Comic artist Frank Miller—famous for the Batman "Dark Knight" series, Daredevil series, and Ronin series—has stated that he owes a creative debt to Ayn Rand. He credits Rand’s book, The Romantic Manifesto as having helped him to define the nature of the literary hero and the legitimacy of heroic fiction. In such works as Martha Washington Goes to War, Miller praises Rand for her focus on issues of human choice, of "competence and incompetence, courage and cowardice."
