Background Information

Scott Pilgrim is a comic by Bryan Lee O'Malley about a 23 year old slacker and video game fan (aren't we all). Scott Pilgrim starts out dating a 17 year old Chinese girl name Knives Chau, much to everyone's amusement. He would then see the girl of his dreams (literally, the girl uses his head as a shortcut for traveling), Ramona Flowers. Soon after meeting her he decides to cheat on Knives with Ramona. After dating her for a while he finds himself being attacked by her seven evil exes. Soon the series turns from an awkward love story to world of dimensional travelers and superpowers.

Most notably the series is based on video games and it seems everyone in the series has some form of superhuman ability or power. From elemental manipulation, dimensional travel, robots, psychic powers, music used as weapons, extra lives, ninja abilities, cutting buses in half, and punching holes into the moon, this series is one for the history books.

The comic has 6 volumes and has spawned an amazing movie and a video game entitled Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

Standing in the Battledome


The universe overall is relatively weak, the characters being around low superhuman level with the only outlier being Todd Ingram and his moon punching feats. While in Subspace the dominate controller of that area of Subspace may gain powers and abilities comparable to that of movie versions of comic characters.
