Look at this great libertarian graphic novel by L.Neil Smith: The Probability Broach

You can read it free online at the link below, and I hope many will order a copy to support the author/artist. MAJOR CAVEAT: The 2nd page is graphically gruesome, NOT for those of tender sensibility. This novel deals with VERY MEAN Statists.
On the bright side it depicts a respectful, free society of individualists living in a minarchy and taking responsibility to keep it free. Lots of insider libertarian humor, fun characters and details.

Better than ever!
With Scott Bieser's assist, it's a old favorite made new again.

Sic Semper Tyrannis
Fascinating
Thanks.
Is this the same Neil Smith the playwrite?
or another dude?
He's a very prolific sci fi writer and libertarian
activist. Here's his website:

For such a talented artist
he can't design a website to save his life. I would think he'd want to put a better face on his work than something out of Frontpage.
No, Smith is the writer; Bieser is the
artist. It might be interesting to see his website; I don't know it, but the publisher's site http://www.bigheadpress.com/ has a lot of info and pictures on Smith, Beiser, and other comics serialized on the site, several libertarian in theme.
Great book!
I actually read both The Probability Broach and The American Zone several years ago and it is one of my favorite books. I highly recommend it to everyone.
Read the book about 25 years
Read the book about 25 years ago. Remember it as fasinating.
It's held up well; some revising
brought it up to date.
