Back in July, Bryan O’Malley released the 6th and final volume of the Scott Pilgrim series entitled “Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour”. A release party was held at the Beguiling in Toronto on July 19th, 2010

While over 150 comic shops across North America hosted midnight release parties, Only the Beguiling had O’Malley, a former Toronto native in the house. In addition to live bands, a costume contest, video game demos, and an appearance by Ellen Wong, the actress who plays “Knives Chau” in the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World movie, there were two autograph sessions with O’Malley. Over 1,250 fans got their posters, comics and graphic novels signed by O’Malley that night, making this a nice show of support for this Canadian comics creator.
