ASM: Calling Home, got it. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
About Runaways, I just started reading v2 first all the way to the current issue and it grabbed hold of me since the first issue. Really good title. Then I went back to read v1, which made me understand the whole Runaways and their parents even better. I hope this title will never end.
Oh, and I'm hearing something about YA and Runaways crossover mini-series for the Civil War, right? It'd be awesome to see that since I'm loving both of the two titles. I really hope Karolina shows up when Eli got shot since she got married with that Xavin Skrull and all.
Correct, there will be a cross-over miniseries (unfortunately it won't be written by either BKV or Heinberg, but I'm still looking forward to it

Do you know any titles that make you laugh? Something like X-Factor?? X-Factor is awesome, by the way. Cracks me up in every issue.
Dear god yes!!
Nobody ever asks me about comedy comics, which're some of my favorites, but nobody seems to have a genuine interest.
If you're enjoying X-Factor, you NEED to read Peter David's Captain Marvel series. It never lacks for great stories and action, but it will have you laughing the whole way through as well. It's from the same author as X-Factor, but this is the far superior title, completely underrated. This auction is a great price. There's one bidder already, but I doubt you'll have much more competition. snipe this on the last day if you can so the bidding won't go too high, it's a steal

THAT'S in the Marvel universe, but for perhaps the funniest comic I have ever read hands down, that's probably gotta be Barry Ween Boy Genius. Put together Calvin and Hobbes with Dexter's Labratory, with more cursing than a Taratino film, and you might have some idea what's instore for you. I am so insistent you check this book out if you're interested, I'll send you the first book for free myself (if you're willing to share your address, no big deal if you aren't). You NEED to read this:

For more Marvel stuff, ANYTHING written by Dan Slott will have you cracking up. He's been a rising star at MArvel for the past copuple of years. HE's currently writing Thing and She-Hulk, but IMO, his standout work was a miniseries he did last year for the Great Lakes Avengers. The GLA is a joke team, made up of wannabe loser superhero (Such as Mr. Immortal, who is immortal, but the extenet of his usefuless is usually just to get shot in the face at the begining of every battle and lay there until he recovers
). The miniseries from last year was a parody of comicbook death events, and a character is actually killed every issue. It's DARK, but it's brilliant. READ THIS!!
