Judge D.P. Pan is a character appearing in the TMHT Adventures comics by Fleetway Publications. His name, when spoken, sounds like "Deep Pan", a reference to a pizza with high edges to hold more sauce and toppings.
History[]
During a battle with Shredder, Michaelangelo is knocked out. While unconscious, he visits the Pizza Planet, a world made entirely of pizza. He happily and eagerly begins eating everything in sight, until a group of Pizza People confront him. One of them yells that eating their planet is not allowed and Mikey must be punished. Mikey tries to explain that he didn’t know eating pizza was wrong, but is told that excuses are not allowed either. Then the Pizza Person shouts for the Pizza People to seize Mikey. Since they won’t listen to him, Mikey decides to martial art them and proceeds to battle the Pizza People. He soon has them all lying flat on the ground and decides to leave with a snack. However, when he turns, he finds himself confronted by another group of Pizza People.
Mikey is captured and taken to the Pizza City, where more Pizza People angrily throw chunks of pizza at him. His next stop is Pizza Court, where he is brought before Judge D.P. Pan. After Mikey is placed in the dock, the Judge orders silence and turns to the Pizza People of the Jury, telling them that Mikey was caught eating pizza and is clearly guilty. Mikey asks what about ‘innocent until proven guilty’? The Judge once more shouts for silence, ignoring Mikey's question, and then asks if the jury has reached a verdict. The head juror says that they have and find the accused very, very guilty indeed. After this pronouncement, the Judge says that he will now pass sentence. For crimes against ‘pizzamanity’, he orders Mikey to be pizzared. Pizza Nightmare!
