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.

TRANSCRIPT

Panel 1 (Later)
Hailey: “Come on, Rose! This is a big opportunity for me! Just tell me what Cap’s ‘usual’ is!”

Panel 2
Rose (from inside the storage closet): “Fine. He loves chicken soup — extra crackers — and a tall lemonade.”

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.”

Panel 6
SFX: KRAKK

Panel 7
Rose (calmly): “Thank you!”

Employee of the Week: Super Skrull

Please join the staff of Evil Inc in congratulating Super Skrull, recipient of this week’s Employee-of-the-Week award.

As predicted by Your Favorite Nemesis, Super Skrull blasted his way back into the Marvel Universe, posing as Black Bolt to infiltrate the Illuminati in Illuminati #5.

And it looks like Super Skrull has at least two dopplegangers — one who seems to have the combined powers of the Avengers and another with an X-Men theme.

Me? I’m watching close for the “Defenders” and “Alpha Flight” Super Skrulls.
