Tim Burton‘s The Nightmare Before Christmas

Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas (2024–present, Carlsen Comics [DE]) is a German comic-book adaptation of the beloved stop-motion film, launching with a single issue. This series retells Jack Skellington's discovery of Christmas Town and his well-meaning but chaotic attempt to take over the holiday, staying true to the original's darkly whimsical spirit. It matters as a fresh, authorized comic iteration for European readers, bringing the classic story to a new medium under the publisher's banner.
