yes, the glory of industry and the absurd boon it has brought to man. as much as you meant to shit on it, to anyone without a tinge of socialist sympathy, this is glory.

The greatest invention the book celebrates is an efficient clean emission free engine.

It doesn't really seem worth holding up when it's got all that junk on top.

this is an interesting take of ryands book. i would not say that it is true to the philosophy presented in atlas shrugged or objectivism but the drawing itself is nice

It's 100% true to objectivism and the stupid book.

Thanks! The series I did was actually my personal (and very biased) interpretation of her work.

It's really kind of mesmerizing.
I probably get more out of this image than if I should actually read the book. Should I read the book at some point? I've heard so many mixed things about it.....
Book or no, this image is very cool. Lots of things to contemplate.

I found I disagreed with just about everything in the book, but I'd still recommend it if you feel up to a challenge.

And thank you! This picture is pretty self explanatory, I think... for the most part.

I guess it must be considerably harder to hold up the world (or sometimes even want to) when there's people on it.. very simple, but very powerful.

That was pretty much the premise. Thank you very much!
