Our Day

“Randy Clute's Our Day is a charming slice of life story. The artstyle may look simple, but the storytelling, pacing and panel compositions are very sophisticated. There are also many delightful surprises for the reader, like eating chicken soup with chopsticks.” -Stan Sakai, Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame Inductee and Creator of Usagi Yojimbo Fairy tales have existed since stories were invented. Intended to key listeners in on deeper truths, fairy tales often follow traditional story structure. Set-up, conflict, resolution - and they live happily ever after. But, what, exactly, does happily ever after look like? In the world of Our Day, happily ever after looks like two alligators deeply in love. Like fairy tales, Our Day teaches its readers deeper truths - how to live peaceably, how to respect others, how to find humour in the simple things - but, unlike fairy tales, it does so in a nontraditional manner. Abandoning conflict for joy, the entertainment value of Our Day stems not from questioning how the hero will make it out alive, but, instead, from feeling like you are enjoying a wonderful day with wonderful people. In this way, the books feel less like stories and more like memories.
