 In the years following the Anarky publications of the late 1990s , more receptive critiques have been offered . In assessing the presentation of anarchist philosophy in fiction , Mark <unk> , the director for the Centre for Labour Studies from Simon Fraser University , cited Anarky as an example of the favorable treatment anarchist philosophy has occasionally received in mainstream comic books . <unk> took particular note of quotations derived from the dialogue in " Anarky in Gotham City " story , in which Batman speaks positively of Anarky 's intentions . Following the cancellation of the ongoing series , Roderick T. Long , an anarchist / libertarian political commentator and Senior Scholar at the Ludwig von Mises Institute , praised Anarky as " an impressive voice for liberty in today 's comics " . Margaret Killjoy 's examination of anarchist fiction , <unk> & <unk> , afforded Alan Grant and Anarky brief mention . Explaining the relationship Grant had with anarchism , Killjoy reviewed the characters ' early incarnations as " quite wonderful . "
