Chapter 16 | Page 2b: Advance notice

Catnip is miffed that she’s going to lose her commission due to Cassie Cruz’s new policy. To make matters worse, the superheroes seem to have had advance notice on a number of Evil Inc schemes. Evil Inc has a mole. But who…?

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.

Hey Comics — Kids! S02E36: Star Wars Battlefront

Hey Comics Kids podcast logoBe sure to visit our Patreon page! (patreon.com/heycomicskids ) Since Alex left for a trip to tour Chile and Peru along with the rest of the Keystone State Boychoir, we celebrated Christmas a little early in our house. As a result, Alex got Star Wars Battlefront as a present. He delivers a happy review of the game in this episode.

About Star Wars Battlefront

This was the game that finally drove us away from the XBox. See, it wouldn’t work on our XBox 360, so we needed to upgrade. When I asked the kids which platform they’re prefer, the Playstation 4 won out over the XBox One. So it was bye-bye XBox / hello Playstation. The game was a little more graphic in its first-person shooter aspect than I was perpared for. The violence was a little too realistic for my taste. But, as my older son keeps reminding me, he’s not a little kid any more. Max, on the other hand, isn’t very interested in the game at all. You can play as either heroes or villains — which I find appealing. And the visuals are — as you’d expect — amazing!
