Runaways Appreciation 2018

[Personamanx]

Yes, I was a bit mixed up initially. I read them both on the same day, wires get crossed. Still though, between the end of Academy and beginning of Runaways those would have been the best opportunity to develop the pairing. They elected not to.

Come to think of it, why hasn't Julie turned up in Squirrel Girl then? She's at ESU too.

Big school, and they probably don't take many of the same classes. Squirrel Girl is doing Computer Science, right? Julie's probably doing something more art oriented.

For anyone who collects them... They are getting Funko Pop's.

[Personamanx]

Yeah, we were discussing those earlier. It's pretty neat, it can't help but feel a little validating when your favourite comic (or at least its Television adaptation) starts getting serious merchandise. If nothing else having a Funko Pop series is a sign of a healthy IP.

And because I'm an adult with a small amount of disposable income I pre-ordered the Nico Minoru one, as well as her older Marvel Legends figure. Would have ordered her Eagle Moss lead figure as well if it was on the same online store. I never thought I'd say this, but I'm running out of room for my Runaways stuff.

Oops, my bad. I hope there’s a variant for Karolina with her alien form.

Yeah, I feel it's the obvious choice for a special variant, the rainbow transparency would make it great.

You know between Julie, Squirrel Girl, Nightmask and Starbrand ESU has a lot of superhero co-eds

[Personamanx]

It'd be a real party school if not for all of the secret identities.

I’ve actually been waiting for him to come back, I mean he was resurrected back in Avengers Undercover so I’m a little surprised it took this long for him to be returned to the Runaways title.

I don't even know what to say lol. I'm just so happy. I actually predicted the cliffhanger tbh so...

[vasir12]

Tbh, this whole issue was great in my opinion.

[Knives]

Strange that no image has been posted yet.

Anyway maybe it was the best issue so far. We had several developments and surprises some good and others not so much.

God have to admit Nico and Karolina were so beautiful in their dresses .
The scene with the butterflies was great too.

Rank 9 of 10.

Probably the best comic I read in the last 3 months.
