After a late evening picking up an extra shift at the group home I ran by the comic store to exchange Shakespeare DVD’s with Jeff and talk comics. He generously took me out for breakfast at IHOP and I went willingly despite my professed snobbishness towards 24 hour pancake/waffle emporiums. I can always go for a good fried egg! I picked up pancakes for the girls at their request. In line Jeff said “Pamcakes”, we both giggled, and I leave this for you to enjoy and as a ‘thank you’ to Jeff for breakfast. This is one of my favorite Hellboy stories and it showcases Mignola’s bizarre sense of humor.
Thanks!
It’s breakfast time here, I’m ravenous and pining for pancakes now…
That’s just so weird. You’re up for breakfast and I’m getting ready to go to bed, albeit quite late! The simplest things sometimes fascinate me!
I woke up at 3:00am and couldn’t go back to sleep.
You could’ve called since I was still up, obviously!
mmmmmmm,,,,IHOP!
The girls just ate their pancakes…I can’t stand them anyway and can’t imagine anything worse then reheated pamcakes, but then again I’m preaching to the wrong crowd as you’re all undoubtedly pancake lovers.
Doesn’t sound that great to me either.
Dad and I love Ihop!! The stuffed french toast is yummy!! Does This mean we can go eat ther some time when we are visiting KC? Yummm!!!! Dad is a breakfast nut anyway.
I suppose! š
It was fun, man! There’s always room for pancakes. š I just love breakfast food anytime of day.
not much is better than chocolate pamcakes from the Original Pancake House!
that’s a great sketch, even if i don’t have much context for Hellboy (i can gather the basics though…)
ah, the evil-fighting nature of pancakes.
Since I hate pancakes I find it that much more funny that Hellboy’s ingestion of the dreaded “pamcake” sets the minions of Hell to moaning and wailing! It in indeed a weapon of utter doom!!!
I’m not a huge pancake fan. I’ll eat them at home but if I’m going to IHOP it’s omlet all the way!
I had the Big Steak Omelet, or something like that, a month ago with Mary….that was pretty good…way too much to eat in just one sitting plus they give you pancakes with it!
