I think this went a little too quickly - there were parts of the story I wanted more fleshed out. But it was super creative with incredible artwork, which you always get from Dan Santat.

A gorgeous graphic novel that tells the heartwarming and humorous story of how various weird and different characters find meaning and family in a world full of loss and danger.
Dan Santat's artwork is stunning and really adds depth and that extra little something to the beautiful story of The Aquanaut.
The time jumps are a bit jarring and threw me but condensing a story such as this into a short graphic novel; such sudden jumps are to be expected.
Overall a lovely read.

Fantastic heartfelt story with beautiful art and powerful yet believable characters. This is my jam!
VERY cool, loved the premise and the depth of the story. The pacing was a little off and some important details felt not quite fleshed out to me. Really loved the Aquanaut though, and illustrations were awesome.
Dan’s emotional honesty and connection come through organically in the story. Great visuals.
