According to Marvel, Ghost Rider X-Mas Special Infinite Comic #1 revolves around the story of Robbie Reyes’ little brother Gabe being bullied at school, for having too much ‘Christmas spirit.’ The other kids are less than excited about Santa Claus’ impending visit, making them ‘the perfect victims for the evil KRAMPUS!’
