What I love is how Hutchins manages to take a concept that could be confusing for young readers—how and why clocks don’t always match—and turns it into a playful mystery. The illustrations are classic Hutchins: clean, engaging, and full of little visual details that make rereading a treat. The pacing is light, the humor gentle, and the payoff at the end is just the right kind of satisfying.

What truly sets "So-Called Living" apart is its art. The comic is a visual feast, with full-color illustrations that bring Jack and his world to life with a vibrancy that leaps off the page. The artistry is reminiscent of a supernatural "Friends" ensemble, where each character, from werewolves to surprisingly menacing bunnies, is rendered with detail and expressiveness that adds depth to the storytelling
