The rundown, care of Comics Alliance.
From the piece describing the Lobo Paramilitary Christmas Special Issue...
Eventually, he makes it to Santa Himself, who -- just like in all the stories you heard growing up -- lives with a gorilla.
Santa challenges Lobo to a knife fight and -- this being a Lobo comic -- Lobo not only wins, but uses Santa's list, sleigh and reindeer to drop nuclear warheads on every child in the world. And then, in the framing sequence, a man kills his family with a shotgun. And then Lobo literally gives the reader the middle finger.
That One Guy With The Ponytail hailed it as "the best f---in' Christmas story, like, ever, man," just before he got a tattoo of barbed wire around his bicep.

Very impressive! A little disturbing, but very impressive. I think my favorite was the one where Santa has a Christmas-tree-shaped mind control hat. :P
