The plot content is at times questionable but Manara is undeniably a master of his craft so this is still some great comic booking.

Rape, incest, poor story telling, unhelpful colonialistic native stereotypes. A talented illustrator that only illustrates for the cis-male gaze. What a disappointment.

- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Manara is a God for Graphic Novelists. One does not find a higher exponent of the female form or brusque illustrations.
