MEDIA REVIEWS
"His plotting on Paper Girls is second to none,and lays subplot trailswith an artistry that would be earning him all kinds of mainstream accolades ifthis were a Netflix series and not a comic book. But the look of Paper Girls isutterly gorgeous as well." -The Guardian UK"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 comicsurrealism that Chiang is definitely dabbling in here."-BoingBoing"The story opens with an earnest,Spielberg-esque vibe that sends yousoaring before abruptly plunging you down into the creepy and bizarre,ultimately leaving you with the most WTF cliffhanger...of the year."-Vox.com"A total blast,a mass-cultural mash-it-up that evokes everythingfrom B-movie creature-feature thrills to vintage YA angst to the pop-plunderingalbum covers of Hipgnosis. I've re-read the series three timesnow-sometimes to get re-unstuck in Vaughan's time-bending story; sometimesto study Cliff Chiang's vibrant,spacious illustrations; sometimes to take inMatt Wilson's neon,period-perfect coloring...Chances are you'll get sucked intoit,too-especially if Stranger Things...has whet your appetite for moreReagan-era intrigue."-WIRED "Paper Girls is a reminder of how fresh and accessible even the mostfamiliar stories and tropes can feel when people who have been consigned to thesidelines of popular entertainment take center stage."-SLATE"Its tone is harder,flintier,funnier,more pragmatic,and far lessconcerned with idealizing the'lost innocence'of childhood (thanStranger Things and Super 8)."-NPR
