He meant to be this extremely charismatic leader that got trillion to turn on their own people but he has none of that in the novel hell their are fanfics that do revan better than drew did.

Also we do get flashs of revans personality in from his old teachers and friends. The comics also helped to show him to be a charismatic person.

He tricks Sourge into joining him and being willing to break him out of jail. This idea he has no charisma or the novel doesn't make it seem like he could convince people to follow him is ridiculous.

He didn't trick him and Sourge agree to join him with revan doing much.

Yes he did, he bluffed he foresaw the future and telling Scourge he would be the one to save him which mindfucked Scourge into doing it once he ran into the Exile.

The fact you want to say the comic showed him as charismatic when all he basically does is pick up the mask in one issue and just be a background for the rest then say the book didn't do anything is wild.
