The following pictures and stories belong to Delcourt Jeunesse Editions and Namco Bandai.

I have no rights over anything but the translations and the summaries.

The first volume of the comics, titled "Buffet à volonté" - which by the way is literally the french title of the episode "All you can eat", don't ask me why they did this - has ten short stories. I will show and summaries them in their order of appearance. "Secret agents" So we first see President Spheros in his office, using a blaster against ghosts.

Yup, he can use these. And he does so very calmly. Then the communicator on his desk rings.

So yeah, he already knew, slow-pokes ! (Also, I'm pretty sure he should have been saying what came out of the communicator... but whatever...) "In a hurry" The ghost gang is just in front of a cell where Pac, Cylindria and Spiral are locked in. Clyde is searching for the key he had put away inside... Himself ??? Yeah, speaking of "All you can eat" at the beginning, do you remember when in that episode he pulled out of his mouth a bunch of condiments and spices ? It's pretty much the same idea here... So while he struggles to get the key, and getting out anything else BUT the key, the Pac-worlders are just playing cards... Then finally !

That would be a great idea, Pinky. "Freezing ambiance" Winter is here and our three Pac-worlders took their scarves and woolly hats to go outside. This didn't prevent Pac from getting a cold, however. So he takes a power-berry, thinking this would help him get a little better. But then, he needs to sneeze, and his friends panic as they tell him not to as they noticed what power-berry he picked. They even try to run away, but here goes the sneeze !

Why did they run away JUST IN FRONT OF PAC ?! "Pool" With this one I'll just show everything.

First, dubious cartoon logic with Cyli wearing a bathrobe, and second...

PacMan-ception. "Appointment" Pacster is lost in the maze. He stumbles on signs telling him he's on the wrong path, and a few ghosts are also roaming around. Apparently he is late for something.

We do agree that this scenario would never have happened in the show, right ? "Shoping or not shopping ?" I didn't even have to translate this title. So, Cylindria is trying out a jean in a ready-to-wear fashion store, and complains about the fact it feels too tight, yet it's supposed to be her size. Pac tries to comfort her, but she won't listen and just gives up.

I know right, Cyli ! I thought you were a smart girl ! "New cuisine" I'll leave this one as it is, because...

Because what the actual freak ?! (Even the Amino, when I posted these overthere, agreed ! It had tagged this image as "IMG=AAH " ! XD ) "Trash collecting" Our friends are fighting ghosts. Firing their blasters and chomping away ! Then :

I knew that they had to empty their blasters at some point, but I wasn't picturing it like that... "The challenge" Pacster and Cylindria are in a hurry because they've learned that Spiral was up against a cyclops ghost, on his own ! So they rush to help him.

I really like the look the cyclops is giving to Spiral, there. "Watchdog" Here is the last one. Full.

Even Buttler's patience has its limits...
