I feel like the current image relies too much on the caption. Although Jack doesn't look like he's acting hostile, he still looks like he could be a typical Bad Santa. Or not. It's hard to tell what's going on without context.

I'd like to suggest this two-panel as a replacement:

The current is definitely JAFAAC...the suggestion's an improvement, but how much of one I'm not certain.

Was he trying to make a paper snowflake? I'm not familiar with Christmas customs.

How does it illustrate the trope?

Regarding the current. I didn't see The Nightmare Before Christmas, but was there a reaction shot with the kid running away scared from him? It could work if we add it.

Second and third (or second, if the "celebrating it so ardently that it backfires" part isn't necessary in an image) panels of this?

[up] I think the third panel could work on its own.

The third panel alone would give too much focus to the character who is not the anti-grinch.

I'm good with the second and third panels of 6.

Not a big fan, it may just be the male character himself hates Christmas. This trope needs a kick-ass image which I am willing to wait out on.

Would 1.1 work for Funny.The Nightmare Before Christmas (which doesn't have an image)? Maybe just the second panel? The scene it shows is the first entry described on the page.
