Personally, I think Cthulhu would make an awesome agent.
Your publisher tries to screw you? Your agent drives him to gibbering madness and then EATS HIS SOUL.
And then the rest of the publishers will be afraid to mess with you, and possibly offer propitiating advances and a greater royalty percentage to make sure the rats in the walls don't come after them at night.
This is, of course, assuming that Cthulhu is on your side. But either way, why sign up with a
lesser evil?
