Re: Runaways series discussion (spoilers)

Yes, there is no way he would introduce a character into obscurity...

Like whats-his-name. The Vampire.

As Iceman said...he's dead.
If Xavin dies...that isn't really vanishing into obscurity, is it?

Another entertaining issue.

Nico got it on. It would be funny if she got knocked up.

Wow, I can't believe I love this. I think Molly is the cutest thing.

The whole Xavin/Karolina arranged marriage bit pulled Karolina out of the Runaways. That marked a decidedly downward shift in Nico's moods and further attention whoring like her kiss with Chase. The whole mess from that coming out allowed Molly to be taken, setting it up so Xavin and Karolina could make their grand return and help save the day.

I'm pretty sure we've been getting dark and brooding Nico ever since Alex died. Not when Karolina left. It's easy to look at it from the erotic standpoint that so many fans of the series are doing. But people are blowing her feelings for Alex off just because he betrayed them even though there's more clues about her and Alex then of her and Karolina.

And this whole "Xavin" is gonna trail off into obscurity? Xavin's been in the title for like 2 issues. Although he's pretty irritating, he's a great dynamic for the team. I don't BKV is gonna toss him away or in whatever case just have him fade away. BKV doesn't do that with characters. That's when you have a character stand in the background and just disappear. Syndacite and Excelsior were supporting characters to a subplot in the story. When they left, they all had purpose and objectives. They didn't just fade into obscurity because you can't see what they're doing.

Anyway, my point is this: the kids having sex to get over Gert's death doesn't really work for me, as everydayman elucidated (thanks).

Hey, someone's gotta stand up for that 10%. Not my fault you're a prude.

Would she give birth to a baby or a toaster? o_O

Alright.... It has to be said....

This is way sadder than the Crocodile Hunter dying.
 
Re: Runaways series discussion (spoilers)

Bollocks.

Well. If BKV says the new creative team is worth a damn, then I have the utmost confidence in him.

Gail Simone and Jim Cheung. Please.

My heart stopped when the announcement came.
No matter who takes over, no one is going to compare to Vaughan/Alphona.
Vaughan always said he'd leave someday, but I didn't expect it to happen so damn soon. I hoped we'd get another two years at least.

Same here. This is terrible news. I just hope the new team can uphold the standard.

On the plus side these last 5 issues are gonna rock.

They're gonna pull out all the stops. ;) Let's just hope there's something left for the new creative team when they're done.
