Celebrate the winter solstice with Sabrina Spellman in this special holiday one-shot that returns to the acclaimed world of the Sabrina the Teenage Witch series! First, in "The Longest Night," at Sabrina's magic boarding school, she and her friends work together on the longest night of the year to save their friend enthralled by a dark and clever Beast, impossible to kill in his own world, and difficult to kill in our own. Then, in "A Very Spellman Solstice," a flash backstory shows young Zelda and Hilda breaking tradition to go to a school dance, but when Hilda joins forces with one of the ghosts of Solstice past, it curses their night out. more

It's an entirely serviceable holiday issue. As someone who's only recently gotten into reading Archie comics, the main story featuring Kelly Thompson and Veronica Fish was a standard 'capture the monster story' with the only relevance to the holiday is being it took place during the winter solstice. Fish's art is very much a highlight as the witches are a very beautiful and interestingly designed.
In fact everything in this holiday issue has nothing to do with Christmas. I mean, I get it, the character is a witch, but there's actually ZERO references to Christmastime, which I thought was odd for a holiday comic. Still it was overall a pretty good and a light fun read. I would rate this higher if it was more focus on Christmas. Con more+ Like • Comment
