". . . landmark series that will reverberate through the comic book world for years to come."

– IGN

“Witty, self-aware dialogue and acute observational humor wink from the pages, and the result is an appealing, lighthearted account of a transitional period of life.”

– New York Times

“O'Malley has crafted a delightfully hybrid comics love story. It's an alt-lit, rock 'n' roll graphic novel with wonderful manga-influenced drawing and a comically mystical plot that manages to capture both the genuine intimacies and serial dishonesties of young love.”

– Publisher’s Weekly

"Stitches together indie-rock attitude, video game logic, and romantic longing . . .a hilarious, idiosyncratic gem."

– Washington Post

“Hilarious and bittersweet, Scott Pilgrim is that rare ‘young adult’ work that’s truly for young adults. Scott’s belated emotional coming-of-age is the centerpiece, but all the characters grow in self-awareness as the series plays out. Friendships falter and reconfigure, love and self-respect are lost and found, and nobody leaves the series quite the same as when they entered.”

– Kirkus Reviews

“Combining slice-of-life romance with an irreverent sense of humor and video game-inspired action, the six-part Scott Pilgrim series of graphic novels is equal parts poignant, thrilling, and absurd . . .”
