Issue 5: Page 14
MONDAY EDIT: …. DUR HUR HUR. So today? It’s a holiday. Which means our update is delayed until Wednesday. Sorry to leave you hanging!
Hahaha, the first panel exchange is one of my favorite things in this issue. Diva’s failure at manipulation is also lulzy, but in a different way. (You know business is srs when Mom puts down her martini.)
Happy weekend, guys!
Today’s incentive is another unexpected Valentine. Thank you again, guys, for continuing to vote for us — we hit number three last night, and I danced a jig. :3

Okay, I can read FAR too much into that incentive, considering the name of one character shown, and the name of a related character NOT shown. But it would imply A) that another personage would never be shown, except in flashback, because he’d have to be dead, B) an angel is breaking vows of fidelity, or C) this incentive is entirely non-canon.
February 12th, 2010 at 2:32 pm
Yep, that’s a pretty big point: it’s not just a matter of convincing Mom to rescue an angel. We’re talking opposing the Big Guy himself, here 0_0. Nope, I can’t see how Diva’s going to turn this around. Can the wand do mind control?
February 12th, 2010 at 2:42 pm
Tsk tsk, Mom. Offering your eleven year old a martini… And Diva certainly doesn’t need coffee. XD I can’t wait to see what happens to make Mom actually change her mind!

