Making Evil Podcast - Episode 7

Wednesday, July 29th, 2020

Nils-Petter Norlin and Nick Marino (that's me!) talk about THE END of The Evil Life webcomic! That includes Finding Evil chapters 9-12 and the Evil Interlude (#21-27 on Webtoon), which feature Hester, Gloom, and Blarf as they sell cookies, steal trucks, and battle their enemies on the golf course.

Hot on the heels of announcing our next webcomic, KUTE Crew, we're excited to finally talk openly about the making of that upcoming story and compare it to our creative process for the The Evil Life.

Going behind the scenes of this comic one last time, we revisit some of our favorite Evil moments. We also drop a few surprises along the way, including a detailed description of this deleted chapter...

...as well as the reveal of a super secret epilogue to The Evil Life that's only available upon request (dm me or email me to see it).

And then there's this...
...the digital collected edition of Finding Evil! It's a widescreen hi-res PDF that's packed with 200 panels of humor, action, and slice-of-life supervillainy.

The chapters covered in this conversation include Evil Interlude, 9: Stand Down pt. 1, 10: Stand Down pt. 2, 11: The Club pt. 1, and 12: The Club pt. 2. Thanks for reading The Evil Life! We appreciate you! And don't miss the launch of KUTE Crew on August 4, 2020. You can find out more about it here.

I want to send a special thanks to my amazing wife Rosie Knight, who was a fantastic sounding board and consultant throughout my work on The Evil Life. She has a book coming out soon, Fierce Heroines, so go check it out!

My new comic is launching soon! It's called KUTE Crew and it follows the adventures of the Koala Underwater Tactical Elite as they scoot around the sea and take on different sects of the sinister Squid Squad. Here's the cover featuring astounding art by co-creator Nils-Petter Norlin and a logo by yours truly...

Starting August 4th, our weekly webcomic will update every Tuesday at 9 AM PT. And you can subscribe to KUTE Crew on Webtoon now!

- KUTE Crew to Set Sail on Webtoon

Nils and I have been secretly toiling on this tale for over four years, finishing up The Evil Life as we began to outline outrageous exploits for our fuzzy fighters.

Each episode on Webtoon is actually 2-3 pages of our traditional comic book layout that I'm cutting up into individual panels. Our entire story is built out of 10-page chapters, so a new one will begin on Webtoon every month or so.

Once a chapter of KUTE Crew is complete, I'll upload a hi-res digital comic of it to Gumroad. I'll also offer self-published minicomics of each chapter that are printed and assembled right here at home.

This comic is a true labor of love for us, a story full of our big ideas and crazy dreams. I'm thrilled to continue my collaboration with Nils-Petter Norlin, who's bringing so much brilliance and amazing visualization to KUTE Crew.

I hope you'll subscribe on Webtoon and come aboard now so you can be ready when we set sail. It's gonna be wet and wild!
