Badger #88 (11)

In "Aftershocks," the Lady Cobras—Narcissus, Jaborandi, Patchouli, Sassafras, and Clove—close in on Mavis Davis Sykes, a former ally, demanding the return of stolen money. As tensions flare, Master Poon arrives, only to be betrayed when the group turns on him, revealing his own deception. With Mavis uncovering Poon’s lies and his theft of Ham’s crystal ball, the fragile alliances begin to unravel. Written by Mike Baron and illustrated by Mike Norton, with inks by Mark Stegbauer and letters by Barbara Kaalberg, the cover by Mike Norton and Barbara Kaalberg captures the moment’s mounting intensity.
