When it was at its best, it portrayed emotions and the unspoken parts of conversations as well as anything else I read last year. At the end, though, I couldn't tell if there had been a satisfying plot or even any sort of progression. I've been wondering how it would read as a trade.<BR/><BR/>Scooter Girl was disappointing. A lot of people rave about how great it is, but... Well, it wasn't bad. If it were a movie, it would have premiered on some cable TV channel on a Saturday afternoon. There were some interesting moments and clever conversation, but the plot was held together largely by coincidences and by people making choices that I just couldn't accept (sometimes because they were out of character, and sometimes because no human would act like that). True, it's the type of story that comics don't have enough of, but it's still a mediocre example of that type of story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7963510.post-1151089071440382152006-06-23T14:57:00.000-04:002006-06-23T14:57:00.000-04:00Scooter Girl was a lot of fun.

It was good, but not spectacular.
