Comic titled 'WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE LET OUR KIDS READ ATLAS SHRUGGED.' A mother with reddish hair and glasses tells her daughter, 'Sally, clean your room.' Sally, a young orange-haired girl in a pink shirt clutching her hands and looking defiant, responds, 'Who is John Galt?' — the famous catchphrase from Ayn Rand's novel, here used to refuse a chore. Votey: a close-up of the mother's exasperated face as she says, 'Now I need you to listen to a 4-hour monologue,' referencing John Galt's marathon radio speech in the book.
