**Thanks to Oni Press for sending me a galley of this novel. This is a review of the colored edition. I recieved no rewards for reviewing this, and the review was written by myself and no-one else.**
When I saw this title on Netgalley I started fangirling already. Scott Pilgrim, my one and only comic crush, in color! This is seriously awesome! This graphic novel is about the first evil ex, the dude he has to fight in order to be with Ramona Flowers, the totally hot and funny girl Scott loves. The movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, is one of the best movies ever made, in my opinion. i have watched it 5 times now, and it still doesn't bore me at all. With Scott played by one of the cutest actors, Michael Cera ^^
Scott Pilgrim's Precious little Life is filled with humor. On every page there was something that made me laugh out loud. Just like the movie. It is just filled with so many dumb things, and is so random and geeky, I fell in love with Scott Pilgrim. With references to games - Scott goes to the toilet -> Pee Bar goes from full to empty - and the evil ex battle, comic style, it was just one of the most humorous books I have ever read.
That the graphic novel is colored made the whole novel even more entertaining. When I finished reading this graphic novel I watched the movie again, with the novel next to it, and the colors resembled! I was flabbergasted, how on earth is it possible to colorfill an entire novel :O And I fell in love with the entire novel even more.
The characters are extremely cute, the plot is random yet funny and interesting, the drawing style is beautiful, what more does a great graphic novel need? 5 stars and favorite go to Scott Pilgrim's precious Little Life. Everyone will love this!
Love,
Mar
