I really love Saga and Vaughan did not disappoint with Runaways. I'm really glad I started with the whole first season though because it does start a little slow because it's really character driven which left the beginning a little slow. Once the story started rolling though it really did keep me ...
Not quite as satisfying of a read as the first volume, probably because it doesn't have the same focus. Now that the Pride storyline's been settled, we're basically left with a no adults, costume free version of Generation X. This is not a bad thing, necessarily. I really liked Generation X. And I r...
The deluxe edition has the complete first series of Runaways, 18 issues in all. It's a complete storyline, beginning to end. We start with six teens (and one preteen) discovering that they're parents are actually very powerful supervillains, and running away as an act of rebellion. Eventually, we ge...
Runaways has a really strong opening. The first six issues are fantastic, and do a great job of setting up the cast, the premise, and the stakes, with wit and heart. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a cast of characters so much, in comics or prose, and the titular Runaways were likable, shar...
Basically a YA graphic novel about kids--who in the process of learning their parents are evil super villians--have to discover and come to terms with their own powers, so yeah, this is basically as within my wheelhouse as a thing can possibly be. Loved it. If that sounds like your thing you'll dig ...
Great Idea! Nice array of superhero characters that reminded me of the X-factor from my younger days. Unfortunately, when I found out it had gone through an author switch, some characters die, and it remained unfinished...I quickly killed my addiction to this series. I will just enjoy this book, and...

Brian Vaughan is one of the best comic book writers around, and this series is just wonderful. One of those things where sometimes you find out someone's reading it and you're consumed with jealousy that they get to find out about it for the first time, and you'll never get to do that again. Vol. ...
