* OverlordJr: Louis is the Doctor's son and seems to work as a front man for the [[TheSyndicate Cavellos]] at times. However, he's a bit of an odd version of this trope as he doesn't really seem evil so much as apathetic towards what his father does. He seems more interested in [[{{Casanova}} dating hot women]] than any evil schemes, though he is cooperative and does what his father tells him to do. It is unclear whether or not the Doctor plans on having Louis take over for him. In fact, it is unclear whether or not [[spoiler:the Doctor ''[[HumanoidAbomination can even die]]''.]]

The comic is ongoing, updating sporadically - whenever hiruda (the writer/artist) has time. At the moment, seven chapters have been finished and Chapter 8 is under way. It went through substantial ArtEvolution and hiruda has announced plans to redo the first chapter in acknowledgement of this. The genre could be described as three parts criminal fiction, two parts psychological thriller, one part science fiction, and one part SliceOfLife. It has a fast-paced plot, entertaining characters, and loads of visually pleasing official art. Also has a character list [[http://rps.smackjeeves.com/characters/ here]]. It has MultipleDemographicAppeal and NeedsMoreLove.
