Runaways, Vol. 2: Teenage Wasteland

Runaways, Vol. 2: Teenage Wasteland - Brian K. Vaughan, Adrian Alphona

Like all good sequels, Volume 2 uses the same formula, doubles the mix and answers some questions.

I've said it in my review of Volume 1, but 'Runaways' really does a good job of modernizing the Marvel superhero format to appeal to jaded youngsters strung out on Shonen Jump and what passes for Nickelodeon these days.

...When did I get so old? Pretty soon I just might convince myself that the NES was superior to modern game consoles and that nu-metal was a good idea.
