| Villain Comics #17: Origin of Black Friday - A? Hidahl - 2017 - ? |
Friday Black started out as a great employee at Walton Mart; but after a while, she grew insubordinate.
She started raising concerns about the working standards. She started asking for more pay. She started complaining about one of her coworkers "harassing" her.
The managers were running out of ways to tell her, the complaints wouldn't go anywhere.
More than once, she was caught talking to coworkers about forming a union... and she was promptly reprimanded for her arrogance!
... and then... Black Friday...
... the day after Thanksgiving...
... the busiest shopping day of the year!
She was warned about the sudden swarm of customers that were about to enter the store...
She knew the risks, when she signed on...
But she was unprepared for the barrage of shoppers, and the dumbass associate got trampled in the middle of the fervor. The post-holiday holiday crowd was so thick, her nearly-dead body wasn't even found or mentioned for three hours; and she was in the middle of the aisle!
It serves her right, though... she was a "troublemaker." Although, if she had died, Walton Mart would have made more than a few million on the "dead peasant" insurance they had taken out on her life... not only did she cost the gracious employer hundreds of thousands of dollars in "worker's compensation" (pronounced, "welfare"), she cost the company several MILLION dollars by not dying! The sheer nerve of her is astounding!

That was five years ago...
... and now, the higher-ups have started to go missing, and a few have turned up horribly mangled; as though they had been put through a meat grinder whole.
Walton Mart Executive, Steven Tyco, was only able to be identified by the titanium shaft that had been put in his leg after a skiing accident; and even the shaft was mangled, almost beyond recognition.
It is yet unknown for sure, whether or not these attacks and disappearances are the work of Friday Black, but her fingerprints have been found in some very incriminating places, where people have gone missing.
If not Friday, then who is responsible for these acts against the benevolent rulers of Walton Mart???
