''[http://www.evil-comic.com/ '''Evil Inc.]''''' is a superhero [[Web Comic]] created by Brad Guigar. [[Spiritual Sequel|Somewhat of a continuation]] of Guigar's previous strip, ''[[Greystone Inn]]'', it revolves around the titular company which is run, staffed and provides entirely legitimate services for supervillains. Its CEO is Evil Atom, a once powerful and feared supervillain who is now somewhat past his prime.
 
The main character of the strip was initially Lightning Lady, the [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] of ''Greystone Inn'' who at the beginning of the strip takes a job at Evil Inc. as a secretary- Later on, the strip gradually changed focus towards Captain Heroic, the number one hero in the unnamed city the strip is set in, and Miss Match, another Evil Inc. employee (though Lightning Lady still appears regularly in Saturday comics). A while into the strip (a point which Guigar has once called the "official" launch of Evil Inc.) it's revealed that the two are married and have a son, Oscar. Their opposite moral alignments has caused some conflict but they appear to be [[Happily Married]].
 
Though the strip is mostly [[Gag Per Day Webcomics|gag-a-day]], there have been several story arcs as well.

In the second iteration, Captain Heroic rebuffs her a few times for her safety and when he suspects her of poisoning his dad, pointing out that he has less to lose as a superhero, but she can get 'killed'' if anyone finds out about their secret relationship.
