Why Are You Like This?: An ArtbyMoga Comic Collection by Meg Adams is currently scheduled for release on March 7 2023. Finally, comics that answer life’s most pressing questions: Is my partner actually upset or just hangry? Whose turn is it to remember the reusable shopping bags? Is it appropriate to put up Halloween décor two months in advance? (Spoiler alert: Yes. Yes, it is.) “Opposites attract” has never rung truer when it comes to vivacious extrovert Meg and her level-headed introvert husband, Carson. Carson makes his coffee with only the finest locally roasted beans; Meg microwaves two-day-old joe. Carson is reserved and rarely opens up to friends; Meg ensures everyone in her life—including her mailman—knows about her hemorrhoid. From the joys of marrying your best friend to the bizarre musings of a twelve-pound pup to the humor and heartbreak of anxiety, Meg’s all-too-relatable comics leave no stone unturned. Dorky and downright hilarious, this book explores what it means to make fun of oneself and find laughter in the little things.
Why Are You Like This? is a fun collection of short comics that explores life and the adulthood none of us were ready for (honestly- no one is ever ready). I have seen some of the artist's work before, so I already knew the style of artwork and humor before opening the book, and I was greeted by exactly what I was expecting. The book was funny and relatable, and the art style was consistent and heightened the intent and humor of each page. If you like the artist and their style this is a book you will enjoy. If you are an adult, new or otherwise, or pretending to be an adult there will be at least some aspects of this book you will relate to and find amusing.
