"Grant Morrison&amp;#039;s Happy! has been given a variant cover design by Mike Allred ahead of the title&amp;#039;s launch this week. Announced at the Image Expo in February, the miniseries is an alternative Christmas story following the exploits of a drunk hitman who finds redemption in the form of a tiny, blue feathered pony named Happy.  &amp;quot;Happy! is a story I&amp;#039;ve wanted to write since hitman Nick Sax and his &amp;#039;partner&amp;#039; Happy the Horse appeared fully formed in my head two years ago,&amp;quot; Morrison told Newsarama. &amp;quot;I wanted to do a classic Christmas story - like A Christmas Carol or It&amp;#039;s A Wonderful Life - but with all the junkies, killers and paedophiles which make our modern world so colourful.&amp;quot;  The Boys artist Darick Robertson provided artwork for Happy!, which is published by Image Comics. Happy! #1 arrives in stores on September 26. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
