It depends on your perspective. Some might consider it new as it brings in new elements and developments. But in a broader sense, it still builds on the existing Scott Pilgrim universe.
Definitely. 'Scott Pilgrim Takes Off' draws inspiration directly from the comic. It retains many of the key elements and storylines from the source material.
Sure is. The comic of Scott Pilgrim vs the World gained quite a following before the movie adaptation came out. It has a unique style and engaging storyline.
Scott Pilgrim is likely to be one of the main characters. He has been central to the previous stories. Ramona Flowers is also probably a main character as she has a major role in Scott's life.
The unique art style makes it stand out. The vivid and detailed illustrations bring the story to life in a way that text alone couldn't. Also, the characters are so well - developed that readers can easily get attached to them.
