For those who are loving Knights of Guinevere, I'm going to take a gamble and suggest checking out an old comic called Cyberella from the 1990s.
Cyberella is 12 issues long and was written by Howard Chaykin and pencilled by Don Cameron. It was published under DC's Helix imprint, which tried to be the sci-fi equivalent of Vertigo. It was originally called Matrix until the movie came out.
Cyberella takes place at some point in the 21st Century where North America has been taken over by Karoshi-Macrocorp through use of their flagship character Cyberella, who started out as a cartoon called Li'l Ella and before that a child actress named Ella Fiscus who was ripped apart in the 1920s.
The focus character is Sunny Winston, a "Level One Blue Nanostacker" with a better perspective on Cyberella than most. When she's arrested for using unauthorized moves in the Cyberella computer game (which KM uses to monitor all citizens) during her interrogation there's an electrical surge from the recent deployment of Wormhole One which turns Sunny INTO Cyberella. And she has no love to give for her owners as she's forced to fight against the literal hell on Earth they've unleashed.
I can't argue that Cyberella and Knights of Guinevere are truly similar, but the idea of a cartoon character mascot openly rebelling against the people who've gutted and exploited her for control of the world which is now a dump is more than just food for thought.
Fair warning Cyberella leans heavily into the Disney bashing to the point the Walt parody died in a hotel room with child prostitutes dressed like Li'l Ella.
