Evil Inc, Sept. 3, 2024
Added 2024-09-03 13:34:20 +0000 UTCI'm quickly catching up from being away from the studio so much in August! (Read about it here and here and here.) As a result, there may be a couple of days where I'm sending two Patreon rewards a day to get back to my regular posting schedule. Today is going to be one of those days. You're getting the next Evil Inc update now and I'll be sending LEWDcrate links later this afternoon!
Cassie Cruz has a big problem at her company, which finds paying work for superpowered people. Most of her clients are washed-up villains and people with questionable credentials.
Her problems are about to get worse…
Transcript
Panel 1:
Cassie Cruz stands with her arms crossed, facing her assistant, Jeremy, seated at a desk. She asks, "Any messages for me, Jeremy?"
Jeremy responds, "One, ma'am. Mister Prentice from Justice LTD called..."
Panel 2:
A close-up of Jeremy speaking. Jeremy says, "The city's top superheroes have been called away, and he wants us to monitor the city in their absence."
Panel 3:
Cassie, looking surprised, exclaims, "WITH WHAT?! Our roster is more flimsy than that kid's MOTHMAN fantasy! Tell him no!"
Panel 4:
Jeremy, adjusting his glasses, replies, "The operating agreement we signed stipulates we must. We're contractually OBLIGATED."
Panel 5:
Cassie says, "So... we monitor the city, and if anything BIG happens, they come back to handle it, right?"
Jeremy replies, "I'm told they will be on a different planet. So... no."
Panel 6:
Cassie, with a tense expression, says, "I'm feeling a significant degree of STRESS, Jeremy."
Jeremy, nervously, replies, "I'll get the tarp, ma'am."
