In an enlightening interview, Ryan Haack, the creative force behind the BRIC-A-BRAC comic series, opens up about the latest installment of his Christmas-themed fantasy epic. Set on the war-torn Planet Christmas, the third issue, titled "The Wages of War," escalates the conflict with the introduction of the Solstice Eater, a pivotal new element that could change the course of the war.


Ryan discusses his unique fusion of festive elements with intense narrative conflicts, drawing inspiration from his love for Star Wars and classic Rankin-Bass holiday specials. The story’s hero, Garret, embarks on a quest to find Father Christmas, believed to be the key to ending the conflict, encountering iconic figures such as Good King Wenceslas and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future along the way.


BRIC-A-BRAC is more than just a comic; it's a rich narrative that challenges its characters to find hope and courage in dire times. Ryan’s passion for storytelling shines through as he details his creative process and his hopes for the impact of the series on both children and adults. This interview is a must-watch for fans of innovative comic book storytelling and anyone who cherishes a fresh take on the magic of the Christmas season.
