The Walking Dead: Fan Created Epic Negan Santa Mash-Up

While Negan may be a notorious villain, known to many fans as the killer of characters like Glenn, Abraham, and Olivia, the guy is seriously full of joy. It may seem crazy, but Negan is happy all of the time.

One might even say he's, jolly?

He may be evil, but the laughter and happiness exhibited by Negan on a weekly basis is oddly similar to the father of Christmas himself - Kris Kringle.

Santa Claus has been a staple of joy and happiness across the world for generations, but the same can't exactly be said for The Walking Dead's latest villain.

Reddit user Cmatthewman, however, thought that the two characters were more alike than not, and they created a fake billboard of the two characters.

The photo takes a look at the teaser billboard from the season 7 premiere, where Negan has all of the survivors lined up on their knees. Negan is standing in the forefront, with his back to the audience, and he is trying to decide who to kill.

In this photo, Negan is dressed like Santa Claus, but with Lucille still slung over his shoulder. The bat, however, is the only similarity in Negan's appearance to the original picture. Instead of his classic leather jacket and jeans, the character is donning the red suit, tall black boots, and bobbing red cap.

If only Negan brought toys, instead of broken skulls, kids might love him just a little bit more.
