    I got the Runaways because it was at my school's book fair and it reminded me of Maximum Ride for some reason. Alex's betrayal shook me. Also while reading it I was oblivious to the fact that it was a Marvel property. I didn't know much about most of Marvel's characters outside of the big ones in movies at the time. The series was a treat!

    @morganyoung3557 5 лет назад +8

    Since I always have a soft spot for super powered teams made up of powerful teenagers, I have grown quite attached to The Runaways. The first story arc was great and after that it has been pretty hit or miss for me, but I still love the team themselves. Thankfully the recent series bringing the team back together by Rainbow Rowell has been quite solid both with characters and story. I think that a lot of it has to do with the fact that she is a YA author and usually spends her time writing about teen characters. I started to slowly watch the Hulu series and so far I like it quite a bit too.

    5. Klara Prast
    6. Xavin
    7. Victor Mancha
    8. Gertrude Yorkes
    9. Alex Wilder
    10. Leapfrog
    I have a question:
    Is the comic version and the novel version of the runaways in the same timeline as the series? And in the same universe?

    Actually never heard of _The Runaways_ until the show went into production (and the current trailers), and I was just watching a 'The History of..' video last night about them; they sound really interesting, I'm more interested in checking out the show now. It seems like it should do fine as a series actually just based off of what I learned from this video (The CW would have been a good place for them over Hulu, in my uninformed opinion). Can't wait for your character-focused videos of each member.

    • @k0kiss
      @k0kiss 6 лет назад +1

      Chris Dixon More like ABC or Freeform. CW is owned by WB that's why the DC shows are on it. And looking at the trailers they are way better off at Hulu with the great practical effects and CGI

    • @ChrisDixon__
      @ChrisDixon__ 6 лет назад

      Thanks for the correction, I mentioned CW but was actually thinking of/meant Freeform 🤦🏾. I'm unfamiliar with the lineup on Hulu (only know a few shows) but based off the trailers of Runaways, the nice practical effects and CGI, I agree with your comment about Hulu being a good place for the show.
      (coming from someone that never heard of The Runaways until this year, so my opinion was based off of them being teens with abilities and Freeform being a decent place for those shows e.g Cloak & Dagger, Riverdale, etc).

    I want to read comics but I don't know where to start and I have a long way to catch up

      Just pick up a book and start. I know it seems scary, intimidating, and like you want to know anything, but just start. That's all you need to do.

    I was thinking about the DC carecter's. (Young Justice s. 2) For me, a person who is not as much of a comic reader (yet), it's actually easy to make that mistake. Just came from the Marvel tl'dr: runaweys.
