The Runaways Thread

[supermarvelman]

I too appreciate something about each of the characters... it's an ensemble book, to only enjoy one character would kind of be cheating myself. Especially with the whole cast being transient, at least in theory, being a Gert fan, or enjoying Gert is a totally different animal than being a Runaways fan or enjoying Runaways.

Starting their Road Trip in New York is okay, I don't like it, but sure, why not. It'd be funny if their road trip took them to some different countries... I think Mighty Avengers might have te West Coast covered soon, in which case, they can have the West Coast without running into the Runaways...

If Mighty Avengers cover CA, then I'd be satisfied, CA wouldn't need anymore superteams if the Mighty Avengers where their.

Eh. Only if they fought enemies like they do in NY. California from the few times I've been there is cool and all. Wait, I'm getting AWAY from what I'm trying to say.

I hope they do go there, fight villans on par with what they were up against in NY, and totally trash Hollywood.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

They'll be back to california once Black Soul of Alex Wilder reveals himself amid the mass firey destruction of the tar pits.

We don't really know the circumstances of why their running to NYC yet so i'll hold off my opinon on that one untill it drops. I'd like to state that I do NOT like Xavin being in the group. How ZZzzzzzzzzz. I want there to be more tactical development. I want them to grow into their superhero role more. So far it's mainly been almost a kind of bad 7th heaven.

I want Alex to come back and them to have to put him down. I want sexual tension between him and nico again. Would be cool for them to have to deal with that as she plants him in the dirt. Chase finally needs to develop into more than just local flavor his inner superheo needs to come out. Would be cool.

Anyways. Much love.

I'm expecting some sort of explosive or dramatic reason to flee CA, I'm just saying them heading to NYC again is just a stock sort of destination. Why not Utah? Who the F is going to bother them there?

Eh, I still maintain that he's holding Nico hostage so she can magic up a spell that can locate a pure soul that nobody cares about or something to that effect.

Possibly. He also may want her to approve of his actions, while not being able to stop him should be go on without her approval. But we'll see in about 2 weeks.

I'm still saying that he wants her to locate an innocent soul, like how she located the leak.

Only two issues left. Of course I love Whedon, and can't wait, but it will never be the same. The last couple months I've developed a heavy man crush on BKV and now, well this book just won't be as good without him. I know I remember freaking out for Whedon, but now looking back, BVK has made one of the best comics out there today. I had to give a speech in my speech class on any hobby I love, of course I did comics. At the end I recommened a few books, and Runaways was one of them. Three weeks later I had a guy come thank me for telling him about it, and how much he dug it. I'm going to miss BKV and Adrian, <3.

Is everyone forgetting about that kid who was dumpster diving when Chase stepped out of the portal in the last issue? His guts are probably as good as spilled.

 

[Kevin]

That's from the issue Gert died.

 

[PWN3R]

It's also the best cover to a Runaway issue and one of the best covers of 2006.

 

[Kevin]

It still hurts, though.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

Really? I hate that weak ass art.

 

[Kevin]

Because it hurts?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Then allow me to revise. He requires Nico to extract the kid's soul.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

Because it hurts?

Yes. My retina are still recovering.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

Then allow me to revise. He requires Nico to extract the kid's soul.

meh, maybe. I'm seeing one issue of terapy session, followed by one issue of the destruction of the gibborum forever. Chase is back, then he goes all batman on everyone.


PLEASE let him go all batman on everyone.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

If he does that, I quit this comic.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

If he does that, I quit this comic.

So what.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Then you'll have to deal with me thrashing this comic.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

Then you'll have to deal with me thrashing this comic.

I hope you meant trashing. That I can deal with, but seeing you laying the smack down on a comic book would be pretty tight.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

I meant thrashing. In a verbal way. Like trashing, only mean spirited.

 

[Victor Von Doom]

I meant thrashing. In a verbal way. Like trashing, only mean spirited.

Yeah I'll bet it'll be far removed from all of that trashing you normally do with good intentions.

 

[bengan]

When is the new runaway out?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

Yeah I'll bet it'll be far removed from all of that trashing you normally do with good intentions.

Actually, most of my trashing IS with good intentions.

 

[Specter313]

Then allow me to revise. He requires Nico to extract the kid's soul.

Didn't the sacrificial knife do that already?

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

There's a degree of magic that must be followed. Magic he probably doesn't know.

Remember, it was a team effort with the Pride. They still had to contain the soul and such. Things he probably can't do.
