<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in single magazine form as Paper Girls #1-10"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>From BRIAN K. VAUGHAN, New York Times bestselling writer of SAGA, and CLIFF CHIANG, legendary artist of WONDER WOMAN, this gorgeous, oversized DELUXE HARDCOVER is the perfect way to experience the first two storylines of the smash-hit series that The Chicago Tribune named one of the Best Books of the Year. <p/>In the early hours after Halloween of 1988, four 12-year-old newspaper delivery girls uncover the most important story of all time. Suburban drama and otherworldly mysteries collide in this critically acclaimed story about nostalgia, first jobs, and the last days of childhood. <p/>Collects issues 1 through 10, along with EXCLUSIVE EXTRAS, and a brand-new cover from CLIFF CHIANG!<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The book remains gorgeous throughout every issue, every volume. Chiang and Wilson create big moments of weirdness--invisible mecha, unraveling time machines, kaiju tardigrades, card-catalog golems--that strike exactly the right balance between recognizable and utterly inexplicable to create a sense of the uncanny in both the girls and the reader. But they really shine in the quiet emotional moments of contemplation and realization... It's glorious and moving, and also awkward and funny." --<b><i>Tor.com</i></b><br><br><br>"Every volume of Paper Girls has been marked by outstanding dialog, incredible, likable characters, and art worthy of the magnificent Fiona Staples, whose work on Saga has revived a kind of Jack Kirby/Canteen on Mos Eisley comic surrealism that Chiang is definitely dabbling in here." --<b><i>Boing Boing</i></b><br><br><br>"Paper Girls' vivid color palette and Chiang's unique drawing style beautifully complement Vaughan's creative time-bending storyline." --<b><i>KORE Magazine</i></b><br><br><br>"The story opens with an earnest, Spielberg-esque vibe that sends you soaring before abruptly plunging you down into the creepy and bizarre, ultimately leaving you with the most WTF cliffhanger...of the year." --<b><i>Vox.com</i></b><br><br><br>His plotting on Paper Girls is second to none, and lays subplot trails with an artistry that would be earning him all kinds of mainstream accolades if this were a Netflix series and not a comic book. But the look of Paper Girls is utterly gorgeous as well. --<b><i>The Guardian UK</i></b><br><br><br>"A total blast, a mass-cultural mash-it-up that evokes everything from B-movie creature-feature thrills to vintage YA angst to the pop-plundering album covers of Hipgnosis. I've re-read the series three times now--sometimes to get re-unstuck in Vaughan's time-bending story; sometimes to study Cliff Chiang's vibrant, spacious illustrations; sometimes to take in Matt Wilson's neon, period-perfect coloring...Chances are you'll get sucked into it, too--especially if Stranger Things...has whet your appetite for more Reagan-era intrigue." --<b><i>WIRED </i></b><br><br>
