There was a little girl
Who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead.
And when she was good
She was very, very good
But when she was bad
She was horrid!
—Nursery rhyme
Every story needs a villain...
—Gail Swanson
is a webcomic about
psycho lesbian villain protagonist Gail Swanson, who gained superpowers when a mysterious cloaked man zaps her, in a
magical girl story gone wrong. It's about her fights, her triumphs, her losses, her lackeys... And maybe her love life. If she can ever get the guts to ask the girl of her dreams out.
It's also about her
heroic counterpart,
Alpha Bitch Amber Price, who eventually
resigns into her role, and tries to use her powers for good, especially against Gail Swanson.
