Gerk Jervis

Gerk Jervis was the mascot of Pancake Tramp locations across America. An animated chef with one eye, he shook when he wasn’t drinking and made a deep moan or growl when the food he was having made him happy. Gerk was always happy at Pancake Tramp.

Carl Drip

It was rare to see a Carl Drip illustration or figurine that hadn’t been violently defaced.

Raddy!
