ANARKY THE COMIC BOOK SERIES AND DC COMICS

Kudos to Alan Grant and DC Comic Books. The Anarky series was bold, brave, and valuable. I enjoyed each of the four issues, yet, I was worried how Mr. Grant would end the series -- knowing that Batman "had" to win. My concern was, how could the values Anarky represented maintain their credibility? Mr. Grant did a beautiful job of handling this. With Anarky escaping from Batman, all Neo-Tech values hold. A beautiful ending -- also perfectly set up for another value generating series: "Sorry, Batman. But until they all learn to choose for themselves -- the people need me."

Comic books are a unique, powerful, and subversive way to communicate Neo-Tech values. It was incredibly brave and farsighted of DC Comics to run this series. In all four issues, the establishment was given a black eye and a bloody nose. In the last issue, democracy -- today's hallowed form of government -- was slammed. Quoted from page 4: "Democracy is tyranny of the minority." ...Pretty darn brave of DC Comics.

Hope to see the Anarky series continued or to see a new Neo-Tech based series.

Excellent job Mr. Grant and DC Comics.
