I'm hard-pressed to think of a fictional character whose backstory I want LESS than Malcolm Merlyn's, but here we are.
Even if I DID want more of Merlyn's backstory, this barely ties back into Arrow continuity? And it's cliche and culturally appropriative?
But also, to be clear, I DO NOT want more of Merlyn's backstory.

Not really relevant to the Arrow lore so I felt it was a bit pointless and I got really boredÂ

I thought it was really cool reading a book based on a character from a show and the actor is the author of the book. I had fun reading it and learned a few things I didn't know before.

Really like this story, but keep wondering if I might like it better with a slightly stronger artist delivering it.

Originally released as webcomics, when collected into this format, you can kind of still tell. There are narrative breaks within chapters, and a little bit of repetition. The artwork's accessibly good, and the story fleshes out the character of Malcolm Merlyn in a really interesting way. Good for fans of the show, should be read in one sitting.
