Glamdalf the Fabulous

Glamdalf the Fabulous was a man known to Jenny Everywhere and Kim in one universe. He wore pink robes and had a tendency to leave glitter everywhere, but, despite his names and trappings (such as a staff he carried), Kim was not certain that he was technically an actual magic-user, as opposed to a mere entertainer. (PROSE: Pit Stop)

Behind the scenes

The name of Glamdalf is an obvious reference to Tolkien's immortal wizard Gandalf. Interestingly, The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere, which was serialised contemporarily with Pit Stop, also featured a camp parody of Gandalf, Glendalf. The nickname of “Glamdalf” has also been applied mockingly to the 1980s Soviet TV adaption of The Hobbit's version of Glendalf, whose costume included large amounts of glitter.
