Product Description

Venus, a global computer intelligence gone mad, is a heartbeat away from enslaving every mind on Earth. But Venus hasn`t counted on her mortal enemy, Martha Washington, who captains a mission to observe the collision with a massive asteroid whose secrets may provide the key to Venus` destruction --- and the very key to Creation itself! Frank Miller and Dave Gibbons, along with Angus McKie, have produced another science-fiction tour-de-force of epic magnitude.

4.0 out of 5 stars another libertaran graphic novel from Miller, May 27, 2001

By	woodrow locksley "tdlockwood" (lINCOLN NE) - See all my reviews

Frank Miller has always been skeptical about paternalistic ideologies of left and right and shows it again in this graphic novel. Martha Washington is forced to confront a virtually human super computer which simply wants to perfect what it perceives to be a flaw humanity. Its utopia would,of course, reduce people into soulless robots who have no free will and Martha, long an independently minded sort, leads the fight. It is quality entertainment from Miller and Gibbons.
