This looks really cool. I never get enough time travel stories.
This was filmed before COVID if I remember correctly
As someone who was blown away by the comic run I can’t wait to see this. Teaser doesn’t show much but hope they didn’t cut the scenes in the far past and futuristic future.
Thought it was in post development hell and was surprised to see it’s coming out in less than a month. Guess they were waiting to for Stranger Things to end so that they could snag some of the viewers looking for a similar fix. Can’t blame them, pretty smart.
The comics were great! Hope this turns out well
I love this comic, this looks cool and I cannot wait to watch it!
Please please please be good
Love the comic. Wonder if this would work better animated to be able to get really weird with the time travel stuff.
Wanted to like the comic, but it was too heavy handed dialogue wise and full of exposition
This show has so much potential. The comic is fantastic
There’s something deeply ironic about Amazon making the adaptation of a comic where at one point a character points out that Amazon is destroying everything and claim’s “Amazon’s a bitch.” People keep saying it, but the comic really is absolutely incredible. I’m curious how they’re going to deal with the >!Apple stuff, since it’s such a huge motif with the Tree of Knowledge stuff. Plus, in the comic and Apple (like, the company) literally invent time travel. I doubt Amazon are going to put a bunch of references in their show about their competitor.!< Ali Wong really is perfect casting for older Erin. I hope they really use color in the show similar to how they do in the comic. Cliff Chiang’s art is a huge part of what made it so great. Possibly controversial opinion here, but I do hope they >!swap up the ending a bit. I’m all for open ended vague endings, and while I thought the sendoff for the girls themselves was perfect, the background for how and why the war ends is nigh-incomprehensible.!< Overall, I’m super excited for this, as Paper Girls is one of my favorite comics ever!
Spot on casting! They look a lot alike!
I always look forward to Ali Wong projects.
Trailer look great but the thumbnail look like a b-movie photoshop
I know nothing about it, but I wished they did not use the Stranger Things Upside Down tune. Makes me lose some respect 😛
hoping this ends better than y the last man
Really excited for this. Thought it was meant to be animated though or was I tripping?
Pretty telling that Amazon is not showing much of this.
I’m an ENORMOUS comic book fan – been collecting since I was a little girl and have like 500 comics – and some of my favorite series are Shutter, Bone, Strangers In Paradise, Sweet Tooth, Nailbiter, Headlopper, Snotgirl and any of the old Slave Labor stuff like Lenore (and its more recent Dark Horse run) just for some examples. That being said, I tried to get into this and even read the first 20 issues – still catching up – and…aside from the art…it just…
…is incomprehensible and messy, and even when things are finally sort of revealed and explained, it still feels that way. HOWEVER, I did state at one point to my girlfriend that I thought it would make for an excellent TV show, and this teaser definitely makes me stand even firmer in that belief. Some stories are just told better in a different medium. It’s funny, I was just thinking earlier this week when we’d finally see this too. Glad to know it’s soon, hah.
Here’s to hoping I enjoy it more than I do the comic.
Who thought it was a good idea to straight up copy the upside theme from stranger things? And how do so many people approve it makes the trailer?
Everyone comparing it to Stranger Things…. The comic run started long before Stranger Things aired it first season and this looks pretty much like the comic.
Yes, the comic is quite good.
I’m just tired of the 80s. There are other decades to explore. The 60s? The 90s? Heck, 2000s nostalgia is popular among teens and social media now. Anything but the 80s.
I am so curious to see how they translate this into a show. The comic is so fast paced and constantly moving, with very little downtime, where the show would just burn through all the content very quickly.
