Evil Inc After Dark #82, Page 1 — The Emotional-Support Krakken 🐙 (Patreon)

This may be the most ambitious Evil Inc After Dark page I’ve ever drawn — and it all started with a suggestion from last month’s Build-a-Baddie poll.

The Emotional-Support Krakken has arrived to improve workplace morale in the most hands-on way imaginable.

🧪 Previously in the lab…

As Dr. Muskiday looks for human test subjects for his newest invention, he no sooner addresses the case of the inflatable intern than Giant Tess insists that all his inventions have been disasters!

His answer?

“The Emotional-Support Krakken was a big hit!”

And now we see exactly what he meant.

🐙 What You’ll Notice (Because I Sweated Over It)

Multiple character interactions happening simultaneously

Several detailed close-ups that linger over every damp detail

Layered tentacle choreography (yes, that’s a thing now)

A full office environment with individualized reactions

And more tentacles than is medically advisable

This page pushed my composition skills, my rendering stamina, and possibly my moral compass. (Nah... 😀)

Worth it.
