It's time to vote on the next round of the community event! Pip/Pepper has met her rival in Squidusa, but this epic, oh so epic, fight needs a resolution!
Question 1! What secret treasure is Squidusa guarding?
Is it glowing geometric shapes? True love? A fancy pen? A really ripping ...

Our weekend art takes a look at some letters back home. This is what you missed, Marlie! You chose soul-stealing succubi over an angry sexy teacher lady that maybe only wants to kick you in the teeth. And you'd probably get along pretty well with Love. You share fine taste in haircuts and both seem ...

The results are in from the second round of voting for our community event to choose Pip's adventure. The power couple of "tentacles" and "cheerleader" won out. All- All right then...

There are ways to introduce yourself to new people and there are ways to make yourself seem like a spooky crazy person that maybe wants to kill.

We continue our What Ifs into the fine civil service that the Mercynaries do by looking back at the guy attacked by the alien symbiote. Tough trade. Sure you're hosting an alien parasite, buuut you do get to rule a planet and have a lustrous mass of hair so fine you can mold it into your own furnitu...

It’s time to vote in the next survey in our community project! As before, our survey options for all the events will be set up by the members of the Sins Patreon and then it’s up to the community as a whole to make the final choice.
Here’s the link to the second survey:
We got to work from home today due to the Super Bowl traffic, so I put the time not spent commuting into some doodles and did a color test for a character that will show up in Manitou. She might have some relationships with some known characters. What do you think, Slapeggs? I might want to go light...

Hard work makes you hungry, but it also brings the team together. Sometimes in questionable ways where you start talking about wearing your teammates like power armor.

2016-02-05 15:01:22 +0000 UTC View PostTo get the important things out of the way first, the NES Duck Tales game soundtrack is some of the finest game music ever composed. It came from an era where Capcom's musicians could do no wrong. After hearing how bad Virt's soundtrack was for the remake and how they butchered fantastic tracks like...

The dreaded Leap Year has tacked on an extra day of work for the Mercs this month, but they're still out there getting things done! Or being mean to a really bubbly and happy alien girl. Just look at how pleased she is. And honest too! I say let her stay!
Big thanks to all our Patreon members for ...

The votes are in for the first round! For the theme, "Video Game" won out and "Heroine" came in a resounding first place for Pip's role. The individual images are also attached for our fine (if cruelly voting) Patreon members!

The Sins have conquered the first month of 2016! Your new years mean nothing to the forces of lovable evil, game critiques, stories, and bonus art!

2016-01-27 02:35:41 +0000 UTC View PostI thought it would be fun to try to get another community event going for a series of pictures. The idea this time around is that the cast of the SinComics studio have gotten tired of taking direction from Pip, so it's time to turn the tables. The Sins are going to write their OWN comic and make Pip...

I thought it would be fun to do a Mercynaries "What If" series of pictures showcasing a world where the Mercs weren't around to do their mighty good. Or bad, depending on your viewpoint. All I'm saying is that the wizard may be a jerk, but he has some good style.
I've talked in the past about how I consider Wonder Boy in Monster World to be one of those games that I consider capital "I" Important to me in shaping my relationship with video games and that it's vividly burned into my childhood memories. I held WBiMW in such high regard that when Sony re-releas...

It's time for another illustrated story from the bizarre worlds of the Mercynaries! When a struggling actor agrees to help out his friends and do a little identity theft (for a good cause), he learns that money changes people. Read "Do No Pharm" in the attached files!

2016-01-14 16:47:57 +0000 UTC View PostI was hoping that by skipping the Dark Souls games, I could get back into the franchise with Bloodborne. That was very much not the case. Bloodborne is just Demon's Souls without the interesting characters and world. It has the same intro where you fight a way too strong monster so it can kill you q...

I recently did a commission for friend of the show, Taralynn, for her story Magical Girl Policy. She asked for a picture of magical girl Angela in her young, carefree, and happy days before the hazards of Spirit Sticks, monsters of the week, and fighting crime in a short skirt changed her world view...

It starts with an overly long cutscene of some guy being tortured by some other guys. It means nothing, it's not interesting, and it's not entertaining. Nothing about it raises questions about who they are or why...

The Mercs begin the new year with... really some questionable humanity but a devotion to their cause.

We're going to take just one more look back at what showed up in Sins this month for 2015!
As we're about to send off/shove off 2015, let the Sins teach the Rulers one more important tradition this year. And oh what an important tradition it is. Happy New Year's, dear readers of Sins and Mercynaries! Thanks for sticking with us!
And we even have a bonus from the Patreon members. Tha...
