Not sure why I am reading this, but I will give it a shot.
I'd heard OF this and knew it's sort of considered the first superhero/secret identity story, but I didn't really know what it was. It was weird to read something so anti-French revolution. (I mean, sure, the Reign of Terror maybe went too far but also, eat the rich.) Anyway, it's a bit...much, but overall I had fun with it. Now I need to check out the Scarlet Pimpernel musical obv.
