Funny / The Nightmare Before Christmas: Zero's Journey

Go To

  • Pretty much anything Lock, Shock, and Barrel do, including:
    • Crashing their sled when they first enter Christmas Town because they've never driven one before.
    • Lock climbing a Christmas tree to get a candy cane that is bigger than he is, with expected results.
    • Some elves knock Shock over with their sled. She then proceeds to hijack it from them and drive it off a cliff.
    • Barrel goes into a restaurant and actually doesn't do anything except sit down and look at the menu. He also doesn't notice the mistletoe, or the waitress's interest in him until it's too late.
      • The "Nope!" face he makes immediately after.
      • A lot of the trio's expressions in-general, particularly of the Oh, Crap! variety.
    • When they meet up after their first round of trouble:
      *Lock and Shock notice the lipstick on Barrel's face*
      Barrel: What...?
      Shock: AHAHAHAHAHHA!
      Lock: What happened to you?!
      Barrel: Nothing.
      Shock: Looks like someone had fun!
    • Start a game of football while running from an angry mob.
      • Nearly getting away from said mob scott-free...only to fall into a hole.
      • Their terror at falling all the way down said hole...and then they to want to do it all over again!
    • When they awaken from the Mind Control after Santa sees them in his workshop and declares there'll be no toys for them because they're on the naughty list, their reaction is excited expressions, and an exclamation of, "TOYS?"
    • They chase Santa Claus into a present-wrapping machine, with expected results.
  • Barrel has a minor Running Gag where trouble finds him first. Aside from the waitress, he runs into the middle of a soccer game while fleeing and trips over the ball before he Face Plants into the snow, barely stops himself from falling into a hole, and is then knocked into it by Lock and Shock. He is also the only one to land painfully.
  • In Issue 15, the Creature Under the Stairs doesn't fit through the Christmas door. Jack, Sally, Igor, and Batboy all have to shove him inside.
    Sally: Will he fit?
    Jack: We can only try.
