 The sense that Anarky is appreciated by certain fans is one shared by Alan Grant , who noted that the character 's stories routinely generated more reader mail than any other he wrote . Commenting on the popularity of the Anarky series , Grant acknowledged the failure of the series , but pointed out that it was very popular among some readers : " It wasn 't terribly popular in the States , although I received quite a few letters ( especially from philosophy students ) saying the comic had changed their entire mindset . But Anarky was very popular in South America , where people have had a long and painful taste of totalitarianism , in a way the US is just entering . "
