Summary:

Scott Pilgrim does a pretty good job of making his life perfect. He's in a band, lives with a friend, and even has a high school girlfriend. But as we all know, things aren't always as they appear. Scott is still reeling from a big breakup and hasn't had a serious relationship since then.

But when he crosses paths with a girl named Ramona Flowers, he suddenly wants more. He wants her in his life, even if that means battling her seven evil ex-boyfriends. That's not too unusual, right?

Volume 3

It's time to dive back into this series! I had planned on reading it all before the new Netflix series dropped. Since that happened almost a month ago (at the time of writing this), I failed miserably with that goal.

It's hard to believe that Envy broke Scott's heart only a year and a half ago. It feels like it would have been longer, but I guess that just shows how much can change in a year, especially when you're that age.

The fight with Todd did not go as expected (my expectations were set by the movie, obviously). I think, in a way, I liked this version better? The movie version was more compact, so I understand why they did things that way. But this one was more layered and complex.

Long story short – fans should absolutely be reading this series, as there's so much more to find within the pages.

Volume 4

It's always a bit surprising when a series does a time jump, no matter how short. That said, it often also leaves room for more character development and growth. So I was happy to see that happen in Scott Pilgrim Vol. 4.

Scott has been dealing with a lot of changes in his life. First, there's the Knives thing. Then Ramona. Now, the evil exes plot, a few moving subplots, etc. It's a lot, so you can see how little things slip through the cracks.

I'm still really enjoying this series, though I think the previous volume had better highs and lows. There are a few surprises in this volume, though, that help make it more compelling. However, a few of those moments raise more questions than they answer.

Highlights:
Humor
Romantic Plot (and Evil Exes)
Musical Battles and More
