I don't know the specific main characters as I haven't read this graphic novel. But they could be ordinary people dealing with everyday situations where compliments play a role in their lives.
The 'take it as a compliment graphic novel' could potentially be centered around the concept of self - perception and how one interprets the world around them in terms of compliments. It might show through its illustrations and text different scenarios where the characters are faced with statements that could be seen as compliments and their journey in accepting or rejecting such interpretations. Maybe it has a protagonist who has to learn to see the good in what others say, even if it's not immediately obvious as a compliment.
Since I don't have any information about this specific graphic novel, I can't tell who the main characters are.
We can conclude that straightforwardness is a compliment. In the literature, it was described as following one's wishes and achieving one's goal smoothly. Although the search results didn't clearly indicate that it was a positive term, from the meaning of its description, it emphasized success and smoothness, so it could be considered a positive term.
Being fishy was not a positive term. The word " fishy " was usually used to describe something that seemed reasonable but was actually a trick or deception. It referred to some shady, secretive, and secretive operations, including the loopholes, loopholes, and illogical aspects of the matter. Although there were a few ways to describe the meaning of 'fishy,' it was usually used to refer to shady and hidden operations, not a positive term.
The cadence was a Chinese idiom that described the rise and fall of a voice and the changes in cadence. It was usually used to describe the level of perfection of music, speech, opera, and other performing arts. In literary works, cadence was often used to describe the perseverance and confidence of a character or to describe the ups and downs of things. Therefore, in some cases, cadence can be used as a compliment to describe the excellent qualities of a person or thing. But usually, it was just an idiom used to describe voices and acting skills, not to describe specific things or people.
You can also praise the author's writing style, such as, 'The author's vivid and descriptive language really brought the story to life for me. It was like I was right there in the midst of it all.'
I'm not sure which specific 2019 graphic novel you're referring to. There are so many different ones out there, each with its own set of main characters.
There's no way to tell without having read the '442 graphic novel'.

Maybe there's a strong female lead or a young hero in the story.
