In Epilogue One, we had our first reveal. Way back at the start of this chapter, we were introduced to Albert, who insisted that his partner in crime was an 800-pound moth man who was invisible. But Cassie was never sure if he was telling the truth… The top half of today’s page settled it once and for all. Not only is he real, but evidently he’s tough enough to conquer a kaiju.

In Epilogue Two, we have our second reveal. Tempest tried her level best to seduce Iron Dragon. Did he succumb to her charms?

Panel 11

Desdemona: …How big?

Way back at the start of this chapter, we were introduced to Albert, who insisted that his partner in crime was an 800-pound moth man who was invisible. But Cassie was never sure if he was telling the truth… Today’s epilogue settles it once and for all.

 Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating!

I had the uncanny urge to make a magazine-style ad for my 🔞 Patreon this Thanksgiving. The idea of escaping family drama by sitting in a quiet corner and popping open EiAD gave me a smile. I’m kinda geeked by how it turned out. Fair warning: Lasciviousness below. I’ll put it after the transcript.

Panel 1

Narration: Epilogue one: To discover how the Silver Agency crew defeated the monster, we have to go back a couple of days… Right after calling Glue Trap and Jeremy back to the office, Cassie phones the gang of ne’er-do-wells.

Panel 2

Night Mayor: We’re being offered full-time positions at Evil Inc!

Crimson Ghost: What happens when they find out we didn’t stop the monster?!

Malocchio: I’m not gonna tell. Are you gonna tell?

Panel 3

Albert (and the Imaginary Fiend): Your secret’s safe with us!

Although she started The Silver Agency to help superheroes, Cassie Cruz has been named the new manager of the Fairmount branch of Evil Inc! She announces that there will be a few new faces around the office — including a new corporate liaison who is an avowed troublemaker!

Although this is the end of the “Boss Battle” chapter, stick around. I have no fewer than four epilogues coming up to bring this baby in for a landing! The first one will explain exactly how the giant monster was defeated!

The new departments…

I’m considering the following departments for our newcomers.

• Public Retaliations — I mean… Relations: Propaganda, public image and villain branding

• Environmental Impact: Lairs, doomsday devices, and other operations have unquestionable environmental impacts. The person in charge of this department will be tasked with maximizing them.

• Legal Affairs/Cover-ups: ‘Nuff said.

• Matchmaking / Rivalries: Matching heroes and villains into ongoing rivalries.

• Schemes/Planning: Now that Miss Match has transitioned into a teaching position, this department is now without a leader.

The existing Evil Inc/Fairmount departments are…

• Professional Development: Miss Match

• Reception: Lightning Lady

• Occult Services: Desdemona

• Lairs/Surreal Estate: Iron Dragon

• Hench Allocation: Count Spurlock

• Superhuman Resources: Giant Tess

• Weapons/Power Suits: Psy-Chick

• Research & Development: Dr. Muskiday

• Sales & Service: Catnip

Last week, Cassie Cruz was named the new manager of the Fairmount branch of Evil Inc. Today, we rejoin Cassie as her faithful assistant asks her why she accepted the position.

Transcript

Panel 1

Narration: Later… back at the Silver Agency…

Jeremy: Ma’am… why are you doing this?

Panel 2

Cassie Cruz: The Evil Inc nursing home is the only place capable of caring for my mother’s special needs. And even they’re having trouble!

Panel 3

Cruz: So, when Dr. Whoosh offered me the job, I didn’t have a choice.

Panel 4

Cruz: Do you know what that feels like?! Abject powerlessness in the face of an assertive superior?

Panel 5

Cruz: Knowing you must subjugate yourself to their will? — Serve their every whim?! — Kneel before their authority?!?

Jeremy: Gulp. Y-Yes… yes, I do…

Panel 6

The scene widens out to show that Jeremy is still stuck to GlueTrap’s back. He’s been listening to this conversation against his will.

GlueTrap: Honestly… this is getting uncomfortable…

Here’s your first look at the full-page version of next week’s Evil Inc comics.

Alt Text:

A group of supervillains gather for a meeting at the Fairmount City Business Park. The CEO, Doctor Whoosh, addresses them about his previous plans to close the branch. He has changed his mind due to their recent teamwork. He announces that he will promote a manager from within, calling Iron Dragon forward. Iron Dragon, a muscular villain in a dragon-emblazoned costume, humbly steps forward.

In the final panels, Doctor Whoosh singles out Cassie from the “Silver Agency” for her team’s ingenuity, including defeating a giant monster. He shakes her hand and states that she is the right person to lead the office.
