It's offical I am going to start buying into this series.
I mean before I was tempted, but now that I hear that they are going to add X-23 and the Runaways into the series is just WOW, instant buy.

Good job at increasing sales, but I strongly dislike the surviving Runaways. Tisk!

But yeah, EXTREMELY excited.
But I'm confused. Issue 27 and March? They said it was issue 24 in the other interview! Not to mention that they said immediately after X-23 joins, but that would mean that it's issue 24 that this would start, unless issue 23-26 are about X-23 joining.
Something is getting lost in translation!

I was interested in the series before, but I didn't get any issues due to lack of comic book money funds and/or too much emotional baggage on these kids at first. Originally Posted by Songbird/Diamondback

I mean it was good when it was more action oriented like it is now, and it looks like it is going to be getting better in the coming issues.

Welll, definitely going to come back for this "Runaways" arc. My budget is too stretched to commit beyond that.

Can't wait for that.
Molly: Oh, kitty, kitty, kitty...
Tigra: Hey! Stop scratching my chin! Stop it, I... I... Purrrr
Striker & Hazmatt: 12 yo girl acting like she was 6. Creepy...Me: Please Marvel, give some spotlight to your 21th century creations instead of killing them every month.
Marvel: Avengers Arena, lol!
Classy as always, Marvel.

I glad to hear Lyra She-Hulk will be joining. As trained as she is though what could Hank Pym or Tigra really teach her? Maybe Banner and Jen just want her to interact with other super powered youngsters.

I think its more for the experience with other kids that won't hate and fear her for her powers. As well what it is to be a hero (then again she has had her own personal tutor). This does mean that at one point hopefully She-Hulk will be a guest teacher Originally Posted by Mister Wolf

"One of our readers pointed out to us that since the Runaways' Victor Mancha was created (he's a sentient machine) by evil robot Ultron, and Ultron was created by Hank Pym, that means Hank is kind of Victor's grandfather! So there are family ties to be explored. Will Hank want Victor to stay with him? Will Victor want to? What about the other kids? We'll be exploring what makes these two groups similar and different. And there'll be plenty of high adventure as well."
WOOHOO! I know I say it every time... but that makes me super stoked and honored. Thanks Cristos for listening to your fans. I never even thought he'd read that letter.
