Scott Pilgrim Vol 1 Scott Pilgrim Precious Little Life Bryan Lee O'Malley Books
These are the first graphic novels I've ever read. My general problem with graphic novels is that you can read through one in an hour or two. It hardly seems worth the price when you can get some 1000-page pulp fiction for half the cost. That said, Scott Pilgrim is definitely worth it. It's funny, the characters are engaging, the artwork is a significant part of the story, and O'Malley is able to address some really significant relational issues in a way that is lighthearted without being flippant.The color versions seem worth the price. I don't think I'd enjoy them nearly as much in black and white.
My solution to how quickly you can read through one of these was to only read a chapter or two over coffee in the morning. It turned into my favorite part of the day (well, it probably already was; coffee is coffee). Going to sleep at night, I'd be excited to wake up and read a bit more.

Scott Pilgrim Vol 1 Scott Pilgrim Precious Little Life Bryan Lee O'Malley Books Reviews
Bryan O'Malley's run pokes fun at the banalities of life while making you feel like a twenty something kid again. The art is charming and original (even if you read Japanese comics). The diverse cast of characters are unique archetypes that keep you hoping they will come back in every panel. May slightly confuse those unfamiliar with videogame pop-culture, but not enough to distract one from the story. My wife especially loved the interlude short stories. Scott Pilgrim will leave you wishing for more once you've completed this six volume series.
Since most people that read this edition of Scott Pilgrim will already be familiar with the story, I'm going to review what color does for the story and a bit about the added bonus features.
In some ways I'm a traditionalist and I don't really like the trend of coloring black and white comics as it does take a bit away from how the story was originally presented. In the case of Scott Pilgrim, the black and white at times felt perfect for the story as it give it a magnaesque vibe to it that fit well with the storyline. But...at the same time as the series and characters progressed the black and white felt limiting, as we talked about the changes in Ramona's hair color and the fight scenes that shaped the characters. So I am glad to have a chance to read the colorized version of the novel as it brings an added vibrancy and depth to Bryan's work. The colors help make the character come to life and it feels like a good animated Saturday morning cartoon, like Animaniacs, which works well with the story. In particular the color enhances the band and battle scenes, making a good black and white drawing, suddenly feel animated. My favorite scenes in color--Scott's battle sequence with matthew Patel and the demon girls. The color just brings so much to that scene, shadows and highlights that just make things pop. So despite my unease the color really does help create a more vibrant story.
This volume also includes some bonus content that reveals the life of Scott Pilgrim, before he became Scott Pilgrim. Bryan shares with us some of his influences, such as the title of a band's song, friends and family that the characters and story were based upon, and how he sold the idea to Oni to create this series of graphic novels. In addition, Bryan shares some more personal reflections such as the feelings of the rather low key release date (due to the publishing of the book being pushed back) as well his ideas and depictions of how the characters evolved as he drew them (always one of my favorite things to see.)
In short if you're a fan of Scott Pilgrim then you'll definitely want to add this book to your collection. And if you aren't a fan of Scott Pilgrim or never read it before, give this book a try in its new colorized version. You won't regret it. 5 out of 5 stars.
ok, first off, I want to say that I read the entire series around ten times and I'm STILL not getting sick of it. I make cartoons on YouTube (TheOdd1sOut) and I'm just sitting on my couch, and after a few pages, I'm just like...
AGGGGGHHHHHGGGHHHPLIIIIIIKHHHHGHHBLARGGARGGG
(deep breath)...........
AGGGHGGGARLLLLLOBBBLLARGBARGKLLLLE
I mean, seriously, it's just like making political debates exciting. everyone thought it was impossible until donald Trump and Hillary Clinton came along. this time, It's Bryan O'malley. anyway, this reviews getting really long, and the headline said I was going to say a few jokes.

They are actually my terrible pick up lines I use.
1. hey, is your body from McDonalds? cause i'm lovin it.
2. baby, i'm no weatherman, but you can expect a few inches tonight.
3. do you work at Subway? cause you're givin me a foot long.
...Yeah, I have a ton of slap marks on my face from when I actually said that to girls.
