Reynolds' narrative gradually reveals the impact Portico's parents' impending separation is having on their deeply sensitive son even as he can't fully grasp what's going on around him. Stuntboy, in the Meantime is written and constructed extremely well – it is far from perfect, but comes rather close. With him, along the way, is Zola Brawner, best friend for 163 days and counting. However, as Stuntboy, his job is keeping other superheroes safe, so they can save the world and he definitely has his hands full watching out for the apartment building's various larger-than-life characters. As Portico, he navigates tense interactions with bully Herbert Singletary the Worst, the stress of his ever-fighting parents, and his own anxiety.
