IGN - Kat Calamia
Feb 08, 2018Vaughan and Chiang's view on future technology makes for such a creative world, but this world building is just used as decoration because the series' real story is the relationship that is formed among the girls. This is a refreshing take from many other comic books. Read Full Review

Black Nerd Problems - Jordan Calhoun
Feb 09, 2018Artistically, this issue flexes a few muscles as you look in the backgrounds of the future-people to find clues and better understand what the girls might be facing. From inside their offices to inside their ships, you notice some crazy things that push your thinking a bit further and leaving you guessing for answers of their meaning and implications. And, of course, Vaughan is a master of the page-turn-leading-to-someone's-death, so while it isn't always a surprise anymore, it's skillful nonetheless. Overall, this issue isn't a game changer, but propels us to the next arc and helps set the emotional stage a little bit in several different areas. And that's what it was meant to do.

Feb 15, 2018While not the most action-packed or plot heavy issue, this one was full of nice character moments and ends with a fun reveal. Like most issues of this, I don't feel like I have the full picture, but I'm not supposed to, which gives the series a good air of mystery. I can't wait to see what is next! Read Full Review

Great ending of this arc, can't wait to see what's next. This is getting crazier every issue, and it's definitely not a bad thing.

This was a fun arc of "Paper Girls," and it ends on a surprising note, showing us that Vaughan and Chiang have ways to take this series in new and different directions. Great story, great art.

This arc felt kind of... off. I like revisiting Y2K, and the rampaging robots are cool. But the treads tying these two things together didn't feel as tight as previous arcs. In any case, onward to the future!
