An official, Tim Burton-approved sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas, Zero's Journey is a manga released in 2018 by Tokyopop. It concluded in May 2020.The adventure continues as Jack, now having knowledge of other holidays outside his own, tries to create a portal that will allow immediate access to any holiday. While trying to get it to navigate, Jack takes a break to play fetch with Zero, but a mishap with the portal sends the ghost dog through the graveyard, into the forest, and hurtling straight into Christmas Town!After a town-wide search for the missing pup, Sally realizes where Zero has gone, and rushes back to town to inform Jack. Jack wants to go get Zero himself, but being the Pumpkin King, he is needed to attend a large Halloween planning meeting to ensure this year's Halloween goes smoothly. After a suggestion from the Mayor to send someone else to look for Zero, it comes to light that Jack isn't the only one who's been to Christmas Town: Lock, Shock, and Barrel have, as well.Promising to make it up to Jack after bringing Sandy Claws to Oogie in the original film, the trio head to Christmas Town to find Zero and bring him home. Fingers crossed for their success. |

Foreshadowing |
| | The Nightmare Before Christmas: Zero's Journey (Manga) / int_1484dba1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: In Issue 0, Jack and Zero are playing fetch, which is what leads Zero to Christmas Town to begin with. Mr. Myzer had a similar game of fetch that lead him to lose his puppy, One. In Issue 12, Zero gets Santa to come investigate the factory with yet another game of fetch. Zero even has a quick Flash Back to the first issue. In Issue 5, a few careless elves knock Shock over with their sled. In Issue 7, this same sort of careless driving with a sled leads to the death of One. In the same issue, a bit of mistletoe is subtly shown over Barrel's head before the waitress shows up a few pages later. In Issue 2, Zero is shown flying around around the top of a Christmas tree. In Issue 14, Santa offers to let him fly up and light the star on top. This leads to Clementine, the lead reindeer, accidentally setting the tree on fire as she takes the match from Zero. In Issue 5, Lock, Shock, and Barrel can't control their sled and end up crashing when they get to Christmas Town. Issue 18 shows they haven't learned their lesson when they steal one of Santa's spare sleds, try to make a getaway, and almost crash that one too. |

Royals Who Actually Do Something: Jack and Santa are both pretty hands-on when it comes to running their holidays. Jack is building a portal to connect all the holidays for this year's Halloween plans, and Santa is hard at work in the toy factory. He also personally handles Lock, Shock, and Barrel when he catches up to them. |

Hammerspace: Lock, Shock, and Barrel are shown to have only brought a sled to Christmas Town, but are later seen with sacks for their troublemaking. Fridge Brilliance might account for the fact that Santa uses sacks to deliver toys, except that Lock is seen with one to take candy long before they decide to rob the toy store. |

Not the Fall That Kills You…: Four times: Shock hijacks a sled and accidentally drives it off a cliff. A snowman cushions her fall. All three tricksters fall down a hole and after a quick splat upon landing, are otherwise safe and uninjured. Lock and Shock even want to do it again! The Creature Under the Stairs lands with a hard thud in the snow, with Igor landing similarly on top of him, and Batboy clinging to Igor's collar. Averted with Jack and Sally: Jack lands gracefully and catches Sally. Lock, Shock, and Barrel, again. They hijack a sled and trick Zero into pulling it since he can fly. The plan goes awry when they start to lose toys and try to catch them, which throws the sled off-balance, which in turn means Zero loses control, so they fall. Clementine leads the other reindeer to catch them. |

Say It with Hearts: Technically, Zero doesn't speak, but anytime he gives another character a lick, it's accompanied with a heart and indicates the tone of this trope. |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold |
| | The Nightmare Before Christmas: Zero's Journey (Manga) / int_4781adbb |
comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Mr. Myzer. Lock, Shock, and Barrel at times show shades of this, like when they finally find Zero and immediately hug/play with him, join in on the fun with the underground factory elves without causing trouble, and are just as horrified as the elves when they realize what the Factory Boss is capable of. Issue 12's teaser tagline for Issue 13 even alludes to this by asking, "Have Lock, Shock, and Barrel been more naughty than nice?" As promised, Issue 13 answers that question: they're neither. They actually don't understand what they're doing is wrong. They just do whatever they think is fun. |

Mr. Myzer and his gingerbread man, as well as Mr. Myzer and One count too. |

Let's Split Up, Gang!: Twice. The first time, Lock, Shock, and Barrel split up for separate adventures around Christmas Town. When they meet up again and rob the toy store, Shock suggests this as a tactical maneuver to evade the toy shop owner. It works, for the most part. |

Looks Like Cesare: Unsurprising for a comic based off a Tim Burton movie, but Mr. Myzer, with his dark brown hair, pale skin, black coat, and bags under his eyes, evokes this trope in a more light-hearted manner, given his status as a Christmas Town resident. |

