Transcript

Panel 1

(Cassie Cruz speaking to Jeremy, who is standing in front of a board with pictures of various Evil Inc employees.)

Cassie Cruz: Jeremy, we have to find out who has been leaking information to the heroes before they pin it on me! The only nursing home capable of caring for my mother is contingent on my job here! — And even they have their hands full!

Panel 2

(A flashback scene shows Cassie narrating while Princess Charming, an elderly woman in a wheelchair, is interacting with another patient in the nursing home.)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): As a top-tier mind-controller with dementia, my mom keeps reliving the past — and pulling innocent people into her world!

Panel 3

(A flashback continues with an orderly, wearing a red shirt, standing near Princess Charming. Green energy surrounds them as the orderly appears to be in a trance.)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): Last week, an orderly forgot to turn on his neuro-dampener last week. Before anyone knew it, he was reenacting a battle between Mom and Hijinx.

Jeremy: Was Hijinx a hero she used to fight?

Panel 4

Cassie Cruz (narrating): Worse. It was a villain she had a rivalry with.

Princess Charming: I wish I could be like you. It must be so freeing not to stress over every little pound!

Panel 5

(Orderly is sitting on a couch, speaking with a therapist)

Cassie Cruz (narrating): The poor guy has been in counseling ever since!

Orderly: I mean… I thought I looked cute in bangs!

I just posted another Patreon-exclusive page of NSFW superhero hijinx. This is the third page to the “Fifty Shades of Green” storyline in which Lightning Lady shares one of her fantasies with Elastic Man, who uses his shape-shifting abilities to make it come to life. EI_After_Dark_008c-crop   I’ve got a NSFW comic commission on tap for tomorrow — a continuation of the Halloween-themed series that launched last week. And next week, another full-page installment of the saga of Captain Scarr, the sultry space pirate.

So, the question is… are you a Patreon backer yet? Try it out. You can cancel at any time. And if you pledge today, you’ll get access to all of the stuff I mentioned above — plus all of the exclusive content I published since starting this campaign last year!
