A decade and a half later, Scott Pilgrim is still taking on the world. The New York Times bestselling series and basis for the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is now available in three new softcover editions! This first compendium collects both Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World color edition story pages in one massive volume for easier bingeing. Never leave your house again! Scott Pilgrim wants Ramona Flowers to be his girlfriend. However, she's got baggage in the form of seven evil exes, all of whom Scott must defeat to win her heart! The first two are Matthew Patel (and his demon hipster girls) and Lucas Lee (movie star famous for... skateboarding?). Can Scott focus long enough to take them out?

After knowing so much about it through seeing the game, the movie I'd seen many times, reading the first volume a couple times when I was younger and general popular osmosis, I thought I had Scott Pilgrim pinned but it was better than my expectations led me to believe. Though not as flashy and entertaining as other mediums, this had much better characters, a much better set up and deeper character art with great worldbuilding that ages this into a time capsule that is only surpassed by the AVGN in how well it's able to capture early 2000's internet nerd culture (AVGN even only had a specific slice of that while Scott is more all-around). I'm surprised by the all the gay representation in it and wonder what everyone else thinks of it. I read the colorized version and didn't think anything looked out of place. There was nothing too experimental like Jojo's but I imagine it made it easier to read. It was very well paced and seemed to hit a sweet spot for what it was trying to do.
