2.0

The concept for this story was really fascinating. However, I think it was a movie made into a graphic novel, and it didn't translate well. There were moments that were confusing or supposed to be funny but werent because it needed the movie aspect and not a drawn one.

I also don't like it when shows play with history and drastically change it, especially when it comes to kids things.
They had lord Cromwell die at the end, and that didn't happen in real life.
I'm an historian, so things like that matter to me.

Unfortunately, it probably accurately described Cromwell's fanatic religiousity. As a Christian, it was painful to read, but it's time Christians face the issues we've created rather than telling an alternate story. (It's also why telling the truth of history, despite it being a work of fiction, is so important).
