Is it worth buying?

I have it and it's an interesting read.  Done in comic book style, complete with caption 'bubbles' when the characters speak.  The artwork is quite good.  Sometimes overlaid with b&w photos.

I think it provides a nice treatment of the human element in both the Z's creation and development program, as well as the entry of Nissan (under the 'Datsun' brand) into the North American marketplace.  The book really brings a lot of the Japan-based Z design/development teams' names into the foreground (whereas we in North America traditionally tend to hear mostly about Mr. K's USA-based exploits).  The graphics may make you think that it's a kind of childish treatment of the history, but it's not.  Lots of interesting parts of the 'backstory' emerge.  As a Canadian, I particularly enjoyed the coverage of the cold-weather development work that was done with a set of pre-production Z's out of the Brasso Datsun (sorry, 'Nissan') dealership in Calgary, Alberta.

Bonus:  If you buy it, this will probably become the only book in your library that reads from back to front.

It's a comic book interpretation of historical facts.  Fun to read but far from an historical document.  Yes, buy it for your collection.
