The Dilbert of Risk and Assurance?

WeDo has published a comic strip featuring a revenue assurance manager dressed like Wonder Woman and a fraud manager who is a ninja.

Commsrisk can be very serious, just like risk management and business assurance. So it is a relief to see one vendor has decided to promote the lighter side of work. Many of us love the Dilbert cartoons of Scott Adams, and now it seems WeDo has started their own comic strip. The WeDo strip features the daily exploits of a fraud manager and a revenue assurance team leader much like those we find working in telcos, except that one is a ninja and the other is dressed like a superhero! Check out the first strip here.

Judging from the appearance of their new comics page WeDo must intend to publish more strips featuring “the (almost) real adventures of a fraud management department”. I wonder whether the new cartoons will be released on a weekly or a monthly basis. Either way, I look forward to enjoying them.
