That last panel is what it looks like when Binky’s been punched in the guy harder than Strongman could ever manage, I’d reckon. Dude has a hell of a poker face. It hurts us too, man. It hurts us too.
This one page has opened up a layer cake of issues.
1) this guy’s been in 3 major encounters, suggesting the dark circus is not staffed to the point of expendability as implied.
2) Unless they didn’t check at all, let’s assume the “cyanide” was at least a knock-out drug of sorts. Make them seem dead long enough to leave them for clean up. Timing of that needs to be looked into b/c SOMEbody should have reported bodies missing at the scene or the morgue.
3) Oats has been outed; Binky could cut that cord quickly or play it cool and control her information. Maybe turn the watcher into the watched.
I think it goes further than that. Soon as the mole theory was mentioned, I figured the smart way to do it would be to get one person who helps service the clown cars to install a wiretap in every car.
I think Binky’s just figured out that the whole Shadow Circus is some kind of megacorporate ploy to monetize the Clown Corps, and superhero/supervillain fights in general.
I think McBell is going to be Heist Clown by the end. Classic prison stripes and everything.
He fucked up….
Oops, the mole is flushed.
Well. Man’s shutting up skills are about on par with his shooting skills. That mole subplot got exposed much earlier than I anticipated, I will say.
hey! he could have shut up if he was trying!
Better now than some dumb someone accuses her as a mole, but no one believes them until the last minute plot

Why does no one lawyer up in these things?
Welp. Evil!McBoss was more concerned about these two being captured then any of the generals. Now we know why. Dude knows his people.
Way to blow the story open, chumps. Shoulda kept your mouth shut. Now… where to next?
Um, is it just or does anyone else get the feeling there was no cyanide?
