This morning, I posted the first reward for my Patreon backers — a set of digital wallpapers for desktops and mobile devices. In October, I was happy to announce that I had post more than one Patreon exclusive for every weekday in the month, and I mentioned that my goal was to keep up that pace — if not top it — in November.
So I’m super-proud to share with you my Patreon-by-the-numbers for November. Last month, I uploaded 29 posts for my Patreon backers. Forget weekdays… that’s practically one post for every day of the month!
6 Evil Inc previews
5 Pin-ups
4 NSFW illustrations

If you’re thinking about joining our group to get access to all of that great stuff, it’s a great time to join right now! Evil Inc After Dark has turned into an amazing thing — full-page stories, many of which link together into a larger narrative… and no limits.
If you liked Courting Disaster, you’re going to love seeing what I can do when the gloves come off. (And the gloves are just for starters…) If you miss the comment section on the main site, this is also a chance to have discussion with other Evil Inc fans. The chat function in Patreon updates immediately, so if I’m around (and I usually am), we can even talk in real time.
In short, Patreon is where it’s all happening. You’re missing out on a ton of great stuff if you’re not there. Today's comic dives into trending trauma, where even pain and heartbreak are judged by views, shares, and social reach. For Hailey, the real tragedy isn’t what happened — it’s that none of it is gaining traction online.
The Comic Scout
I’ve been using Toocheke to run my sites for years, so when Brian Leeto launched a brand-new comics discovery platform, I didn’t hesitate.
The Comic Scout launched last week, and it’s a fantastic way to:
-
Follow Evil Inc updates
-
Discover new comics
-
Rebuild the kind of discoverability social media used to offer

Comic strip set in a diner kitchen with seven panels featuring two waitresses, Hailey (young, long hair) and Rose (older, hair in a bun). In the first panel, Rose hugs Hailey as Hailey cries dramatically, saying she’s devastated while Rose reassures her it’s for the best. In the next panel, Hailey angrily gestures while Rose looks upset, complaining Captain Heroic didn’t mention her hashtag. Hailey continues ranting about the lack of promotion — no “like and subscribe” or username mention — only sincere compliments. In silhouette, Hailey reveals she’s a brand ambassador for Campbell’s Soups and wanted attention drawn to the spilled soup incident. Rose checks her phone and notes he mentioned pain instead, joking about needing a skin graft. Hailey reacts with exaggerated horror. In the final panel, both women look at the phone disappointed as Hailey says it isn’t trending, adding, “not even a little.”
