Current Story:

Chapter 1: Occupant Sin 4

Mr. S. Pain goes to Spain! Travelling to a remote rural location with the Captain to buy a biological weapon, Pain finds himself suddenly up against a massive cult of Spanish brainwashed zealots out for his blood.

Can the intervention of a seven-foot Scotsman and a well-dressed woman who looks suspiciously like his accountant save the day? And what role does the druggie superagent Jack Bauser play in things?

(It's basically Resident Evil 4. Seriously.)


Page Notes

Episode published on Monday 1st of June, 2015.

For clarification those are supposed to be dramatic gun cocks at the end rather than indicators of sudden ammo outages.

In Resident Evil 4, Ada's real goal is to get her hands on Las Plagas, the horrible mutagen that is behind all the shenanigans in the game. That's the real motive for helping Leon along, to get her closer to Saddler.

Title - 75: "Occupant Sin 4"
Subtitle - lvi. "Removal of a Burden(er)"

(Burdener's lifeless corpse falls forward, on to the Captain as he attempts to run away.)

Captain: Argh!
SFX: WHUMPF!

(There's a pause as the assembled henchmen watch the corpse, unsure if the Captain's okay. The following panel has the Captain emerging from under the corpse, covered in blood.)

Captain: *GASP!*

(The crowd of henchmen erupt into cheers, waving their guns around and high-fiving each other in celebration. The Captain sits in a pile of gore looking miserable.)

Henchmen: YEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH! Hurray! Woo!

(Pain, Ben and Samada are off to the side, observing. Samada and Pain are standing close to one another. Samada looks amused as Pain starts addressing the henchmen.)

Pain: Alright, calm down. Never say that I don't do anything for you!
Henchman 1: We won't!
Henchman 2: You didn't!

(Pain gets distracted by the approaching Lieutenant, who is reaching into his armoured vest. Something catches Samada's attention off-panel.)

Lieutenant: Hey Boss, I got that thing for you that you wanted.

(Pain and the Lieutenant shuffle off to talk in private off to the side. Samada and Ben grin at the approaching Captain. Samada is clearly taking the piss as she addresses the Captain, whereas Ben is trying to be friendly. The Captain is still feeling miserable, however.)

Samada: How are you doing, killer?
Ben: You did good, champ!
Captain: Screw both of you.

(The three of them look off to one side, where Ben's pet is licking a random henchman. Behind the trio, Pain waves off the Lieutenant, having had his secretive chat.)

Captain: (looking at Ben's pet mutant) So...does it bite?
Ben: Nah, 'ee was jist misunderstood!

(The Captain places a fresh cigarette into his mouth as Ben animatedly talks about his new pet. Pain spots something on the floor.)

Ben: Aw he wanted was a wee bit ay ruff n' tumble!

(The thing Pain spotted turns out to be the Fluga sample lying beside Burdener's corpse. Pain approaches it then kneels down to pick it up. Samada spots him doing so. Pain places the sample in the left side of his jacket as a gun swings into view and presses against the back of his skull.)

SFX (gun): CLICK

(The owner of the gun is revealed to be Samada, looking determined. Pain's disappointed by this turn of events. Behind them, Ben and the Captain realise what's happening, Ben confused and the Captain glaring at the back of Samada's head.)

Pain: Oh, Samada...

(Pain and Samada are quickly surrounded by henchmen aiming guns at them, both of them regarding this change of events. Samada looks a little worried, Pain keeping a neutral expression. There is a cacophony of clicks as the henchmen cock their guns. Pain risks a glance back at the woman he insists is his accountant, both of them keeping straight faces. The surrounding henchmen all look annoyed at Samada's behaviour with the exception of Ben, who doesn't know what to think.)

Samada: I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but I need that sample.

Episode tagline: What are the chances of all those guns clicking empty when the henchmen surround Samada? I mean there's 15 dudes there, you'd think one of them would have some bullets left.
