HoloClone Miss Match races to Dr. Muskiday’s rescue with the one weapon the macronanoes never saw coming: an outrageously dramatic declaration of love. The macronanoes quickly discover a much more tempting emotional smorgasbord.
New eComic: The Best of Cassie Cruz
A new Tales from the Evil Inc After Dark Archive eComic is now available: The Best of Cassie Cruz.
This 27-page collection gathers some of the best appearances of Cassie Cruz, one of my favorite characters to write and draw. Patreon backers have already received a free copy as part of their membership.
If you’d like a copy, you can get yours here: https://go.evil-inc.net/Best-of-Cassie
Cassie brings exactly the kind of energy Evil Inc After Dark was built for: confident, chaotic, dangerous, and more than a little likely to make a bad decision feel like a very good idea.

Six-panel Evil Inc comic. Panel 1: Exterior of the Evil Inc Fairmount offices. Inside, Dr. Muskiday is completely covered and controlled by a cloud of macronanoes. From off-panel, HoloClone Miss Match cries, “My sweet baboo! What have they DONE to you?!” Panel 2: HoloClone Miss Match runs into the lab with her hands dramatically pressed to her face. She says, “I never had a chance to tell you my true feelings — to express what has been buried deep inside me!” Panel 3: Close-up of HoloClone Miss Match giving a slight eye roll and shrugging as she adds, “You know… without the massage oils and putting the lab in ‘privacy mode.’” Panel 4: She drops to one knee and reaches toward the cloud-covered doctor, declaring, “I love you, Doctor Phineas Muskiday! I always have!” Panel 5: The macronanoes begin breaking apart and drifting away from Dr. Muskiday’s head. One exclaims, “Hey! What’s THIS?!” Another says, “We’re wasting time with these sad, little scraps…” HoloClone Miss Match watches nervously from the floor. Panel 6: The grinning macronanoes surround HoloClone Miss Match as one finishes, “…when there’s a smorgasbord standing right here!” She ducks and shields her head while the creatures close in.
If you’re coming out to
Philadelphia Comic Con today — and you’re interested in starting-up a webcomic (or improving the one you already started), you’re going to want to attend my panel:
Webcomics Star-Up
Saturday
1:30-2:15PM
Room 105
I’m going to demystify the process of setting up a webcomics Web site. We’ll walk through all the steps you’ll need to get a basic site up and running. Then, I’m going to go through 10 ways you can make your webcomics better — right now. In other words, these are ten mistakes I see constantly in reviews, consultations and critiques. Chances are, you fall into one of the categories. The good news is that the fixes are easy, and the results are significant.
Plus, one lucky person attending the panel is going to get a free copy of my new book,
The Webcomics Handbook. This sequel to
How To Make Webcomics covers webcomics — art, business and beyond — from the top down.
I’ll have copies for sale at my booth, #734, in the softcover AND the limited-edition hardcovers that aren’t sold in stores or online.
Plus… if you stop by my booth, you can check out my Evil Inc graphic novels, the Pahbles collection and more…
Comics Consultation
As I’ve done in the past, I’ll take a small number of scheduled consultation sessions. This is similar to the Skype sessions that I offer. In fact,
I’ll have you use the very same online form to pay for and schedule the session. You will receive a complimentary copy of
The Webcomics Handbook (the limited-edition hardcover that sells for $50) when you show up for your consultation. Once you’ve signed up, I’ll get in touch and we’ll schedule the best time for you to come over for your one-on-one consultation. I usually host these sessions at my booth — since we’ll have a little elbow room there — but I’m more than happy to accommodate any special requests you might have.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Original Art
I’ll have a bunch of Evil Inc originals on hand as well. If you have a favorite strip, please drop me a line and let me know so I can have it available for you to look at. These originals are done with black archival ink on heavy bristol board, and the blue pencil sketch is still visible under the final art. They really do look good when people mat-and-frame them. Many an outhouse wall have been significantly spruced, I’m telling ya.
Commissions
If you’ve seen me at conventions, you know the deal. You can get on my commission list at the show and I’ll do a personalized piece of art just for you. $20 for a single figure (little or no background), and $40 for a completed piece. However, if you buy a book, I’ll do a headshot sketch inside the book at no charge whatsoever.
Panels
I’ll be hosting one more tremendous panel on Sunday…
Patreon Primer
Sunday, June 22
3:00-3:45PM
Room 109
Patreon has become the most significant force in comics crowdfunding since Kickstarter. Webcomics veteran Brad Guigar leads a guide to using Patreon successfully to fund your comics business.
