    Agents are good and bad. I've had a few but only one at the moment in the US.

    I wouldn't rely on an agent to get you all of your work. I get about 15% of my work from agents - sometimes more, sometimes less. I consider them "supplemental income." They bring things in once in awhile and then you (should) have say regarding fees and acceptance.

    I honestly fail to see how they can justify taking around 30% of the illustrator's money. It's a business and they're gonna take as much as they can, but it really isn't rocket science.
