I’ve Liked You For A Thousand Years
Plumtree “Scott Pilgrim” – Today is a very special day, you guys. Not to get too hyperbolic, but in my little world, the release of Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together is undoubtedly the biggest cultural event of 2007. Since I started with the series around the time volume 3 was released last year, this is the first SP book that I had to wait a year for, and the anticipation has been very refreshing in the sense that aside from maybe a few tv shows, I don’t have much of an opportunity to get into the mindset of an excited fan impatiently waiting for a release date anymore.
Unfortunately, I reallllllly don’t have the time today to do this post as I’d originally planned (I’ve got to get through a lot of paid work if I have any hope to get out of the house and actually buy the book), but to catch up on things, I recommend reading my interview with Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O’Malley from last year, checking out the full-color preview of Gets It Together on the Vulture, or the excerpts from all four volumes on the official Scott Pilgrim site.
