The art style was manga-like (I don't know what is it called 🤔) which made it different from other comics.

but still, liked how that was ended by showing that students themselves couldn't agree on a unified form for an accepted dress code.

What I didn't totally agree with the 'dress code' part of the story. I respected how Jensen was trying to ask for help when he needed it, and he wasn't reluctant-as is the case with every teenager-to changing to a better version of himself. I didn't see his denial to be described 'a bullying-victim' as a sign of cowardliness, because it takes a great deal of courage and strength to view yourself as responsible of your actions. I was moved by his innocence which made him unwilling to see the ugly face of the others who bullied or ignored him.

But here the author-also a woman 😁-chose 'Jensen' a 13 years 'fat' old boy whose dreamy and peaceful character makes him an easy target for bullies. As the graphic novels market is mainly dominated by women, we always find girls as the main characters. What first caught my attention was featuring a boy as a main character. Having read plenty of graphic novels about that topic, I find that one stands out as one of the most graphic novels that touched my heart. Jensen has always played the middle school game one level at a time, but suddenly, someone’s cranked up the difficulty setting.Bullying became the favorite theme for most preteen or YA books. And the pressure’s on even more once the school newspaper’s dynamic duo, Jenny and Akilah, draw Jensen into the whirlwind of school news, social-experiment projects, and behind-the-scenes club drama. But his middle school reality is VERY different– math is hard, getting along with friends is hard… Even finding a partner for the class project is a huge problem when you always get picked last. In his daydreams, Jensen is the biggest hero that ever was, saving the world and his friends on a daily basis.
