I don't think it's so much that the third volume is "horrible", it's just that it's not even close to being as good as the first two, which were kickass.

People read Runaways?

Runaways is better right now that it has been since Vaughn left the book.

Moore did a crap job and Wheton didn't do anything particularly good but Yost (at least in his first issue) really brought back everything I like about the characters/plot.

I'm only reading it still, because i am a really big fan of it, not as much now, but since there are new writers, it could become my fav series again..

Aww.  You should have.  It was oddly enough the most enjoyable X-comic in awhile too.

Dude you are totally complaining about a writer and an artist that are no longer on the book.

I'm telling you, the first 9 issues of volume 3 were all drawn by Ramos.  His art is very cartoonish.  I'm also telling you that the entire third volume, not counting last issue, was written by Moore and has been rather sucky.

Furthermore, I'm telling you that the last issue of the book, issue number 10, has both a new writer and a new artist: Christopher Yost and Emma Rios.  They are highly superior to Ramos and Moore and the book is good right now.

So unless you picked up this comic


you are not talking about the ones on the book "at this moment."

Has anyone read the latest issue, I think it was total BS man, the only reason they killed off s/he  was because no writer felt like writing for s/he I just hope that resurrection of Gert will be worth it

I think Old Lace was the perfect choice.  She had the least personality of the group, fun as she was, and had a very strong tie to Gert.

Granted, I haven't read the issue yet and I may agree with you after I do but I'm just glad they didn't kill off any of the other characters.

Agreed.  Same with Chase or Molly.

Don't care about Clara so much but the book becomes less kid friendly (I'm aware of all the violence in Weaton's stories) if Clara dies and I imagine most Runaways fans care more about Victor than Old Lace.  I don't but I'm sure many do.

No, he didn't die he just felt Lace die before the others found out.

He is dead with old lace. Otherwise if Gert would of never passed her link to chase, Old Lace would of died with her.

I understand that, but the new writer wont consider that, they said only one will die I don't think they would kill off both Lace and Chase, I think Chase is in great pain but not dead.

I think they will kill both off, and then bring old lace back.  If they do bring Gert back then she will join the avengers in a few years.
