Unhappy Returns (aussi connu sous le nom de Team Fortress Comics #2) est une bande dessinée publiée le 4 décembre, 2013. C'est la seconde partie d'une sérié bimestriel de six comics, qui reprend là où Ring of Fired c'était arrêté.
Synopsis
L'histoire commence avec le jeune Saxton Hale et avec sa petite amie Mags, se battant avec des panthères dans la jungle. Saxton jure ne le jamais la quitter et ne réclamera et ne prendra jamais la place de son père à Mann.Co. However, Charles Darling shows up and forcibly takes the panthers, so that he can create his crazy idea, called a "zoo."
The story cuts to an older Mags and Saxton, standing outside a prison. It is revealed that Saxton had been arrested for burning down most of Darling's zoo. Saxton admits that he had planned to ask Darling for help in taking back Mann Co., but his grudge had gotten the best of him. Mags and Saxton leave, with Mags offering to help Saxton retake his company.
The scene changes to Scout and Spy in prison, discussing their imminent hanging. Scout practices his defense, while Spy urges him to take the public defender, as he pulls out most of his teeth. Scout whines at this, remembering the time Soldier was his defense, and an even earlier case in which his defender was, of all things, a lamp. Spy keeps calm and eats a ridiculously tiny dinner, which supposedly consists of miniature Cornish game hens. A fellow inmate tries to murder Spy as he's eating, but the assailant mysteriously winds up dead with a makeshift knife in their back. Scout panics, thinking they are in more trouble now, as the mayor of Teufort comes to visit them. He makes small talk and claims he will miss the mercs, offering Scout a pie with a nail file in it as a joke.
Demoman suits up in a civilian disguise along with Soldier, who is reluctant to pose as a civilian, but eventually agrees. Soldier and Demoman set out to find the courthouse where the trial against Scout and Spy will take place. Soldier attempts to interrogate an old woman, but Demoman is much friendlier and gets the location easily, discovering that the hanging will take place soon. Outside the courthouse, people are clamoring for the mercs' death; some even going as far as hanging dolls which resemble the mercs on a pole with ropes around their necks. The mayor delivers a guilty verdict, but promptly discovers the trial hasn't even started; while the public defender explains that the trial was missing almost every figure of the law needed to hold a fair trial. Soldier volunteers as public defender, not realizing they already have one. He murders Scout's lawyer and demands that Scout be sent to the electric chair for choosing a different lawyer, shedding his disguise and inadvertently ruining Spy's attempt to escape in the process, leading the onlooking jury to demand impromptu hangings of the Soldier and Demoman.
Meanwhile, Miss Pauling explores the library, burning the Administrator's genealogy records while there, as Pyro burns the library's textbooks. The comic cuts to a flashback taking place 5 and a half months before, in which Spy plans to depart from Teufort and lay low after the Administrator's disappearance, having a jet set to depart in 50 minutes. Scout nervously begs Spy to drive him to the Teufort bank, explaining that all of his savings are in the bank. At first, Spy refuses, but reluctantly agrees after Scout proclaims that it would kill his mother to find out that he lost his entire savings. At the bank, Scout reveals that he traded his entire savings in exchange for twelve cubic yards of Tom Jones memorabilia, planning to sell it for a fortune upon his death. Spy remarks that the idea is terrible, claiming that the chances of Tom Jones' death are incredibly slim and that the man is virtually immortal, deciding only to take the lightest pieces of the memorabilia to his car. The final parts of the scene are shown through the bank's security footage, with the police finding Scout and Spy in the vault and locking them within. With the end of the security footage, the mayor concludes the guilt of the mercs.
The execution has begun, and the ropes are about to tighten. The mayor is slightly sympathetic toward the mercs, but claims that they must pay for their lifetimes of ridiculous crimes, such as rezoning a school. These accusations are revealed to be untrue by Miss Pauling, who bursts onto the scene exclaiming that the mercs had to be innocent, because their "crimes" were actually unwittingly done by the mayor himself. She shows everyone a pamphlet she found at the library outlining mayoral duties, and it explains that mayors cannot hang criminals. The mayor realizes that the mercs hadn't even committed the crimes they were accused of, and attempts to pardon them, but the book says he cannot do that either, so Miss Pauling sets them free. The mayor leaves in order to learn what mayors do, and the townspeople follow him. The mercs are now free, and set out to find the others.
Meanwhile, Mags leads Saxton Hale to Darling's house, where it is revealed that she has been working for him all along. Darling presents Saxton with an unseen proposition.
The scene then cuts to the Dzhugdzhur Mountains in Siberia, where Heavy walks up to an old woman's residence to get a box of supplies, despite the stormy weather. She presents him with a slip of paper, stating that he had received a phone call from a distressed Miss Pauling. Heavy proceeds to walk back out into the snow, leaving the note behind.

Anecdotes
- La miniature Cornish Game Hen où le Spy enlève sa fausse dent est une référence à one of his taunts.
- Dans la page 14, the prison Saxton Hale walks out of is called Millhaven. This shares the same name as the prison/base in Left 4 Dead the survivors are sent to in 'The Sacrifice'.
- Dans la page 24, le Scout est entrain de lire 'GHOST. D.A.'. Dans Team Fortress Comics #1 le Demoman regarde une émission de télévision du même nom.
- Le Spy a un peu de barbe grise sous sont masque dans la page 27.
- Le Scout achète des marchandises du chanteur gallois Tom Jones, qui indique qu'il ferait fortune à sa mort. C'est ironique, car Tom est assassiné dans Ring of Fired.
- C'est la première fois que le Demoman est vu sans son bonnet dans les médias officiels.
- Although the RED Scout refers to the events of A Smissmas Story, that comic featured the BLU mercenaries instead. Likewise, the RED Spy is stated in Meet the Spy to be in a relationship with the BLU Scout's mother, but it is implied in this issue that he is in a relationship with the RED Scout's mother; this may be from the A Fate Worse Than Chess comic, where the teams merged into a single one.
- The Soldier shows confusion regarding Miss Pauling's bottled water supplies, implying he may have been drinking from Teufort's water supply. Since the supply has been long contaminated with lead, the Soldier's mental instability is likely to be (at least partially) a result of lead poisoning.
- Scout's broken arms are an allusion to how the Soldier mentioned accidentally breaking them, as stated in Ring of Fired.
- Dans la page 66, a sign can be seen in front of the building Heavy enters that reads "Магазин Джугджур," which loosely translates from Russian to "Dzhugdzhur Shop."