Re the incentive: That look on Micheal’s face is precious. *fan giggle*
February 12th, 2010 at 3:35 pm
oh, good point mom. But you’d be IMfamous! isn’t that what every devil wants?
and I don’t remember who the blonde guy in the incentive is. *facepalm* that’s what I get for reading all of the past issues at 2 in the morning when I first saw this.
February 12th, 2010 at 3:40 pm
its ok =3 its Micheal and i assume Michelle’s mommy
February 12th, 2010 at 4:28 pm
Mom has a point. There’s going to be mixed reactions on this one. Some people are gonna think she’s doing a good deed, while others are going to see this as quite devilish.
February 12th, 2010 at 4:43 pm
$20 says Michelle was named after him!
February 12th, 2010 at 5:11 pm
That blonde guy in the incentive is THIS guy:
http://www.evildivacomics.com/?p=425
His name is Michael. And he’s in charge here.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:00 pm
man i wouldnt TAKE that bet.
hmmmnnnn i do have 20$ on that Michelle’s mommy has weapon envy x3
February 12th, 2010 at 6:34 pm
last panel. realization of epic fame if she took the case dawning on Mom in in 3, 2, 1….
Ok, Diva, you surprise me. that is some NICE xanthos gambit word play on your mom here. 10 out of 10! good job there Joe and Lady Brinson-sama!
@ incentive: oh SNAP! i see that previous posters here think this is non-cannon and what not, but somehow i see this AS cannon! From what was described about her from the powers that be here, this DOES fit her M.O. If this is the case, then i am pegging Michelle’s mom as close to being a yandere as angel can get. (which isn’t much, but the idea is sound). … this pic is still funny as all get out.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:35 pm
No, the Dude is in charge here, he’s just his best worker.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:36 pm
I think Michelle’s Mom’s expresion is better. but that’s just me.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:37 pm
wait a sec. first there are two mouse, now a white mouse? (sigh) where is a cat when you need one.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
envy? no. Lust? yes!
February 12th, 2010 at 6:52 pm
Yaay #3!! Time for a martini! (Div’a mom is the absolute coooooolest! I can’t decide who I like more–mom or dad. We need more of both of them. It’s kinda nice to see her get a bit fired up, too.
February 12th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
I loved the fact that she so casually offered Diva a martini, knowing it would just send her over the edge. Mom is so manuipulative (I mean fun!)
February 12th, 2010 at 7:44 pm
True story: everyone else can have Loki. I’ll take Michael. :3
February 12th, 2010 at 7:52 pm
Probably. Can Diva sucsesfully do mind control without accidently switching her Moms personality with her dogs or other such fun nonsense? No.
February 12th, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Did anyone else look at the incentive and say “Young Virgil!” before they realized it was micheal?
February 12th, 2010 at 7:56 pm
My theory on why you dig him: his design reminds me of Cain. >.>b
February 12th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
Oh my god dude — I was going to email you this ……………. actually I am going to email you because lol public forum how ridiculous do I want to be.
February 12th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
One of two things about the incentive. Either A) Mrs. Serafino (I don’t think I’ll ever stop calling her that, even if we do learn her first name) does, in fact, have a romantic bone in her body and it turns out Michael is Michelle’s father, but doesn’t comprehend who the valentine could be from because he’s not used to seeing this side of his wife. Or B) Mrs. Serafino is, in fact, an incurable prankster.
February 12th, 2010 at 8:32 pm
Nya~~~~
February 12th, 2010 at 9:01 pm
more like she can push Diva’s buttons just fine, being her mother and all.
February 12th, 2010 at 9:05 pm
or C) Mrs. Serafino is becoming an obessed stalker (where as an angel CAN become one).
February 12th, 2010 at 9:45 pm
Young Virgil doesn’t exist. He was having ROMAs when time /began/.
February 12th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
(pets) go gett’m!
February 13th, 2010 at 1:02 am
Lol he came out a little old man he’ll leave an old man?
February 13th, 2010 at 1:03 am
Mmm I like the word ‘fangir’l better. Stalker would require ‘creepy’
February 13th, 2010 at 1:08 am
I’m the original Mouse but I’ve changed my name to White Mouse and the other Mouse is now Mouse2. :)
February 13th, 2010 at 6:49 am
wait a sec, what if Virgil was just born old and as the ages goes by, he grows younger and then….
February 13th, 2010 at 6:53 am
there are times when fangirls and stalkers are hard to tell apart. I still remember that time i sat next to a pack of twilight moms in my local barns & noble store. (shudders)
February 13th, 2010 at 9:29 am
Maybe he’s like *half* of Benjamin Button? He was born as a really old man having Really Old Man Adventures and he’s just going to stay a ROM forever? Hm, those must be some interesting baby pictures.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:49 am
I did. Actually I was wondering why 1) Michelle’s mom was hitting on Mr. Virgil and then 2) why Virgil was young and had a scar on his eye.
February 13th, 2010 at 10:53 am
Hmm. It occurs to me that if Diva’s mom beat Foghorn Sanders-modeus, she’d have proven that she was better than him, and then the Big Guy would start hiring her for all his cases? Ehh?
February 13th, 2010 at 1:33 pm
Damn, getting no more updates from dA. :( (It just doesn’t come to my messages anymore…)
However, getting her mother to defend Angela was a cool move from Diva.
February 13th, 2010 at 4:28 pm
I was quoting the page I linked. It’s a much more localized “here” that Michael is in charge of.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:00 pm
That reminds me, I was Mandi, but I’ve changed to Dread Pirate Queen Amanda. I’ve been meaning to updte it here.
February 13th, 2010 at 7:03 pm
That crosses the line from questionable to downright… good. She’d never go THAT far.
February 13th, 2010 at 8:43 pm
@Lela: those are classified
/Mikuru
February 14th, 2010 at 5:48 pm
I wonder how Diva made her mom to defend Angela…
February 15th, 2010 at 9:01 pm
How famous would she be for taking on The Big Guy?
Uhhhhh VERY!?
February 15th, 2010 at 11:51 pm
Trying to get hired by Satan is a good act?
February 16th, 2010 at 1:55 am
I think dpqa probably thought you meant ‘the Dude’
February 16th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
Dear readers,
Just because there is no update doesn’t mean we don’t still need your vote. Follow the old Al Capone saying: vote early and vote often. Thanks.
February 16th, 2010 at 11:05 pm
ACK!!! We fell back into 4th place!!!! Oh no!!!! Vote people vote!!!!
February 19th, 2010 at 6:43 pm
Um, I don’t get messages anymore on dA.

There’s a perfectly clear answer to Mrs. Beelze’s question: Infamous, dahling!
