Scott Pilgrim is a comic series by the unfairly talented Brian Lee O'Malley. It follows the exploits of the title character and his friends, in particular his relationship with the mysterious subspace-using Amazon delivery girl Ramona Flowers, who comes with rather a strange problem: In order to keep her, Scott is going to have to defeat her Legion of Seven Evil Ex-Boyfriends.
The series swings between brilliantly observed romantic comedy and utter insanity, with a tonne of pop culture references thrown in, especially from video games.
The film has been optioned, and is going to be directed by Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, Spaced) which is just about perfect because the book is very similar in tone to Spaced.
O'Malley's art is simple but brilliant, with great expressions, top notch story telling and a lot of fun to it, and he has got to tone of slightly geeky twentysomethings completely right.
You can find out more at http://www.scottpilgrim.com/ and the fourth volume of the series came out last week so now is a great time to start reading it.
Which if you've not already done, you should do RIGHT NOW. It will be AWESOME.

It is amazing, and the art gets better with each book as well. It's well worth picking up. (And it's only going to be 6 volumes so it's not like it's a lot of money.)

Yeah, Envy does look a bit like Trippy in that shot. Though I should hope they don't ACT the same.
