Henchmen for Hire


Henchmen for Hire

The Comic

Henchmen for Hire tells the story of three normal guys who hire themselves out as “evil” henchmen in a world of superheroes and supervillains. While they don’t have superpowers, they’re very good at what they do, and their friendship and loyalty to each other makes them a great team.

The Henchmen:

Tinker – He’s the “Brains” of the operation. He claims to have been in “the business” longer than anyone else, and his knowledge, insights and ability to stay more than one step ahead of everyone else seem to prove that what he claims is true.

Evers – He’s the “Muscle” for the team. He’s much tougher and more dangerous than he looks, and because of his quiet demeanor he’s often underestimated, which he uses to his advantage. He’ll do any job if the price is right, but there are lines he’ll never cross for any amount.

Chance – He’s the “Hands” guy for the Henchmen team. There’s no lock that he can’t open and no pocket that he can’t pick. He’s so talented at what he does, he considers himself almost super-powered, and he thinks if he had some genuine super-human ability, he’d be an amazing super-villain himself. He also considers himself to be quite the ladies’ man…

Henchmen for Hire started in October 2010, and a new page is posted every Monday.
