Evil Inc – January 30, 2025
by Brad J. Guigar

Panel 1:
(Setting: The Evil Inc breakroom where several villains are gathered. Catnip, a blonde woman in a blue catsuit, stands with her hands on her hips. Miss Match, a red-haired woman in red and orange, is making coffee; Lightning Lady, a blonde in a blue costume; Desdemona, a red-skinned woman in a black and red outfit; Giant Tess, a woman in a green and orange suit; and Count Spurlock, a green-skinned man in a vest.)

Catnip: "Think about it! To be inside the building, Captain Heroic had to know about the Mime’s plans in advance!"

Lightning Lady: "That’s odd. When Dreadshade cracked the safe at Fairmount Bank, he got glitter-bombed!"

Count Spurlock: "I saw. The guy looked like he went down on Shirley Eaton.*"

Caption (bottom): "*You’ve got Google. Look it up."

Panel 2:
Catnip: "And don’t forget what happened when Dr. Patchwork heisted that shipment of arms…"

(Dr. Patchwork stands in front of a group of zombie henchmen with no arms. He opens a crate of weapons.)

Dr. Patchwork: "Damn it! These are just guns!"

Panel 3:
(Catnip raises a finger, looking serious.)

Catnip: "Face it. Someone is leaking information about our clients’ schemes to the superheroes."

Panel 4:
(A flashback scene shows Cassie Cruz, a brunette in glasses and a white blouse, packing up her office at the “Silver Agency,” a superhero placement agency that is now closed.)

Narration box: "And it’s been happening ever since 'Little Miss Silver Agency' took over."

Panel 5:
(Catnip clenches her fist, her expression determined.)

Catnip: "The answer is clear… WE NEED TO GET RID OF CASSIE CRUZ."

Oh... and this is Shirley Eaton.

Site Features

I’ve added a new site feature — right below this blog — so I thought it would be a good idea to do a quick rundown of all the things you can do here for any new readers.

First, the new feature is a Google search engine, with which you can search the Evil Inc site. You can use this to find previous posts in the blog on a particular topic. You can also use it to search the Web itself.

Comic search: You can search the comics, too, using the Ohnorobot search engine that appears directly under each comic. Type in a word (or words), hit “Go,” and find all the comics that use the word(s) you typed. You can volunteer to transcribe a comic by clicking on “Transcribe This Comic” tag under any comic that has not been transcribed yet.

Free e-mail subscription: You can get each day’s comic mailed directly to your inbox. Just send an e-mail to [email protected] to get added to the mailing list.

Free e-mail newsletter: You can get the scoop on all of my comic projects and some insider information about the Evil Inc plot — including spoilers. Just send an e-mail to [email protected] to get added to the mailing list.

Sponsorship: For $20, you can place your ad on a button that will appear on all of the Evil Inc comic pages for an entire month. Go here for details.

One-dollar desktop wallpaper: The hot VILF logo is the current wallpaper being offered for a buck. If I don’t have your screen resolution, e-mail me and I’ll do one especially for you. Click the donation button to the right.

RSS Feed (blog): Stay updated on the latest from the blog with the RSS feed.

RSS feed (comic):The strip itself also has an RSS feed.