Made of Iron: Lock, Shock, and Barrel. Must be a benefit of being a Halloween Town citizen. Their initial venture into Christmas Town has them crash their sled into a pine tree. None of them have an issue with the snow, despite their thin costumes. Extra points to Barrel for his bare feet. Lock climbs a Christmas tree to get a candy cane that is bigger than he is at the top of it, with expected results. He falls, it lands on him, and a second later, he's happily munching down on the pieces. Shock hijacks a sled and ends up driving it off a hill that leads into a ravine. She's easily over fifty feet in the air before a snowman cushions her fall. All three of them slide down a hole, crash through a door at the end, and land on hard ground. Barrel belly-flopped while Lock and Shock want to do it again. |

Continuity Nod: The citizens of Halloween Town still refer to Santa as "Sandy Claws," and this is further acknowledged by an elf named Jouelle. Jack goes to the spiral hill to lament a problem. Jack has learned his lesson about respecting other holiday traditions. Oogie Boogie has a tomb in the graveyard. In Issue 12, there's a panel with the teddy bear and the boat that replaced the vampire teddy and the bullet hole duck. There are a few flashbacks that directly reference scenes from the film. |

Oh, Crap!: Each of the trickster trio gets this look during their first round of mayhem in Christmas Town: Lock right before he gets pummeled by a giant candy cane. Shock when she realizes the brakes on the sled she hijacked don't work properly. Barrel right before he gets a smooch from a waitress. When the tricksters get caught stealing toys. The factory elves when the Factory Boss bursts in. Lock, Shock, and Barrel get this look right before they end up Mind Controlled with half of them. Zero gets it too when he realizes the tricksters are under the spell and nothing he does can wake them from it. |

comment |
Lock, Shock, and Barrel at times show shades of this, like when they finally find Zero and immediately hug/play with him, join in on the fun with the underground factory elves without causing trouble, and are just as horrified as the elves when they realize what the Factory Boss is capable of. Issue 12's teaser tagline for Issue 13 even alludes to this by asking, "Have Lock, Shock, and Barrel been more naughty than nice?" As promised, Issue 13 answers that question: they're neither. They actually don't understand what they're doing is wrong. They just do whatever they think is fun. |

Sweet Tooth: Not surprisingly, Lock, Shock, and Barrel all have this, with Lock taking the cake with his candy heist, the giant candy cane, and going straight for the donuts first at the Christmas Eve feast. Zero shows shades of it as well, as he's shown drinking eggnog and cider, getting into cake and cookies, and trying to get a nibble is what leads him to his unpleasant encounter with the gingerbread man. All of Christmas Town has this to some extent. There are several scenes of elves making and eating sweets. It's no surprise that the smell of cakes and pies are absolutely everywhere. |

Stronger Than They Look: Zero can pull a sled with a sack of toys and Lock, Shock, and Barrel by himself - in the air!. Lock, Shock, and Barrel count too. They pushed/pulled one of Santa's spare sleds away from the toy factory and up a hill by themselves before they reined Zero in to assist them. It's what Jack would have wanted. |

No Antagonist: The main drives of the plot are Zero getting lost in Christmas Town, and Lock, Shock, and Barrel being sent to find him. While the latter three certainly cause more than their fair share of trouble, they aren't malicious about it, and while some of the elves aren't the nicest characters, the comic takes place on Christmas Eve, the busiest night of the year. They're understandably upset at their lives being upheaved. |

| | The Nightmare Before Christmas: Zero's Journey (Manga) / int_e543a655 |
comment |
Light Is Not Good: The further we delve into Christmas Town, the more it contrasts Halloween Town's Dark Is Not Evil theme, from the aforementioned Kids Are Cruel, to Myzer's past, to Mind Controlling the factory elves to work faster. Even the citizens themselves contrast each other: a lot of Christmas Town's denizens seem bright and cheery on the outside, but many of them have dark pasts, are working unwillingly, or are just overall unpleasant. Most of Halloween Town's citizens look scary, but are actually very nice. |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The Lying Finger Cross is pretty much Lock, Shock, and Barrel's trademark gesture, so it's telling that they don't do this when they tell Santa they're not naughty, they just like to have fun. |

Anti-Climax: Jack and his Rag Tag Bunch Of Misfits have just entered Christmas Town as the toy factory goes up in flames, and Lock, Shock and Barrel stole one of Santa's spare sleighs to get some loot. You were probably expecting something a bit more exciting than Jack and Co. getting there just as the fire gets under control. Jack simply asks Santa if he's seen Zero, which he has, and at that moment, Lock, Shock, and Barrel lose control of their sled. Clementine and the reindeer catch Lock, Shock, and Barrel and assist Zero. The trickster trio doesn't even get so much as a lecture for taking the sleigh to begin with, and Zero is cheered on in both towns as he partners with Clementine to lead Santa's reindeer. |

Easily Forgiven: After kidnapping Santa, chasing him around the toy factory, getting him caught in the present-wrapping machine, and causing mayhem all throughout Christmas Town, Santa forgives Lock, Shock, and Barrel. It helps that they didn't actually understand what they were doing was "naughty"; in their eyes, they were just having fun. In Issues 18, Zero works with Clementine to douse the fire and befriends her, despite her causing the fire to begin with out of jealousy. |
