Paper Girls Vol I by Brian K Vaughan and Cliff Chiang - Review

Wednesday, September 25, 2024


A friend of mine lent this to me ages ago and I picked it up one day in late August and read it really quickly. I liked it so much that I've got the rest in the series to read too. It's a really fun graphic novel and I would really recommend it whether you like graphic novels or not.

The comic is set in 1988 and all the action takes places in one day on the first of November. Erin is twelve years old and has recently got a job delivering newspapers. She is out delivering when she meets KJ, Mac, and Tiffany. A group of teenagers attacks them and steals a walkie talkie from them. The girls chase them and find some kind of strange machine in the basement of a house - it's sort of like a UFO. The girls then try to protect themselves from the strange groups of people who are fighting - the teenagers and some weird dinosaur-like creatures. 

I really liked the colours used in the comic, and the fashions of the girls which showed that the setting was the late eighties. I am so intrigued to read more and will probably do that soon. I'm giving this four out of five.
