Silent Night" deals with serious, gut-wrenching issues in a warm, light-hearted and sometimes humorous manner. Stone is neither super hero nor villain, he is you and me, with one great difference, he can't resist taking that "other" road that the rest of us skillfully avoid. Not since Goodman Ace created the original parade of characters for "Allen's Alley, " have we found such an exotic array of exotic, yet believable personalities as those who pass through Stone's inevitably exciting days and, sometimes, Silent Nights.
