Pentatonix is an amazing group, elevating acapella from the novelty of Straight No Chaser (no stranger to Christmas themselves) and Rockapella. They’re kind of like a group of Bobby McFerrin. Most of their songs are covers, but sometimes they do come up with their own thing. From their latest Christmas album, here they are with an original song, “That’s Christmas To Me”.
Yesterday I missed that Dynamite labeled the comic “Classic Battlestar Galactica” because it’s not on the cover. I didn’t change yesterday’s article title but just noted the change in the actual review.

DC’s lawyers never learn. They want to sue over Valencia, a Spanish football team, over the bat symbol that is part of their team logo. The problem is they used it first! And they’re just following their namesake city. This is when sue happy makes you the stupid one.

Every year I try to post as many holiday-themed articles as I can during December leading up to a Christmas special Video Review and the next installment of Captain Yuletide. These last two are quite a bit of work, especially when you’re trying to find a job. So this when I turn to you guys for help. And I posted my Yule Log here and a link in the sidebar to get you in the spirit.
In the comments or via the contact page, if you guys come across any songs, sketches, websites, or something else I might want to show off (check the previous “Christmas Spotlight” entries for some idea what I like to look for), let me know and I’ll post it here with full credit. I’m also hoping to do another Christmas carol edition of “Sing Me A Story”, the only article series that I can find a Christmas entry for unless you guys know something I don’t. Any help you guys offer will make it easier for me to produce the big stuff this year so if you have it share it. If it fits the BW mold I’ll pop it up. Thanks and have a Merry Christmas.
There are a bunch of Battlestar Galactica comics I thought I already reviewed. The closer my collection gets to 2008 the more confused I get. So we’re going to take the next two weeks to clear up that oversight. I also updated the title later in the day to reflect the actual name in the production notes.
