Since I am not wed to any particualr type of artwork for graphic works I am free to look at each work and decide if the art matches, for me, the story. In this case, I think it did. Everything here seems, for lack of a better word, subtle. The humor is subtle, the action, such as it is, is understated, and the artwork matches that tone.
I was torn between how to rate this. I did enjoy it but I wasn't just turning pages with a frantic desire to see what happens next. Part of that is the nature of the story, a rather regular person in slightly less regular, but not earth-shattering, situations. So I was more positive than I might have been if this had been aiming for suspense and tension.
I would recommend this to readers who like stories without a lot of hyperbole in either characterization or plot. This doesn't leave or world behind but rather shows a different part of it.
