Having become a fan of Brian K. Vaughan's world-building, adventure-building, and pathos-building (lots of building with that guy; he conducts THE clinic on great story-telling) in Saga, I wanted to give Paper Girls a whirl too. So glad I did. I've read volumes 1-3 of the collected books so far, and much like Saga, the story grows more complex and creative as it goes. This tale follows four 12-year-old girls who deliver the newspaper in their Cleveland subdivision and one morning encounter a series of ever more strange beings and objects until they realize two warring factions of time travelers are vying for their attention and assistance. If you enjoyed Saga (so far), then this series will be up your alley.
