    Default Why is original Runaways being reprinted?

    And it only contains 6 issues from the first arc. Is this common?
    “If you want to really see a road map of where our movies will be (going) in the next five, 10 or 20 years, read the comics,” says Joe Quesada, Marvel’s chief creative officer. “Because they’re almost always a precursor to what’s on the horizon in our cinematic universe and our television universes.”

    Mainly to introduce new readers to certain characters who have been seen before but haven't had their origins/histories been revealed (at the time) within the current series that they're involved with more established ones.

    they could be giving them a new series or bring them in to the MCU, Nicos mom is in the MCU's cannon so we can assume the original cast is there in some way or form

    She is seen in the prequel comic for the doctor strange movie.
    Also Daniel Drumm appears in that as well

    Nico is in A-Force. Reprinting Runaways shows the fanbase of that title where the character came from.

    Maybe they are thinking of making a movie of them? That's what I thought was the intention of the book.

    Well, now we know why the reprint exists! They're joining the MCU, it seems! TV show coming to Hulu.

    Technically they are joining Marvel Cinematic Expended Universe as the recent deluge of interview from both sides confirming there aren't going to be ANY interaction between TV side and movies in near future
