Just because you’ve got super powers, it doesn’t necessarily mean you know how to use them. At least the Homer was smart enough to hire folks who could work with him and help to figure out how his glowing bat worked.
The Henchmen for Hire: Dark Legacy proof has arrived!
If you haven’t checked it out yet, the Kickstarter for the new Dark Legacy graphic novel is live, and you can reserve your copy here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/henchmen/henchmen-for-hire-dark-legacy-the-graphic-novel
You can sign up for printed or PDF download versions of the new completed Dark Legacy tale (with a new page added to the end of the story).
I’ve also added a pledge level where I will draw you as a walk-on character in the next Henchmen for Hire story arc (tentatively titled Origins.) The winners of these pledges can send me a photo of themselves (or of a friend or loved one they want to immortalize) and I will draw them as a character in one of the upcoming story pages. This was a popular option when I offered it previously, so sign up before these limited number of walk-ons are gone.
i´m getting more and more the impression that villain they ‘work for’ is merely added muscle+facade to hide behind due to drawing all of the attention – and eventually, scapegoat.
Yes and no, I think. Certainly, they prefer to work for idiots they can influence (things tend to go badly for the henchmen of evil bosses with any intelligence, as they have found out!), but even so, the idiot boss is still the boss – super powers tend to do that.
That bodybuilder guy was a good example of it, I think – when he wanted something, there wasn’t really anything they could do but play along. Vixx was the same, only not as stupid.
Credit where credit is due. At least this guy has the brains and common sense to listen and to learn. There’s plenty of whom this isn’t true.
Yea but it kinda makes me wonder if it’s a good idea to ‘give advice’ this bluntly. because a recurring theme in this comic is that superpowered people tend to gain massive ego’s so if the continue to talk like this at some point he’s gonna go like ‘stop bitching you assholes!!’ and try and beat them up…
