Scott Pilgrim Vol 4 Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together Bryan Lee O'Malley Books
Okay so I DO like Scott Pilgrim, but the only reason I bought this book is because I wanted to replace my roommate's copy. Why you ask? Because I ruined his copy on accident. How you ask? Because I knocked it into a trashcan full of blood and spit. How did I knock it in you ask? Because I was trying too hard to pet my cat when he walked in arm's reach (he didn't like pets so he ran). Why was the trashcan filled with blood you ask? Because I had just gotten my wisdom teeth out, and the plasma-saliva was flowing from my head like a fountain, so I was drooled it into a trashcan sitting next to me.So the scene is me, reading Volume 4 of Scott Pilgrim, drunk on painkillers from the surgery, laying on the couch snuggled up to a sloshy trashcan brimming with spitblood when my cat walks by lookin' soft as heck. I reach out to graze my fingers against his silken sides. Suddenly, he recoils away from my embrace, because he hates love. My heart torn, I reach out further in a vain attempt at reconciliation, and tip Volume 4 of Scott Pilgrim into the trashcan, where it absorbs all of the plasma, saliva and other bodily fluids immediately. End scene as I try to buy another copy on Amazon but mistakenly purchase new blinds instead.

Scott Pilgrim Vol 4 Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together Bryan Lee O'Malley Books Reviews
I'm impressed by this one volume of Scott Pilgrim than I was by the entire movie.
I loved the movie and made it a point to eventually get all 6 books that they cull the movie from, often directly. Wonderful fun. I'm not sure I'd ever say one of the 6 is better or worse than the others. They're more like different volumes of one book.
The first three Scott Pilgrim books have shown that he is immature, thoughtless and sometimes mean. Sure, he's charming and funny, but is that enough to balance out his laziness, selfishness and ignorance? That depends on the reader.
Deep thought aside, this book is hilarious and as fun as it's predecessors. Mixing comic books, kung-fu movies, music videos, and especially video games, it truly makes them into a pure fun mixture.
In this one, Scott fights another of Ramona's evil exes. Not an evil ex-boyfriend, though. to find out what that means, you'll have to read it!
This is a great book, funny, well-written with great graphics. The video game themes are integrated in a very clever way, and it is a fun read. If you liked the movie (which is great, by the way), you will definitely like this book. For fans of graphic novels or video games, you will love this book.
For parents I would not recommend this book for those under the age of 14 due to some adult content (some references to sex). I am an educator and I would not allow students to read this unless they were in high school (9th grade or higher).
First of all, I'd like to recommend the entire Scott Pilgrim saga. But I chose to only review this volume in particular because, in my opinion, it is the best one in the series. It may not be as charming as the first volume but it is the one that takes Scott on an emotional trip just as much as a physical one. What I mean to say is that the book puts Scott in tons of peril not only because of the 4th evil exe he has to fight but also because of his inner flaws and shaky past coming back to trouble him. In the end he grows as a character and so does Ramona, and everything turns out honky dory despite all their troubles and flaws. For me, this is O'Malley's biggest step in his saga and he does it exceptionally well. There are more reasons to enjoy this volume, but that's for you to figure out.
IN SHORT IT'S THE BEST IN THE SERIES BECAUSE IT IS BOTH EPIC AND AMBITIOUS IN IT'S NARRATIVE BUT WHAT MAKES IT THE BEST IS THAT O'MALLEY PULLS IT ALL OFF VERY WELL.
Once upon a time, a comic artist named Bryan Lee O'Malley did a comic series around a central character named Scott Pilgrim. That comic series got made into a movie called Scott Pilgrim Vs The World. The movie was not bad, but was definitely worth seeing if only because it made me want to read the comic series it was based on. And I'm here now to tell you that O'Malley's original series is awesome. It's also almost impossible to describe, but I'll give it my best shot and say it's original, it's funny, it's way surreal, and it's probably unlike anything you've ever read.
On the surface, the plot arc of the six-volume series is centered around Scott Pilgrim, a twenty-something game-playing slacker in a Canadian garage band, who meets the girl of his dreams (literally) and finds he must defeat her seven evil ex-es if he wants to date her. But like an iceberg, the surface only hints at everything that lies beneath.
Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together is the fourth volume in the series. The cast of returning characters include
Scott Pilgrim, a wide-eyed and likeable but perpetually clueless 23-year-old slacker who's in a garage band called Sex Bob-omb. ("How are you and Ramona doing? Have you said the L-word yet?" "The L-word? You mean... lesbian?" "Uh... no. The other L-word.")
Ramona Flowers, a roller-blading delivery girl for .ca and the girl of Scott's dreams. ("You and _her_?!" "Oh, relax. It was a phase.")
Knives Chau, his 17-year-old Chinese former sort-of girlfriend who still has a major crush on him. ("I've kissed the lips that've kissed you!!!")
Wallace Wells, his cool but boy-crazy gay roommate. ("Let's be friends based on mutual hate.")
Stephen Stills, lead guitarist in the band. ("Do you always refer to him by his full name?" - "Who? Stephen Stills? Yes.")
Kim Pine, the band's drummer and Scott's ex-girlfriend from high school. ("Scott, if your life had a face, I would punch it. I would punch your life in the face.")
Young Neil Nordegraf, Stephen Still's roommate and the band's biggest fan. ("What do you play?" "Um... nothing, I just live here.")
Comeau, who knows everyone. ("Well, I wouldn't say _everyone_, but yeah, I guess.")
Julie Powers, Stephen Stills' on-again/off-again but always bitchy girlfriend. ("That song is about me, people! He thinks I'm a total bitch and a half!" "You mean she doesn't _know_?")
Stacey Pilgrim, Scott's younger sister. ("She's Chinese? Wait till Mom hears about this!")
And in this volume we meet Lisa Miller, Scott's might-have-been girlfriend from high school, and last but not least, Roxanne Richter, a blonde half-ninja and the fourth of Ramona's evil ex-es to challenge Scott Pilgrim. ("So I want to cut off his stupid head. What's the problem?")
As a special treat, the opening chapter of this volume is in full color.
Just read it. You'll be hooked.
I highly recommend this book (and the entire series) to anyone who appreciates a comic series with a unique visual style, engaging characters, the kind of surreal world we only wish we could live in, and just a great fun read.
