Well, I was interested in the book that inspired this comic, but I followed the link to the original [1] which states that the "comic was respectfully removed in March 2012 due to the wishes of the copyright holders of the text."

If this sort of thing is enough to keep you away from the book, note that the author of the book died in 2003, so you can't really blame him.

Please don't let something like that keep you from reading a book. If you don't want them to get your money, get it from a library.

Brilliant! Libraries... I remember them... And much more ethical than the method I was considering.
