Ayn Rand is the latest offering from Blue Water’s Female Force series of comic books.

Written by John Blundell, former director of the Institute for Economic Studies, it makes a good introduction for those unfamiliar with Rand or her works. The publisher says:

The comic book provides an entertaining yet scholarly look at the author of such seminal works as “The Fountainhead” and “Atlas Shrugged.” Even 30 years after her death, her sales of her books continue to sell in the hundreds of thousands each year. Bluewater also worked with the “Ayn Rand Institute” on the comic book.

“When the American economy went into a nose dive recently what did we all turn to? Did we dig out battered old Econ 101 textbooks? Did we turn to the writings of some aged Ivy League professor? NO! Instead we dusted off or repurchased ‘The Fountainhead’ and ‘Atlas Shrugged’ those great classic American novels by Russian immigrant Ayn Rand which deal so brilliantly with the fundamentals of a free and prosperous society of responsible individuals,” said author John Blundell.

The series includes a comic book on Margaret Thatcher, also written by John Blundell.
