''Fool's Gold'' is an OELManga series written and illustrated by Amy Reeder Hadley and published by TokyoPop.
The story follows Penny, a sophomore in high school who has come to the conclusion that AllGirlsWantBadBoys, and [[SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan she wants to fix this]].
She proposes that the reason girls are attracted to jerks is because the jerks are pyrite, or fool's gold: [[BitchInSheepsClothing they look nice on the outside,]] [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk but they're not really worth any girl's attention]]. Penny starts a club dedicated to identifying the pyrite in her school and then shunning them by having all club members swear not to date or associate with them. But when she labels a boy a pyrite a little too quickly, she's caused a lot of confusion as it starts to seem that [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold he might not be so bad.]]
The series spans three volumes, the first two of which have already been published. [[WordOfGod Hadley has stated]] that the third volume is finished, but TokyoPop has no plans to release it at this time.

* AlphaBitch: Hannah has all the makings of a traditional Libby, but is treated fairly sympathetically and is arguably a subversion.
* {{Animesque}}: Doesn't embrace the manga style as overtly as some other [=OELs=], but it's still noticeable.
* BettyAndVeronica: Orion is Betty and Blake is Veronica.
* [[ChekhovsGunman Chekhov's Gunman]]: Orion, who appears in the background of every chapter of the first volume but doesn't become important until the end of it.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Severely insecure Orion becomes a Clingy Jealous [[GenderFlip Boy]] once he and Penny start dating.
* CoolBigSis: Penny's aunt, Nicole.
* EducationMama: Penny's dad is a male example.

* TellMeAboutMyFather: Doesn't actually happen, but Penny wishes her father would talk more about her dead mother because she never got the chance to know her.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: In a more mundane example, Blake is so obsessed with proper grammar that he [[spoiler: defaces signs that contain sentence fragments to make them grammatically correct]]. Penny is arguably this with her club.
