Review of 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the Universe (Scott Pilgrim, Vol. 5)' on 'Goodreads'

It's difficult to explain why the Scott Pilgrim books are so good. They encompass so many interesting, unique qualities that blend together into a tapestry of epic epic-ness.
Here are a few ideas:
1. Scott Pilgrim exists in a world where the mechanics, ethos, and aura of video games (random fights with random robots, enemies exploding into heaps of coins - which may or may not be enough to cover bus fare - and other loot, etc.) are as common as breathing. And seriously, how can you dislike a guy whose band is named Sex Bob-omb?

The first time I saw Scott obsess over getting his hair cut - and what's more, freaking out that other people were getting haircuts before him - I was hooked.
3. At it's core, the Scott Pilgrim story is one that every guy can relate to: being utterly infatuated with a girl and knowing that you're going to have to kick some serious ass to get her. It's a story that stands the test of time.
Even if you despise comic books, graphic novels, etc., I encourage you to put aside your doubts and pick up this series. You're life will be changed for the better. 1-2-3-4!!!
