Very interesting start to the Paper Girls saga. I'll be looking forward to reading more in Vol 2. 

Four paper girls in 1988 connect as the world begins to not resemble anything they know. Dinousaurs flying out of portals in the sky, interstellar/futuristic teens also fighting for themselves, and some interstellar/future elders trying to get young women to behave who have no intention to.

Super cute graphic novel about group of girls and figure out what is happening  to their town as they know it. 

Ends on cliffhanger.
