Books A Little Gloating and Some Free Scott Pilgrim Books.

Hey, GUESS WHAT I GOT??

I know! I totally hate me too!

And while I'm hoarding the hell out of volume 5, I do have extra copies of the first four Scott Pilgrim books, courtesy of the kindly folks at Oni Press. Want 'em? Send me an email by 3 pm Monday with "Scott Pilgrim" in the subject line. I'll pick one at random and email back the winner. (I'm not going to explain AGAIN how good these books are. Ask the internet, it knows.)

And for all you non-winners out there, here's a date for the iCal: Scott Pilgrim Volume 5 Release Party, Thurs Feb 5, 6-10 pm, Floating World Comics. Oni promises "exclusive Scott Pilgrim stuff that’s not available online or in any stores" (the t-shirts are super cool)—and, since it's First Thursday, there'll be a Found Photo exhibit and slide show happening as well. FUN!

Super fun! I've only gotten through the first 3 so now I get to feel like a total slacker.

Isn't this optioned as a movie starring Michael Cera or did I make that up?

Not just in the works, but moving ahead with a whole lot of promise, I think. God I hope this movie will be as awesome as it should be.

I'm sure the movie will be cool, and all, but lately I've been obsessing over the idea of Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little 2D Fighter. Will my dreams ever be fulfilled?

@ Kyle: That's a brilliant idea. Think of Knives Chau's special moves!

I am ridiculously jealous of you right now Alison Hallett. I am thinking about robbing you.
