Spawn #39 (1995) (Mid Grade)

Financial woes force single mother Phyllis to work on Christmas Eve. Her daughter Nadine sneaks out, leaving little Greggy alone to await Santa. Spawn, scuffling on the roof with robbers, sounds like Santa to Greggy, then a thug drops a fat wad of cash on the fire escape. The windfall allows the family to forget about day to day worries and appreciate their many blessings.
