It doesn\u2019t take long for the Paper Girls<\/em> comic books to get strange.<\/em> The series from Brian K. Vaughan<\/a> and Cliff Chiang starts out with a dream about an astronaut with angel wings and a skull for a face, and before the first issue is done, you\u2019ll have seen an odd partially-organic space capsule and read a completely incomprehensible language from people who might be monsters. Things only get weirder from there.<\/p>\n

But the new live-action series of the same name<\/a>, the first season of which is available on Amazon Prime Video, dials back the strangeness. It\u2019s still a science fiction story about a group of girls from the \u201880s who are pulled into a time-traveling war that spans centuries. But it doesn\u2019t have nearly as much fun with the concept as its source material. It isn\u2019t until the finale that Paper Girls<\/em> really shows why it\u2019s interesting \u2014 and you have to wade through eight very uneven episodes to get to that point.<\/p>\n

This review contains spoilers for the first season of <\/em>Paper Girls.<\/em><\/p>\n

Paper Girls<\/em> is set in 1988 and starts very early in the morning on \u201cHell Day,\u201d the day after Halloween, when four girls set off to complete their paper routes. The day is important because, in the wee hours of the morning while the girls are biking through the neighborhood, there are still rowdy teens prowling the streets in search of kids to terrorize. After a few close calls, the girls \u2014 Tiff (Camryn Jones), Mac (Sofia Rosinsky), KJ (Fina Strazza), and newbie Erin (Riley Lai Nelet) \u2014 band together in the interest of safety despite barely knowing each other. It doesn\u2019t do much good, though, because it\u2019s not long before some weird guy steals one of Tiff\u2019s walkie-talkies and the girls discover that seemingly everyone in town has disappeared. Oh, and the sky has turned a very unnatural shade of bright pink.<\/p>\n
