As I mentioned in my previous review of Paper Girls Volume 1, the strange hieroglyphic language spoken by the time-travelling teenagers not only has structure but it can also be translated. Provided below are all the bits of alien dialogue used, broken up according to the issue with the corresponding page number. If you enjoyed reading Paper Girls in-spite of having no clue as to what the glyphs meant, than these pages will help to supplement your knowledge and fill in some major plot questions.
