Nightmare Before Christmas: Zero’s Journey by D.J. Milky, Illustrated by Studio Dice was a cute teaser into the 20-issue series that will be out soon.
I’m so excited to hear that they will be compiled into four graphic novels and one massive collectors edition manga. We all know I’m going to need that for my shelves!

My thoughts:
Well, there really wasn’t much to this one…
**SPOILERS BELOW**
Jack has clearly learned nothing, and while mulling over his next scheme, he throws a stick and Zero chases after it. In a poorly timed accident, a button is pressed and Zero ends up heading to Christmas Town.
**END OF SPOILERS**
Like I said in my intro, it’s a nice teaser into the upcoming story, but it left me feeling just a little underwhelmed. Especially after how long I was itching to get my hands on a copy. I will say that I enjoyed the artwork though!
Of course I am still very excited to read the full length one when it comes out! I wonder if it will also be in color, or if it will go back to the black and white style of Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas by Jun Asuka, but fingers crossed the storyline is stronger in this one… And that they edit, the typo in the Mayors blurb was a little off-putting.
Shout-out again to Heather of Heather’s Reading Hideaway for snagging me a copy of this on Free Comic Book Day!
Thanks for reading!

I loved The Nightmare Before Christmas so definitely going to get this (even if it is a bit underwhelming!)

It's definitely a great thing to have for any Nightmare fan! I'm still holding on to my copy of the manga by Jun Askua even though I didn't love it 🙂
Ooh fun! Sorry it was a bit underwhelming, but hopefully it will just get better. I love NBC.

Yeah, fingers crossed!! I think it definitely has the potential! 🙂
I feel like I am the one and only person who has never seen The Nightmare Before Christmas. Maybe one day…
Ah! It's my FAVORITE! But I can see why some people don't care for it 🙂
That looks like so much fun. Glad you were able to get a copy!
😀
The art looks awesome!
It's so cute!! I love it! 🙂
This looks so cute! So this new 20-issue thing, is it going to be a new story in the Nightmare world? Or will it be like the Jun Asuka one in that it just retells the movie? I love this movie, so I'm curious now!
It'll be a new story based on Zero's adventures 🙂 I can't wait!
I'll have to look this up for sure! I love that movie!
😀
I don’t think I have actually seen the movie in its entirety 🙈 or at least I don’t remember- I need to change that.
Definitely! I hope you love it! 🙂
