This may be one of the most unhinged comics I've done in a while! I'm probably just overtaken by the joy of the Mage Season!

DC Minis #13 - M.A.G.E. Day - Dresden Codak

From me to you: have an arcane and inscrutable Mage Day, and may the Gift Wizard accurately assign a material value to your character! New to Dresden Codak? These mini-comics alternate with my MEGA-COMICS! The current storyline is Dark Science and you can catch up right here.

I don't think I remember anything about a MAGE Day previously. Did it come up in any previous comics?

Torabi

Aww, bless your generosity and poor judge of character indeed! We don't deserve the sheer amount of joy you provide! You are absolutely obligated to take a break over the holidays to correct the balance!

Alex White

This is truly wonderful, and I hope you have a lovely regular human break.

Just retcon it in, works for me

Not pictured: the team who had to hose the artist down with ice water after drawing the "gift-wrapped Kim" panel :)

If that's unhinged, then build me a sliding door, 'cause I'm never using hinges again!

Also, I love the different "sparkle" effects coming off each gift!

Merry Holidays to you too, Sen!

The use of the word “mage” brings to mind Matt Wagner’s “Mage” comics from long ago and far away. If you’ve not read them, I do recommend them. I read ‘em when I was 17ish, and at the time, I’d never read a story quite like it, or seen art in a comic quite like it.

Y'know I never read them but I remember as a Keke kid seeing those covers at the comic book store and trying to figure out how the guy must be connected to Captain Marvel

Hugh Eckert

I second this. They are amazing.

Oh PSA: if everyone behaves themselves, next year I'll release a full House Wizards calendar, because I want to

Happy seasonal holidays! As far as Ling's gift goes... she's been good, why not both?

Maryalee

Blessed Yule. Enjoy, do not overwork!

Fan Service: The gift that keeps on giving! Seriously, gift-wrapped Kim is the only thing I need this MAGE day! Also, fun fact, the Department of Entertainment Censorship (originally: the Entertainment Suppression Ratings Board) collectively Imploded when the Night Puncher III Pervert Edition was launched, and game developers overnight pivoted in an attempt to replicate its success. The only genre that managed to meet, and then surpass it, was the raft of Lesbian Tournament Fighters.

Neat, all of it. We're clearly going to need a solstice appreciation comic too.

Sean Kelly

...and you had better enjoy your gift *whacks blahaj meaningfully against palm* These are brilliant. Keep it up. ... AFTER the holidays.

Noah

@Senna hee. I went and priced the Starblaze TPBs on eBay (3 volumes) and, it being the season, kicked a few bucks in your direction which should more or less cover the cost, assuming you’re interested and don’t have access to them another way (eg comixology had them). Either way, happy . :)

Noah

Hey, neat. Patreon stripped out my brackets. “Happy INSERT_HOLIDAY_HERE”. :)

William Cole

I promise I'll be extra-good, Sen-ta Claus!
