Pajama Man comic

Was there a physical pajama man comic book that came with Pajama Sam 2? I remember hearing there wasone, but a web search turned up nothing. I am aware of the "Milk Molecule Mayhem" issue released with Pajama Sam 3.

Yep, there was one. I don't remember much about it, but it had the Earth Quaker teaming up with villainous versions of Thunder and Lightning, as well as Dust Devil.

There were EVIL versions of Thunder and Lightning?!?! They must've taken a level in badass! Speaking of Thunder and Lightning, they remind me of either Return and Enter from LEGO Island, or Rosie and Jim.

The comic attached to Pajama Sam 2 sets up the scenario that the game opens with. At the grand opening of the Pajama Man museum, pointing out several old gadgets and artifacts referencing past issues (which gave me the false hope other issues actually existed), the Foul Weathermen attack and go after the Cosmic Eraser - a top secret doomsday weapon of sorts.

As for the one attached to PJ3, it explains the origin of the league's milkman (his alias slips my mind at the moment), which involved aliens abducting his cows...or something. Don't remember that one very well. What I do remember is that mutated milk particles start eating away at his body, so Pajama Man is shrunk down to go inside the body and vaporize the little monsters. Then he has to get back out in the little time left before he returns to full size.

I'll post some scans next week if I can find them.

I would love to see those, thank you.

Right now I only have time to scan the covers, but I promise I'll get around to the pages within the next couple of days.





I'm afraid the years have NOT been good to that first one, as you can see....

DANG those scans are nice! Thanks for that!

Whoa, awesome! I'm definitely interested in seeing these comics again—I used to have them myself, but I think they got ruined and thrown out.

I want Pajama Man to sign my BEST comicbook! My rare first issue of Pajama Man, which is... not here? OH NO! MY FAVOURITE COMICBOOKS IS MISSING!

Welp, I got the first one uploaded. Have at it: https://2img.net/r/ihimg/g/254/pj2comic.jpg/

Wow, this is amazing. I can't believe somebody actually still has these comics, they're brilliant. It was actually pretty enjoyable reading it. I love how that comic nicely ties into the intro of the second game. In fact, it kinda sucks few people have read this comic, because now the intro makes perfect sense!

Yeah, I know. Ever since I first read it I've had context and appreciated the opening movie, but...thinking way back to before I read it, it didn't make any sense. I couldn't even comprehend half of what they were saying....

It also explains why Sam thought Thunder and Lightning were sinister villains prior to meeting them. I'm thankful you guys have given me a reason to scan these comics, because this way they're digitally preserved in case I myself ever lose them.

If the PJ3 comic isn't up tomorrow night, it'll definitely be the following night.

I know that my copies of these are somewhere in my house, though scanning them would be pointless for me to do since I know for a fact I scribbled all over them. XD

Really great to see this again! Some of my observations:

• Huh, so "Don't Rain On My Parade" is the real title and "The Forecast Calls For Thunder & Lightning!" is just a tagline. I'm guessing that "The Milkman Always Burps Twice" is the real title of "Milk Molecule Mayhem!" (since trading cards in the fourth game mention "Don't Rain On My Parade" as the title of issue #223 and "The Milkman Always Burps Twice" as the title of issue #619)
  
• Sam has a cameo at the top-left of page 2
  
• The Foul Weather Factory's control room looks a lot like World Wide Weather's control room
  
• Earth Quaker? The hidden subtitles in the second game and a trading card in the fourth game both spell it as Earthquaker; I wonder which spelling is correct

That was a pretty interesting read, I really like how they made it feel like a real comic with those annotated references to other issues. Also Clan of the Fat(ty) Bear and the Humongous Cavedog? That was awesome.

Sorry about the wait guys, but it's all there now:

I have no idea why the thumbnail for the first page is messed up. Guess it doesn't matter if you're transitioning page-to-page anyway.

Thanks a bunch again! So Dr. Scott Bruvvers of the S.H.M.O. is from here; I had forgotten and thought that he only appeared on his trading card in the fourth game. Oh, and something I didn't realize about the other comic until now: the Humongous Cavedog isn't just a reference to Humongous Entertainment, it's also a reference to the Humongous subdivision Cavedog Entertainment.

Thanks so much! I used to own this, but some stupid kids pushed me off the school bus into a puddle while I was holding it. It was damaged to the point where I couldn't read it.

BULLYS!

Hi! My kids are big Humongous Fans and current players of the games and were really interested to see the comic book covers (we bought disks, but the comics were not part of the package). The links to the images of the interior pages are no longer working, presumably because of the change in imageshack's business model. Any chance anyone who posted here still has those images and could make them available? We haven't been able to find them on the web or even a hard (or digital) copy to buy!

Aren't these included in the Steam versions?

Yes, scans of the comics are included with the game files of PJ Sam 2 & 3. There's no way to access them through Steam, but just go to the folder you installed the game to, and you should see a folder labeled "Comic Book".

The imageshack link seemed broken so I uploaded it to imgur. I hope this helps, it's straight from the steam folder: https://imgur.com/a/20pj5

Yo! Updated ImageShack links:

I wasn't aware they were included with the Steam versions. That's pretty neat.

So did they use your scans or make their own?
