Artist's Comments

Earlyer this year I drew Pac-Man plus his famliy, friends and foes for his 25th anniversary here's the name and info on both Pac-Man and his cast membersstarting from Left to Right,

Pal (from Pac & Pal): a friendly little monster girl who tries to help Pac Mac man collect his stuff from the other monsters, and does a bad job at it.

Professor Pac-man: Claims to be smart, yet he starred in one of the worst videogame flops of mankind. What kind of professor is he?

Super Pac-man: Looks exactly like Pac-man, except he flies, and has special powers enabling him to eat fruit and doors located several miles below him. Sometimes he even wears an incredibly dum cape and mask. A lot of people beleive he and Pac-man are one in the same. Other idiots, including the Hanna-Barbera animation team, do not.

Baby Pac-man: She was brought to the couple by the stork, which helped them get around the problem of their complete abscence of sex organs. Despite being a toddler, Baby had to navigate through both video AND pinball playfields to escape the ghosts. Life ain't fair sometimes...

Ms. Pac-man: She's also known as Pepper by those who actually remember the Hanna-Barbera cartoon. Despite her being reduced to the housewife role in the end, Ms. Pac could be considered an ideal feminist. Pac starred in about 20 different games, and Ms. Pac starred in only one (soon to be two), which happened to be more successful than every single game Pac has starred in so far. How's that for girl power?

Pac-man: He comes in many forms. In his original form, he's a little flat yellow disk that eats everything. In games like Pacmania and Arrangement, he's a yellow SPHERE that eats everything. In other cases he grows arms and legs and runs around, doing everything from skateboarding to rescuing princesses to raising a family, either on his own or with the help of a magical cursor. And in yet another case, he's a scary yellow alien thing with two legs and blood-red saucer eyes, capable of giving kids nightmares (really, what WAS that artist at Midway thinking). In any case, we love him. Actually, I think it's pretty much the first two cases where we love him; in all the others, he's pretty damned crazy.

Jr. Pac-man: The delinquent child of the Pac family who ran off with one of the ghosts and was never heard from again. Nowadays when he is brought up, Pac insists that he was never his son.

Oikake (aka Akabei, Shadow, Inky, and Urchin.) : He's fast, agressive, and he has the smarts, making him the worst enemy Pac has ever had. Yes, including the ghost witch.

Kimagure (aka Pinky, Speedy, and Romp).: He's slower than Oikake, but he's nicknamed Speedy anyway. No one said monsters (or the people at Midway) were very bright.

Sue: A female monster who started out orange, then dyed herself purple so no one would confuse her with that dink Clyde.

Machibuse (aka Aosuke, Bashful, Blinky, and Stylist.): He likes to try to trap Pac-man from the other end of the tunnel, supposedly. He appears cockeyed in Pacmania, either because he was sufferering from brain damage at the time, or because Namco just wanted to go with the portrayal he had in the H-B cartoon, for some dumbass reason.

Otoboke: also known as Guzuta, Pokey, Clyde, and Crybaby. He is one confused monster.

Common (aka The Jumping Moster): Common will always remain the most loved character in Pac history. Wait a minute... no he won't. He only shown up one time in Pac-Mania and never to be heard again.
