-In 2024 and 2025 there were no Christmas comics between 23-26/12. In 2024 that was the first time since the first Christmas comic was released in 2006. So it could have been 20 years in a row, but the streak failed after 19 years. In 2024 it became the tenth time the 25th fell on a release day, and all previous 25th releases have been about Christmas. So that streak of Christmas Comics released on the 25th also ended on nine not reaching ten. And the lack of Christimas comic extended for another year when also 2025 was without any comics in the Christmas time.
