Indeed it is.  Part of her views are kind of nutty but overall I have to like her.  She is both an atheist and a capitalist, like me so I cant help being sympathetic.  However I hate how her readers remain total aholes for a week after reading her works.  Also I dont like the overly virtous protagonists and overly stupid enemies.  Its too one dimention for my taste.  In my crappy comics that make political and philosophical points I always make things to hate about the "good" guys and things to like about the "bad" guys.
