[Panel 1] (At a nearby watering hole...)
Matt the Henchman: I don’t get it! You’re the highest-ranked hench in the biz! What’s got you down?!
[Panel 2] (Argus the Minotaur sighs, sitting at the bar with Matt, drinking beer.)
Argus the Minotaur: sigh I used to hench with a woman. She was… amazing.
[Panel 3] (Flashback of Argus thinking about the past.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): I couldn’t bring myself to tell her how I felt about her because it woulda wrecked our working relationship.
[Panel 4] (Flashback continues.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): When she got promoted, I left henching and just… kicked around for a while.
[Panel 5] (Another flashback, showing Argus sneakily capturing Lightning Lady from behind.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): After years of trying to forget her, I decided to give it one more try.
[Panel 6] (Argus and Lightning Lady sit next to each other, playing video games.)
Argus the Minotaur (narration): Now I’m back where I started. I’m henching again, and she’s close enough to touch, but too far to hold.
*Caption: After a brief stint at the Silver Agency.
[Panel 7] (Back at the bar, Matt looks at Argus.)
Matt the Henchman: So… what? You’re just gonna suffer in silence?
[Panel 8] (Argus grins sadly.)
Argus the Minotaur: Trust me. You do not want to hear a minotaur suffer out loud.
VILF Shirt, Part FiveWell, the comments and the voting pretty much lined up behind Design Number One and Design Number Four. Four got more votes, but both sides were equally vocal.
So, I made a command decision and went with Number Four. I think it’s the most easily identifiable as a villainess. I think Number One was cleaner — and as a design itself, it’s my own favorite — but the image has to help bring the concept of “VILF” home. That’s where Number Four was a little stronger.
Now, let’s talk color. What color shirts would you guys be willing to buy? My gut feeling is black, but I also like the Navy blue and the red. Speak up!
I think we’re going to be hitting pre-orders by next week.
Thanks for all the feedbak, folks. 🙂
