The Creature in My House plays around with some interesting themes but doesn’t really make good on their potential. Even for a short story, the pacing is too fast and its more interesting aspects and questions are glossed over. In place of such exploration, there are silly moments that, though good at building character, do little for the essentials of a short story. Still, the artwork and transitons are pretty neat, and the prose itself is breezy and doesn’t dwell on the unimportant. Worth checking out for its silliness and visuals, but don’t expect the story to stick or stir up too much.
