Dr. Muskiday was this close to finding a way to defeat the macronanos.
Then came a massive power surge.
Now the macronanos are suddenly swimming in raw emotional energy, Muskiday has to redouble his efforts, and nobody at Evil Inc can figure out where all that extra power came from.
Meanwhile, somewhere nearby, Countess Influencia has a very simple request for Captain Heroic:
“Kiss me.”
Mystery solved.
Evil Inc After Dark: Full Stream Ahead collects three complete Evil Inc storylines — along with their adults-only “after dark” counterparts. These spicy chapters peel back the curtain on what happens when superhero satire and workplace comedy take a decidedly NSFW turn.
• Heroic Revenge — Captain Heroic and Miss Match try to build trust while Commander Heroic continues to loom over their relationship. Meanwhile, Lightning Lady falls for a mysterious new face at Evil Inc whose past may prove explosive.
• Homeward Bound — Desi’s time on Earth is almost up unless she can pull off one major act of mischief. Her solution looks suspiciously like an OnlyFans account. Meanwhile, Cap and Miss Match discover that Commander Heroic still has opinions about their love life.
• Long-Lost Fiends — Cassie Cruz’s superhero temp agency is booming, but Thea Rhutman has villainous plans of her own. And Lightning Lady finds herself tempted by an old flame — a cheerful, musclebound minotaur.
And that’s not all. Full Stream Ahead includes the brand-new bonus story “Loads of Love,” an unrated adventure never before collected in print. When Dynasty and Battalion discover their superpowers can be passed along genetically, they decide it may be time to start a new kind of super team — with a little hands-on assistance from their friends.
Packed with superhero satire, workplace comedy, romantic complications, and plenty of adults-only bonus material, Full Stream Ahead is the next oversized installment of Evil Inc After Dark.

Five-panel Evil Inc comic. Back at Evil Inc, HoloClone Miss Match asks Dr. Muskiday what is wrong. Muskiday says he was close to finding a way to defeat the macronanos, but they have experienced a massive power surge. He says he will need to redouble his efforts and wonders where they got so much raw emotional power. In the final panel, a macronano reacts violently to Countess Influencia’s offscreen command, “Kiss me,” while HoloClone Miss Match asks whether this means she can use her Mentos bikini.
I’ve just discovered a clever, fast-paced Web series based in the Zeus Comics store in Dallas, Texas. It’s funny as hell, and very enjoyable to anyone who has seen the inside of a comic shop (or wants to).
From their site:
Hi. My name’s Joe Cucinotti. Formerly a radio DJ in Dallas/Fort Worth and a host of the short-lived (but soon to rise again like a phoenix from the ashes) podcast JOE VS KEN that I produced with long time friend Ken Lowery.
In early 2009 Ken and I were approached by Richard Neal — the Eisner award winning owner and operator of Zeus Comics in Dallas TX. (4411 Lemmon — come visit!) He expressed a desire to develop a web series that would appeal to fans of something like Felicia Day’s THE GUILD but fused with the comic/dramatic style that you might see in something like THE OFFICE or 30 ROCK.
What qualifies Ken and I to help with putting this project together? Well, not a whole lot really. I’ve written a couple screenplays, 2 one-act stage productions, a stage musical and a full length stage comedy. Of those, only 1 of the one-act plays has been produced. Ken writes movie reviews, sits upon his throne as the Lord of Twitter and had a backup story published in THE BLACK DIAMOND #2 — ONE MORE FOR THE ROAD by AiT/Planet Lar. We’re not exactly seasoned comedy writers but that wouldn’t stop us.
After a number of brainstorming and writing sessions, THIS is what we came up with. A show that would pull the curtain back on (and maybe embellish) what life is like for the people who work at a comic book shop. Giving you, the customer/viewer/passhole, a little bit of insight on what we’re saying about you after you leave the store. HAHAHA Just kidding, folks — mostly.
I know I speak for Richard and Ken when I say that we’re very excited to share our work with you.
