"I gave myself a challenge when I created Prodigy. I wanted to write the smartest thing I’ve ever written and at the same time top any action set-pieces I’ve ever managed in the past and I honestly couldn’t be happier with how this has turned out," explained Millar, President and Chief Creative Officer of Millarworld, a subsidiary of Netflix. "Edison Crane is by far the best character I’ve created in my career and I’m delighted that my genius friend Rafa Albuquerque is drawing the comic-book side of all this. He’s really one of the best artists in the world. I can’t wait to share this with everyone. This really is a beaut and we’re incredibly proud of it."

Millarworld was Millar's creator-owned comic book imprint that was acquired by Netflix last August. As part of the acquisition, Millar will continue to create new comic book series that are published in association with Image Comics. The first comic to be published after the Netflix acquisition was The Magic Order this past June which went on to become the best-selling Millarworld title to date.
