Because, though villains may never win, they sure have more fun, hatching master plans for world domination, smoothing their dastardly tights.

 Cool Kids Book !!! June 16, 2008
I bought this book knowing it was targeted for kids. I would say young males within the ages of 11-15 would be entertained by this book. Good graphic layout makes it interesting reading and keeps the attention of your young budding doctor evil. It reads much like a "How to Guide -to being a Comic Book Super Villian." So parent's should'nt fret as the information is humorous and entertaining.
Nice March 10, 2008
This is an awesome gag gift for anyone you know that is completely maniacle (woah spell check on that word). Thanks.
Goofy and entertaining January 27, 2008
Practice your evil villain laugh (mwuh-ha-ha-ha!) and redecorate that dungeon! This handy dandy self-help book for the world-conquering super-villain or evil warlord to be perfect for reminding one of the joys inherent in a career of crime and villainy. Need advice on how to outfit your Legions of Doom? Don't think the name Lord Milquetoast quite cuts it? This little gem has all the advice you'll need before you set out to conquer the world (or province, or nation, or universe ... whatever).
Goofy. Funny. Amusing illustrations.
What more could one want?
Campy fun for the Marvel Comics set December 2, 2007
Ever notice how super villians always have the best one liners! If you would like to learn the skills to take over the world, this is the book for you. It contains helpful tips on coming up with a name, a catch phrase, and hatching your diabolical plan. What more could an up and coming villian need. An evil laugh all the way through!
 Mildly Amusing & Entertaining August 18, 2007
I wasn't sure what I was getting after I ordered this book. It's in hardback and cute but not applicable at all. You see, I dream of being an evil overlord like Ming the Merciless or Dr. Victor Von Doom. I thought I'd learn how to go about it but the book is all tongue-in-cheek. Sadly I'm not. 8^) While not a sociopath, I am a psychopath in that I aspire to be a ruthless dictator and hoped this book might give me some food for thought.
The price is right for entertainment. Easy to read. H*ll I read it while riding on a business trip with some co-workers. They were sorely disappointed too as they all wanted to be my evil henchmen and kill me off once I had achieved the real power and success I dreamt of.
It's entertaining, amusing, thoughtful and fun to read but nothing in here is usable. I'll just have to stick with the Art of War, The Art of Warfare, the Prince and 48 Laws of Power....for now.
