Chapter 17 | Page 2b: The Ol’ Battle Ax

The #GuigarChristmasCountdown Rolls On

Every day until Christmas, I’m releasing a brand-new holiday single-panel gag — and this year’s batch has already included:

  • Overworked elves

  • Malfunctioning snowmen

  • Questionable reindeer behavior

  • And Santas who are absolutely phoning it in

Next week’s cartoons keep the absurdity rolling. If you’re counting down to Christmas with me… buckle up. We’re not even halfway to the weirdest ones. Catch them on BlueskyPatreon chat, or the Evil Inc Subreddit.

Panel 3
Rose: “Say… do you think you could open the door now? There’s not much air in here.”

Panel 4
Hailey: “If you look in the corner, you’ll see an old battle ax.”

Panel 5
Hailey: “There’s no battle ax in— Oh.”

A Few Words From Alex

Howdy, folks! Thank you all SO MUCH for the wonderful welcome into the Evil Inc family.  I’ve gotten nothing but lovely tweets and comments from you guys, and it warms the cockles of my heart.  I hope you’re enjoying the new colors as much as I am when making them. KS header graphic FIRST THINGS FIRST!  I’m running a Kickstarter to make the first print volume of The Hues, my webcomic!  You can pick up a book for only fifteen bucks– how easy is that?  Be sure to share the link with your friends and such, too, because that kind of thing really helps. 😀 tagfest_2015 map SECONDLY!  This Saturday, I’ll be at TAGfest in Toledo, OH.  I’ll be at Dealer’s Room booth #1, and anyone who backs the Kickstarter on the spot will get to choose a random free print from the MYSTERY BOX!  My table will be the one with the big rainbow banner that says ART HARDER!  Hope to meet some of you there. 😀
