This graphic novel is gorgeously drawn, but that's really it only strength. It changes the characters from male to female, but in a way that feels like incredibly performative feminism. They also keep the majority of the 1907 dialogue and prose, but occasionally interject 2017 banter, which just feels discordant. In the end, the changes they made detract heavily from the original story
