I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Paper Girls Vol. 3 by Brian Vaughan (Writer), Cliff Chiang (Artist), Matt Wilson (Colorist), Jared K. Fletcher (Letterer)


In the previous book, Mac, Tiffany, and Erin wind up in 2016 standing in front of adult Erin's car. They ask for her help in finding KJ.  Older Erin's phone and their apple device synch up and show a map of the old mall that they used to hang out at so they make plans to go there. Meanwhile, Mac and Tiffany want to find out what happened to them and Mac gets the worst news ever in that she learns that she died.  When they get to the mall they get a message from KJ's hockey stick saying not to trust the other Erin.  Then another Erin from the future shows up to take them to the future.  Erin decides not to trust the future one and they follow KJ's instructions and find themselves backward in time to the caveman days with KJ.

 Mac decides to go off to be alone with her thoughts and winds up by the river where she runs into a native young woman with a baby who attacks her. The other three come to her rescue and the woman stops her attack, but then a huge animal comes up and Mac winds up being swatted in the river and KJ goes in after her.

The girls had seen a streak in the sky that Mac and KJ believe could have been a time machine.  It was Doctor Qanta Braunstein who believes that she is the first to time travel.  However, she is captured by the three men who consider themselves the father of the young woman's child.  They are hunting her in the forest to take her child away from her.

The girls want to save the woman time traveler who could maybe get them home and they want to help the young woman with the baby.  How will their actions effect the future timeline? Will they be able to make it out of the prehistoric time and get back to their own time?  This series just keeps ratching up the action and twists in the story that you don't see coming.  It makes this an exciting comic and one worth reading. I highly recommend this book.
