When Dr. Muskiday comes knocking, a former hench finds himself answering questions about the strange powers he gained from a past heist. The alternate-universe Lightning Lady listens closely as secrets about interdimensional travel begin to surface…

We’re in the home stretch — my Kickstarter for Evil Inc After Dark: Full Stream Ahead is almost over, and it all wraps up this Friday!

This campaign has been incredible — thanks to backers like you, we’ve already unlocked bonus content and stretch goals, making the book even bigger and better. Here’s what’s on the table:

• 📕 Full Stream Ahead — the latest Evil Inc After Dark collection, with over 100 pages of NSFW superhero comedy & drama.

• 🎁 Digital Value Pack — 8 DRM-free PDFs, more than 760 pages of After Dark stories, spicy commissions, and archive editions.

• 🎃 Expanded Halloween eComic — unlocked as a stretch goal when we reach $17k, this adds 20 extra pages, including new Real Housewives of Transylvania, an After Dark werewolf tale, and a slew of Halloween-themed cartoons.

• 🔥 Add-ons galore — earlier Evil Inc After Dark books, spicy art collections, and more.

But here’s the thing — once Friday hits, the campaign is gone, and so are these exclusive bundles and stretch goal upgrades.

If you’ve been thinking about it, now’s the time. Don’t miss your chance to grab the biggest, boldest Evil Inc After Dark book yet!
