I've always thought that the biography of Nestor Makhno could make a great action movie (or these days, streaming miniseries), and this graphic novel does a pretty good job of showing the benefits and pitfalls of that treatment of his life, work, and adventures. Unfortunately, I was kind of looking for more of a graphical history than an action adventure. For instance, I hoped to find out more about pretty-boy anarchist Fedir Shchus or Green Otaman Nykyfor Hryhoriv (and his old-west style end). Apart from the historicity, it would have been nice if even the fictionalized composite characters had been developed more. This is still a fun read, and I can see that illustrator Roberto Zaghi consulted the Osprey Publishing's Uniforms of the Russian Civil War books.
