In this week's installment, Sentius has surprised everyone with his dramatic return. He has stated his sinister scheme to transform everyone in Metrobay into mindless drones. He wants to build his vision of the perfect society where enslaved humans live under the thumb of all-powerful computers. With no free will, emotion, or independent thought the people will be nothing more than human robots who exist only to serve their machine masters. Belinda was the first subject to join Sentius's cybernetic army. With a team of super slaves under his command his power could be limitless! So which sexy heroine will be targeted next? Can the Superheroine Squad band together and take out this latest threat? To find out, read part eight of "Hostile Takeover", available now at HIPComix.com!

That was indeed a damn good chapter! Well done, Doc and Finister!

I'll certainly be sad to see this series go...how much longer do we have anyway? Hopefully a while yet!

Hey Guys,

This is my first time posting up but I just have to say what an awesome job you guys are doing. So I am wondering if you really need to let it end? Doc and Finster this is a great story line and it was the reason I had joined HIPComix in the first place. I am sure you guys have something great lined up for the future, but it will be hard to see it end.

Long Live Dr. Twisted!

Yes, the latest chapter was excellent. Im just eagerly waiting to see how things eventually turn out. Hopefully that will be a while from now.

Normally, I do not go at all for women with long blonde hair (Ive always perferred short black hair, pale, and gothic-looking), but Fins art is just so fantastic that I can not help but love the work. As a result, the transgformation of Ms. Metrobay was unbelievably sexy!

This was a great chapter in a great story. The robotization of Ms Metrobay was amazing to see. Looking forward to seeing what comes next, who will be robotized next and how Twisted will regain control of his robot women.

I can't put into words how much your compliments mean to me. I think I speak for Finister when I say that we are really proud to share our work with you all and happy that you have enjoyed it so much. Thanks again for all of your support and encouragement. As you probably know there's nothing I look forward to more than reading your comments, so please keep them coming!

On a related note, there are still four more installments left until "Hostile Takeover" is complete, so there's still plenty of time for more of that robo-goodness! Stay tuned!

Here's the cover for Thursday's update:

Yummy new cover. I can't wait!!

With Belinda and Ms. Metrobay under his control, Sentius will have no problem bringing the females who were left behind (the rookies) under his control. Then more fun begins.

It sure looks that way, doesn't it? What I can say is that the action will be fast and furious over these last four installments, starting Thursday November 2. You're not going to want to miss a single page...

Greetings all... it's Thursday, so that must mean another thrilling edition from Doctor Robo! This week, it's part nine of "Hostile Takeover". HIPComix members, you know where to go:

... and if you're not a member, what are you waiting for? After today there are only three more installments until the "Twisted Tales" are finished!

Things just keep getting worse for our band of sexy heroines. Their leader Ms. Metrobay has been transformed into a mindless cyborg by the evil computer, Sentius. He has programmed her to capture and assimilate more heroines with the goal of controlling mankind through cold-hearted computer domination. If the rest of the Superheroine Squad falls victim to Sentius's vile cybernization machines, no one will be able to stand between him and the end of humanity as we know it. The stakes are that high. Now with two obedient drones under his power the malevolent computer hungers for more obedient thralls to add to his collection. Who will be the next victim to fall under his spell? Can anyone stop him before it's too late? Find out in "Hostile Takeover", episode six of "Twisted Tales", available now in the members area of HIPComix!

This series is awesome, and the last two installments have been amazing!

Doc and Finister, thanks for such great work.

Some of the aspects in particular that I have loved:
- I love the mindless robotic nature of the enslaved women.
- I love the gray discoloration to their skin and their glowing yellow eyes. It's very sinister and inhuman. Love it!
- I love the brief scene with Marcy, and the compassion she has for the enslaved Ms. Metrobay, before being brutally attacked.
- I love Sentius gloating at the end: "Their pathetic minds are no match for my cybernization machines. Isn't that right, my lovelies?" He's insulting them and gloating over how quickly they succumbed to his brutal stealing of their minds and bodies, and they are mindlessly acknowledging him as their master. Super hot!!

Keep up the awesome story! I don't want it to end!

Thanks for the great feedback, Brainhusk. I really appreciate it, particularly the specifics of what you have enjoyed. Obviously those themes are right up my alley too. I've been particularly pleased with the response to the last couple updates. Much of the credit goes to Finister Foul. It goes without saying that without him "Twisted Tales" would not be possible.

I'm sorry to say, but there are only three updates left of "Twisted Tales" unless there is sufficient demand for a sequel down the road. Regardless, we still have a lot to cover in a short amount of time so expect each of the remaining installments to be action-packed!

I agree with the comments of brainhusk and hope to see a similar series or sequel in the future.

Brainhusk has expressed my sentiments of why I love Twisted Tales as well.

So Doc, since you stated that unless demand is there for a sequel, then let the voting begin! Here is my vote for a sequel!

Funny, I just voted on Tuesday and I am now voting today.

God bless democracy.

I'll be upfront and tell you now that Finister Foul and I have had rudimentary discussions about a sequel but that's about it. Even if we gave it the green light it would still be months from now, if not longer. I just want to be perfectly honest so there are no undue expectations.

I am glad to see that there is interest, though. It makes me feel good to know that you guys want to see more. Thanks for all of your support!

My only other request is that Dr. Twisted needs to avoid being assimilated and escapes somehow, so that you have him for the next diabolical attack on Metrobay.

I like the fact that you have introduced a whole raft on new heroines as well.

P

I'm not going to get into details, but let's just say that robotizing males is not one of my favorite pasttimes. I'll leave it at that. I did it once in "Carnal Knowledge" and I don't plan on it again anytime soon.

Finister and I figured that the ranks of the Superheroine Squad needed to be filled out a bit. We have these great characters from the other stories (particularly the members' requests), so why not bring them all together under one roof? They're kind of like the Justice League, but with more curves!

By the way, here's the cover for the next issue of "Hostile Takeover":

Look for the full update on Thursday, November 16.

We're getting down to the nitty gritty. After today's update there are only two installments left of "Hostile Takeover", and of "Twisted Tales" as a whole. They are scheduled for November 30 and December 14. Mark your calendars!

In part ten of "Hostile Takeover", we find Sentius gloating about his string of victories over the Superheroine Squad, Dr. Twisted, and Belinda Giolla. The evil computer is so arrogant that he takes a time out from conquering the city to engage in a sultry little tryst with his three lusty, busty, and completely obedient robot slaves. The action is hot, kinky, and literally dripping with pure sexuality. But when Sentius catches Marcy Smith bravely attempting to get help, he quickly moves to take care of her permanently. Can Marcy somehow fend off the fiendish computer and free her comrades from their mental bonds, or is she doomed to join them as mindless drones? Find out in this week's issue of "Twisted Tales", available now at HIPComix!
