Was worried this movie's hype train would be it's demise. Wrong. They somehow managed to fix all 3 Spider Man franchises in one movie . I was super excited to see the return of Tobey and Andrew, although I do wish they would've been able to keep it a surprise. Unfortunately, that has proven time and time again to be very difficult to do in this day and age. I don't hold that against them. It was still a very awesome aspect of the movie. Most of the Raimi villains' actors seemed to slip right back into character, even after all these years. It was quite a ride from start to finish. While the ending was a bit expected, I can't imagine any other ending working, and I didn't see all aspects of it coming 100%. Do yourself a favor and see this movie!

Joe Goodhart (27 KP) rated Paper Girls: Volume 1 in Books

Okay, as I wrote in my Comments for Reading Progress, this was a re-read, as I recently purchased Vol 4 as part of the SDCC Sale this past weekend on Comixology. I may have run through it first time out, because so much of what I read seemed as if this were my beginning go-round instead of a re-read. Hmm.. Time Slip anyone?

So, yes, just as with other BKV-helmed series, the characters are well-defined, given depth that is a progressional unfolding. Each issue allowed for me to see each of the main characters - Erin, KJ. Tiffany and Mac - for who they were and some of their moral fibers, if you will.

As good as Vaughn was at the writing, equally impressive was Cliff Chiang's art. The muted colors (except where needed, as deep red for a wound) really helped the story, making me feel like it was really the eighties instead of 2018! From the cars driven to the newspaper headlines to the housing developments layouts, it felt just like the time frame as the setting!

The easiest way to sum up this series is it is like Netflix's STRANGER THINGS but with all-girl main characters. I recall the later volumes being more science fiction-y as the series progress, but, yeah, definitely like STRANGER THINGS.

All I can say in closing is this is an awesome series! It is a lot of fun, and it is clear during reading it that BKV and Chiang had as good a time making it as I did reading! DEFINITELY CHECK IT OUT!
