The LAST volume in the Scott Pilgrim series of graphic novels!
It's finally here! Six years and almost 1000 pages have all led to this epic finale! With six of Ramona's seven evil exes dispatched, it should be time for Scott Pilgrim to face Gideon Graves, the biggest and baddest of her former beaus. But didn't Ramona take off at the end of Book 5? Shouldn't that let Scott off the hook? Maybe it should, maybe it shouldn't, but one thing is for certain: all of this has been building to Scott Pilgrim's Finest Hour!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Can an irresponsible slacker find love and become a man along the way? That's been the six-volume question behind the witty and wise Scott Pilgrim series. In the fifth book, Scott's love, Ramona, walked out on him due to her own confessed weaknesses, while Scott wrestled with newfound contentment. O'Malley's final volume has some of his trademark humor, but it's a much darker and more serious look at the battle of love. Alone, Scott goes on a journey of atonement with his previous girlfriends and is shocked to learn that some of them have moved on without him. The final evil ex, Gideon Graves turns out to be a manipulative and shallow version of what Scott himself would become if his selfish nature were to take over. Their climactic battle is allowed to play out at length, with video game references galore. O'Malley's cartooning skills have advanced enough since the first volume to make this a bravura visual experience. Although fans of the series will find this a satisfying conclusion, the nature of the true relationship between Scott, Ramona, and Gideon is perhaps glossed over a bit the only complaint in an otherwise triumphant finale.
