Interesting to see his life from a historical perspective. A small peak into the explosion of religious sects in the colonies and his printing business. The writing style and tone are dry by today's standards and I don't feel I ever got to know how he thinks.

Great graphic novel. Some tech is dated but not so much it impacts the story. I read this during the COVID crisis while armed protesters were marching on government buildings so it was a little chilling.

Very interesting for a look into the history of the the web's creation and its spread. The latter chapters haven't aged well. Overly optimistic (where is the semantic web these days?) and a little sad when looking at how the web has influenced society through social media.
