind. It is cool you made that connection.
