Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life


Canadian author/artist Bryan Lee O'Malley has won over graphic novel fans and phobes alike with this hilarious and sweet series. 23-year-old Toronto slacker Scott Pilgrim has met the girl of his dreams… literally; she's been using his subconscious as a shortcut on her delivery route. To date her he must fight her seven evil ex-boyfriends. But how much will this disrupt his precious little life of hanging out, practicing with his hard rock band, and the girl he's already chastely dating? A big part of the fun comes from how Scott and his friends react to kung fu fights, videogame elements, and outright wackiness in their otherwise realistic twentysomething lives. -- János
