2020 Holiday Gift Exchange Sign-Up | CBCS Comics

OK, everyone, looks like it's done!

47 Santas delivered to 46 lucky forum members (and spouses, and children, and house pets).

With one, unfortunately, still unconfirmed.

I want to stop here and point out that I've had (I think) SIX different forum members reach out to me today offering to send a gift to the forum member that was ghosted by Santa! Which, I think, more than anything else shows what an AWESOME community of people we have on here, making sure no one ended up with less than a lump of coal!!!

The gifts we've seen have been great, and it's obvious everyone put a lot of thought into what to send. I've loved seeing all the gifts posted, and I hope we get to see the rest soon!

It's been so much fun running this! Thanks so much to everyone who took part!

Can't wait for next year!!!

There is a Japanese Manga book which looks pretty interesting. It will be my first so I am very happy Rafel told me how to read it or I would have been REAL confused! Thank you so much Rafel, and thank you to everyone else just for being such a great community. High fives all around. Hello All, I need to make a correction about this post. The gifter of this fine gift of books was actually my original Secret Santa who has been revealed to me as Dielinfinite. The amount of embarrassment I feel for getting the original post wrong can not be overstated. I apologize to my secret Santa for not giving him the proper credit for such a great gift. A big holiday thank you to dielinfinite for the kind gift. I have already read the John Carpenter book and thought it was a fun read. All the best to you this new year. I look forward to a great year of comic discussion here on the forum and with a little bit of magic (blessings / luck / science / whatever you want to call it) hopefully hellos at Cons.

	All respect to @CatCovers for doing the heavy lifting on this fun and uplifting endeavor! What welcome and wonderful comradeship at time of stress in the world. (Too much alliteration, gotta stop reading all that Stan Lee.) A joy to be a part of this group. Thanks again, and ALL HAIL CATCOVERS!

	@SpiderTim You’re very welcome my friend! After receiving your generous gift this past holiday season this was the least I could do as a thank you gesture. My only hope was that I could’ve found a few more to include, but I’m still on the hunt & always keeping an eye out for more! I’m also very grateful & thankful to the various teams at my lcs’s who helped me track these down, because without them this wouldn’t have been possible. Again I thank you for your gift as well, and I’m always more than happy to help a fellow ASM collector with their run. Please stay safe, be well & take care my man!

	@Noblebeast315 "I look forward to a great year of comic discussion here on the forum and with a little bit of magic (blessings / luck / science / whatever you want to call it) hopefully hellos at Cons". I was thinking it might be cool if there was a CBCS pin we could purchase with the Logo and maybe the word "Forum" underneath. we could wear it at cons to identify ourselves & maybe meet each other?

	@Noblebeast315 lol, I tried to keep the secret in Secret Santa but I’m glad you’re liking the gift so far. I read the preview of the first two or three chapters of the manga but I thought it was creepy and liked what it was doing with the premise
