Whoof. Nine panels.That’s a lot of drawing. Also, it’s a lot harder to fit the dialog into the small panels. I’ll try to have some more elbow room in the next page… oh, and, uh…
HUGE reveal! Well, only for those of you that don’t read the comments and notes after each episode. So, Eddie McBride, welder, stumbles into fame and notoriety–and easy villainess skanks–just by getting punched out by Superior Man but not arrested. Somehow his legend continues to grow without him doing anything until he gets nominated to become the leader of all the villains in the city.
Really, it’s a tale as old as time.
Here’s a recap from about 20 chapters ago for those of you too lazy to go back and read the entire Superiority Complex chapter. This also answers the question about how his identity has been so murky. It’s because Eddie is indecisive.


Wow. My old artwork sucks.
Now go back and re-read every chapter from Superiority Complex on and see how often Not-Inferno’s Truckball appears in the strip. It’s like Kickman’s favorite offensive weapon.
So what exactly happens now?
They finally confront Supreme Leader and he’s a powerless goober that immediately surrenders and asks for asylum in the U.S. Does that mean that Kickman is now the ruler of Villain City? How will the villains respond to that? Can he just declare Villain City… no longer a thing? Lots of questions still coming up in the pages of Kickman! No, wait… answers! A lot of answers to questions coming up in the pages of Kickman!


Eddie should have handed them a beer to talk over everything. It’s so simple.
(so why don’t YOU create a strip?)(Er, never mind)
Eddie is more a whisky drinker I believe… In fact, that will probably get mentioned next week.
By the way, everyone get this memo? https://www.youtube.com/live/bxWcAkVFUO0?si=lCvwbQT50KIQRCVp
