Category: The Jokes and Japes of Fun-Loving Phantoms
“The Jokes and Japes of Fun-Loving Phantoms” canon consists of collections of stories and comics, some consisting of multiple parts, each with a humorous undertone. Whether it’s a celebration or party, Jinji playing pranks on his fellow Ghosts, Jinji getting the tables turned on him, or non-Ghost friends and guest characters all getting into the spooky spirit – one thing is for sure, it’s all for the fun!
Challenge Unlocked!
Wanting to get to know Enigma better, Jinji invites Enigma into his study and asks him to demonstrate his abilities. Enigma considers this an honour, and presents Jinji with a series of 3-dimensional wood jigsaws as examples of the types of puzzle he loves to make. To his surprise, however, Jinji solves them all in record time! Having prided himself in being an expert puzzle maker and locksmith in life, the spirit Enigma is shocked to learn just how skilled Jinji is at puzzles, and decides he needs to step up his game. So he pays a visit to a particular pungent prankster pal of Jinji’s. Together, the two of them create a truly explosive challenge for Jinji to attempt…
A Series of Sticky Surprises!
Created for Jinji’s 2024 Birthday, this comic was also a writing experiment between Jinji and Kitty the Gengar Queen, with each writing half of the comic without seeing the other’s half. The resulting comic was then sent to Kumada Panda to be drawn and inked, so neither of us knew the contents of the other’s half until just before publication.
Jinji the Gengar is convinced by Enigma to lock himself away for 24 hours inside a coffin, while the rest of the Ghosts — as well as Kitty and Kumada Panda’s Ghost — prepare a special Birthday surprise for him. Of course, Jinji being Jinji, he has a surprise for them too! Neither party is expecting what happens next!
