How to Succeed in Evil is not a self-help page for the maladjusted. It it is the story of Edwin Windsor, Evil Efficiency Consultant. He's like Arthur Andersen for Supervillains.

The passions that move you and I are not unknown to Edwin Windsor. As he tries to recreate the world in a way that is more efficient, sensible and profitable, Edwin leads people around by his emotions.
He sees the pieces of the puzzle and is no longer content to watch other people fumble around trying to make a edge piece fit in the middle.
The first issue is drawn and will be printed soon. I promise. Final pencils are finished today (June 14th) and we’re going to be shopping a digital comp of the book around HeroesCon and to a number of publishers.
I’ve also found a number of interesting on-demand options. And I’m determining what kind of quanties you need to run for offset printing to make financial sense. (I’m getting a fast and furious education.)
So be patient. The book is drawn. We’re just trying to figure out how the best way to get it into people’s hands. And the best way to grow and sustain this idea for many issues to come.
