One of my goals with Minions at Work 2.o is to make it bigger and more cinematic. This is, no pun intended, heading in the right direction!
This is my test site while I gear up for a new and improved Minions at Work 2.0 webcomic! I'm dumping our original single-panel-with-a-caption format that served us for over 300 cartoons, and going to full-page, multi-panel comics with word balloons! That means a more cinematic look, bigger scope, more character development, actual STORY, and serialized storylines that will span multiple comics, and sometimes multiple weeks!
We're very close to our full, 2.0 reboot (which will officially begin with a big, multi-week story, a lot of which is already "in the can," but right now we're in "soft open" mode, with a weekly schedule of at least one all-new comic page (usually on Wednesday or Thursday) and additional features, such as "remastered" classic comics, bonus panels, and even extra full-page comics, as time, resources, and scheduling allow.
Please enjoy, and we appreciate your feedback and comments (and your support on Patreon, if you feel so inclined, which for a dollar a month will get you most of our comics as soon as they're finished, rather than waiting for post day).

Doctor Head-in-a-jarEvery group has its whipping-boy, and for the Legion of Doom, it’s poor, Doctor Head-in-Jar. A sad, disembodied head in a jar (thus the name), Dr HIAJ doesn’t say much, and always looks kind of sad. He’s frequently bullied by Doctor Coldblood, who like to call “show of hands” votes as meetings just to shut down his ideas. Though he is sometimes seen riding around with his jar mounted on a robot body of his own design, he and his jar are often seen just sitting around. At Legion of Doom meetings, he’s often just sitting on the table, and he sometimes turns up in the background in the oddest places, in “where’s Waldo” fashion. Despite not having a stomach, Doctor Head-in-a-Jar is known to have a drinking problem, and is sometimes seen pouring booze directly into the liquid in his jar. Pet Peeves: Pretty much everything Doctor Coldblood does to him, being called “Bob,” sharing his jar with goldfish. Comics: 26 |
No. 1Leader of White Team, call him “Number One,” not “No One,” if you know what’s good for you (and if you think he might be listening). Experienced and unflappable, is wise in the ways of Minion. Unfortunately, he’s been blown off a few too many catwalks, and been hit in the head from behind just a few many times, so not everything he says is trustworthy, or even entirely sane. But when it comes to advice on staying alive as a minion, he’s the best you’ve got. He speaks with a mangled accent that’s one part Baltic-state and one part Valley Girl. It isn’t clear if this is the result of his country of origin, or simply repeated head-injuries. He claims it’s because he learned English by watching a pirated VHS tape of the movie “Clueless” over and over. Likes: Bringing his team back alive, pizza. Dislikes: Losing another Number 13, General Zed. Comics: 178 |
Number 9If Number 9 has a motto, it’s “I’m a lover, not a fighter.” It’s not that Number 9 is cowardly or lazy. That’s Number Two’s job. It’s just that Number 9 has a pragmatic view of what constitutes a reasonable payment-to-risk radio, and on a Minions’ salary, that isn’t very much. Number 9 is one of the more technically proficient Minons, and he loves to play with the toys that come with his job. He likes electricity and things with levers and buttons. He likes things that spark, glow, and shoot beams. He especially likes things that go fast, to the point of strapping a warp-drive on the Minionmobile. He can also frequently be seen at the helm of Cap’n Rehab’s submarine, the Naughtyless. Least Favorite Food: Fish Sticks. Pet Peeves: Overtime, penguin practical jokes, salt water corroding his “bling.” Comics: 109 |
