Reviews

It will be interesting to see if every issue ends with a cliffhanger. The storyline keeps taking you on turns you're not expecting.
I love the group dynamic and how they're learning about each other as individuals together and the secrets of their parents.

Best one of them all

It's extremely difficult to rate the individual chapters, therefore the following is a review of the first volume. In other words, chapters one through six.


I am a big fan of Brian K. Vaughan’s Saga series and have been meaning to dive into more of his work for a while. Finally, I have picked up the first volume of Runaways: Pride and Joy and found it to be an okay read.

I can certainly see why many enjoy this one, as there are lots of things I am interested to see more of. While I did find it enjoyable, it was clear that this was an introduction to the series. Lots was introduced and questions were raised, ensuring I wanted more, but there was nothing that made me go ‘this is such a unique concept’ in the way parts of Saga do. Although it did not blow my mind, I am curious enough to read the next volume.

All in all, this has not earned a spot on my must-read list of graphic novel series, but it has left me willing to read more.

Vaya que mejoró, y se puso muy raro jajaja me gusta el tono que tiene, una historia de superhéroes con mucho misterio detrás...
