I believe it should say somewhere that his bass is a Rickenbacker, it's an iconic and influential instrument. That LOOK (shape, etc) is licensed as well, so people who know instantly recognize it as such. The official color name is Fireglo. So instead of saying Red Bass Guitar, you would say Fireglo Rickenbacker.
Actually, just search Google Images for the term "fireglo" and you will find that 99% of results are pictures of red Rickenbacker guitars and basses.

Can someone explain why the Locations section needs such a detailed list? I think the introductory two sentences of the section are totally valid, and could probably expanded into a full section with some references (I think there even was some article dealing especially with the fact that SP was set in Toronto), but I don't see the point of listing every place that appears in the series. Some examples would easily suffice. In its current state, the section seems somewhat off-topic and pointless. -- Fritz S. ( Talk) 08:34, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

"Scott Pilgrim was recently ranked 85th on Wizard magazine’s list of the '200 Greatest Comic Characters of All Time', effectively putting him in the company of such international comic book icons as Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, and the X-Men." Is 85th really "in the company" here? Surely at least Superman and Batman are in the single digits, and what about Spider-Man and Wonder Woman? If there were a Nobel Prize for comics one could imagine Superman there along with Donald Duck, but 85th? -- Vaughan Pratt ( talk) 07:51, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
In the summary for the 5th volume, a minor inaccuracy. It says Scott and Ramona have sex after getting drunk on tequila, but in fact, they don't. Scott falls asleep before anything happens. Someone else might want to doublecheck it. Neruka ( talk) 09:54, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
I came to this article wanting to know something about the comic. Background information, other info about the artist(s) and/or writer(s), references to other media or comparable works, adaptations, etc. A blow-by-blow summary of the plot is neither helpful nor useful; it is merely a spoiler. The article needs a complete rewrite and I suggest that the volume-by-volume summaries are removed and replaced with information about the books and their creators.

Okay, I understand Wikipedia's stance on spoilers, but the summary of Volume 6 is frankly ridiculous. Not only does it spoil EVERYTHING in the book, even the smallest details, it is far far far too long. Needs to be changed immediately. 85.189.227.173 ( talk) 13:07, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

"You guys are wusses," joked Pill, whose character Kim Pine stole the show with every wry remark. "[She] was written very well by Bryan Lee O'Malley," she explained. While Kim's previous relationship with Scott is mentioned in the film, Pill says it will be explored in other media. "There will be a little something-something that will air on Adult Swim," she revealed. Of course, fans of the comics know that the story is told in the pages of "Scott Pilgrim."
It bothers me that the summaries listed here are much less summaries than a play-by-play of each book. They should be shortened to include the basic plot points, characters, who Scott fights, etc. But it goes so far into detail that if a reader was simply curious about the series this article would completely spoil everything in the series, including the smaller dialog points.
Its in definite need of a cleanup. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.2.196.231 ( talk) 20:45, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

Just a heads up - over the next few days I'll be working on paring down the book synopses to bring them more in line with other articles similar to this one.
