9 | ''Scott Pilgrim'' is an award-winning indie graphic novel series by Creator/BryanLeeOMalley and published by Creator/OniPress throughout the mid-to-late [[TurnOfTheMillennium 2000s]]. |
10 | |
11 | The series revolves around its namesake character[[note]]named for a song by Canadian band Plumtree which inspired O'Malley to create the series[[/note]], a [[UsefulNotes/{{Canada}} Canadian]] twentysomething slacker who plays bass in a band called Sex Bob-Omb and otherwise lives a comfortable life mooching off his friends and roommate. Said life is thrown into chaos when [[McNinja American ninja]] delivery girl Ramona V. Flowers moves into town and starts using his dreams as a shortcut to other places, and Scott falls in love with her. However, to be free to date her, he has to defeat her seven evil exes in battle (they have a [[WeirdTradeUnion league]]) and -- quite possibly -- [[CharacterDevelopment get a life]]. |
