Earthling by Aisha Franz

Enjoyed the story. Art style reminded me of Nick drnaso stop motion but I love the way motion is communicated. Also fun to feel like you’re reading someone’s fresh pencil drawings with the smudges. The story is very observational and I enjoy the 3 story lines. But for me it felt a bit to impersonal/birds-eye-view and the stop/motiony art style is not my fav. Thought it worked well to convey emotional distance/coldness between the family and some of the intimate scenes. Picked it up because of the alien earthling theme reminiscent of Earthlings by Sayaka murata.
