Paper Girls #30


   I'm certainly sorry to see this series come to an end.

   Paper Girls has been an interesting mix of teen adventure / comedy, mad science fiction adventure, and fever dream / stream of consciousness / alternate reality.

   The story has been complex and Byzantine - and I suspect the ending makes it a great time to revisit the series and sort out the complete (and complex) plot, as it weaves through different times, places and realities.

   The final issue manages to be a sweet (but never cloying) wrap-up to this nostalgia-fueled romp. (Hint: it's all about the friendship.)

   Terrific art and a wonderful (and challenging) story - lots to like here!

Grade: A
