Main comic: A single panel showing the Grinch, drawn with green flame-like features and dressed in a red-and-white Santa suit, standing against a dark snowy night scene with evergreen trees. A large thought/song bubble above him reads: "They're singing! They're singing! They're actually singing! Their carolers still caroling! Their sleigh bells still ringing! They're dancing a dance! They're singin a song! Could it be I've misjudged Christmas' love all along?" A small inset circle shows tiny carolers singing. Below the panel, a caption reads: "The Grinch was, however, still refusing to give back either Thanksgiving or Easter." The joke: even after his Christmas change of heart, the Grinch remains selfish about other holidays. Votey (aftercomic): A black-and-white close-up sketch of the Grinch's grumpy face in his Santa hat, saying, "I only feel empathy after failure!"
