Overall, I love this series, and I always appreciate a good time travel story as well.
This had so much to love, though the twist with Lancelot toward the end felt like a bit of a disappointment to me, despite it doing a good job of explaining Lance.
Aside from that though, brilliant writing by Brubaker as usual, and surprisingly beautiful art by Martin and Vincente...surprising only in the fact that typically I don't enjoy that style, but it's simply perfect for this series.
So, five stars for the bulk of the story, three stars for the twist.
