If you don’t know about Scott Pilgrim by now, you are seriously missing out. The original graphic novel series published by Oni Press and written/drawn by Bryan Lee O’Malley stars the title character who meets the girl of his dreams (literally), Ramona Flowers, but in order to date her he has to defeat her 7 evil ex-boyfriends in one on one combat! It’s written in a fun yet humanly touching way, jam packed with action and video game references galore. The series is 6 volumes total (around 250 pages each with an $11.99 price tag) with volume 6, entitled Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour set to debut July 20, 2010 (the week of San Diego Comic Con)!
Fans can exhale a sigh of relief knowing that the final chapter of the Scott Pilgrim saga will be readable before the movie debuts on August 13, 2010. The film, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, stars Michael Cera (of Arrested Development and Superbad fame) in the title role, as well as Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Ramona, and even the newly appointed Captain America, Chris Evans, as one of the seven evil ex-boyfriends Scott faces off against! Check out this teaser poster for the movie:
