Revealing the Evil Inc site — and all its secret treasures!

The new Evil Inc site is up, and I'm thrilled to share some features, including...

Panel-by-Panel

We're still loading images, but eventually all of the post-reboot Evil Inc comics will be presented in a Webtoons-style scroll.  Desktop users will get the usual full-comic view.

Patreon integration

 Evil Inc After Dark, Courting Disaster and the NSFW Commissions will each have a subsite on the Evil Inc site that you can access with your Patreon log-in. They are:

This is all about give you a better reading experience than the one currently available on Patreon. For example, desktop users visiting EiAD will get a full-page eBook experience. On smartphones, EiAD will present a panel-by-panel vertical scroll! (We're still uploading, but 27-37 are functional right now.) That means you can read these spicy stories in the comfort of your own phone!

Landing page

The main site now has a different function — presenting all of my various projects to new visitors. If you want to skip all of that, just bookmark http://evil-inc.com/latest — and you'll bypass all of that to get to the latest comic.

Test drive

Give it a spin and let me know your thoughts. I'm sure we'll have some bugs to squash and some bumps to even out. (that always happens.) But I'm really excited to share this new site with you!

Thanks for the heads-up!

I was reading through the classic Evil Inc. Archives and I noticed that a couple of the comics are only half displaying. The bottom half is grey. The first one is here: https://evil-inc.com/comic/thursday-3/ and the next few have the same issue.

It may be a browser specific issue that is causing the issue. Please try this. Clear out the browser's cache and then try logging in again. If that doesn't work, if you have any Chrome extensions or Firefox Add-ons installs, disable them and see if that helps. If it does — let me know which one(s). It might be an ad-blocker or something similar...

The mobile EiADs load pretty fast on 4G phones.

I am logging on with a PC. Just a normal video-game style laptop. Regular Evil Inc seems to work fine. It starts with the most recent, and allows me to flip forward or backwards one page at a time. I do not, however, see anything that appears like a menu to skip more than one page. NSFW Commissions requires me to login with Patreon, but works. Courting Disaster Uncensored requires me to login with Patreon again, despite the fact I am already logged in from the commissions. Other than that, it appears to work in identical fashion. Evil Inc After Dark requires me to login with Patreon again, despite the fact I have already logged in twice. That brings me to a thumbnail page with the After Dark stories compiled in reverse chronological order. About half of the thumbnails are finished, so I presume those are the stories that have been transferred over, however, clicking any of those thumbnails takes me to a new URL (changing the comic number) but does not actually display the story. Instead, it just displays the same thumbnail page. Perhaps those stories are not actually transferred over after all, or there appears to be some sort of an error on my part.

Yes. I'm not planning to change how I'm posting content to Patreon.

Brad Guigar

Will the weekly full page previews of the regular comic still be on this page?

Mr. Nobody

Underneath "For Patrons only" it has an orange "Log in with Patreon" button. What happens when you click that button?

Brad Guigar

I'm not able to access any of the Patreon -specific content by directly connecting to the pages either. If I try going to CD-Uncensored, EIAD, or Guagar Commissions, I get the prompt "For Patrons Only" even though I have an active $10 subscription level. I can only see the content when I'm on the main landing page (https://www.patreon.com/guigar/posts) and even that one has a prompt to raise my pledge to get access to the additional content.

Thomas Hyatt

Oh it does, but the URL is the actual name of the comic, not the 'latest' page specifically. I partly manually entered your link to see if it was a forward, but no it was it's own page. I assumed that was a style/coding choice.

Damian Paradis

"Last" should bring you to the most recent comic in the archive (the one in the image above). Is that not happening for you?

Brad Guigar

addendum... I very much appreciate that the NSFW is kept off to the side, and I had to look for it (but not for long). Evil-Inc Vanilla is SFW so I appreciate the option. I also love that clicking that button after signing out brought me to your Patreon page.

Damian Paradis

Love it! The site is very clean, crisp and intuitive. I went back a comic, and then clicked 'Last' to see if it brought me to the latest page mentioned above. It didn't... I can only assume that's more of a bookmark feature. I do like how reading any comic in the archive (and the latest page) removes the scrolling banner for easy reading. So far I haven't run into any problems and really enjoyed the experience.
