Matthew Patel and his Demon Hipster Chicks

The Demon Hipster Chicks are a group of demons in Hipster form. They are either demons that work for Matthew Patel, or are illusions created by his powers. Their powers weren't elaborated, as Scott Pilgrim defeated Mathew seconds after they were introduced. The powers they showed were levitation or flight, the ability to sing with Patel, and to shoot fire balls. They wear a tank top with a star on them and a mini-skirt, while they have slit eyes, bat wings and claw-like nails.
