Evil Inc, Feb. 18, 2025

Here’s your early access to Tuesday’s Evil Inc! The villains think their new manager, Cassie Cruz, has been leaking information to the superheroes. She needs to find the REAL mole before it’s too late.

Transcript

[Panel 1]
(Narration: “After their coffee break.”)

Jeremy: Could the mole be someone from the Silver Agency crew?

Cassie Cruz: No… They’ve been in orientation all this time. They wouldn’t have access to high-level intelligence.

[Panel 2]
(Setting: A company orientation room. Employees, including Gluetrap, Malocchio, Faux Fox, and the Night Mayor, are sitting in chairs. Giant Tess is standing, directing the class. A sign in the background reads “SAFETY FIRST – THEN PULL THE TRIGGER” with smaller text referencing workplace romance.)

Gluetrap: What about workplace romances?

Giant Tess: The company frowns on dating among employees.

Night Mayor: That’s not gonna stop me from asking a smokeshow like Lightning Lady out on a date!

(Yellow narration box: “…Or any intelligence, for that matter.”)

[Panel 3]
(Giant Tess responds to Night Mayor’s comment.)

Giant Tess: If you got a date with her… The company would go through a series of Tex Avery-style reactions… including bulging eyes, floor-level jaw drops, a carpet-like unraveling tongue…And “Awoogah-awoogah!” sound effects.

[Panel 4]
(Penultimate Silent Panel)

[Panel 5]
(Giant Tess looms over Night Mayor.)

Giant Tess: …And then it would frown.
