4.0

The second volume in the Eisner nominated Runaways reboot. Chase, Nico, Gert, Old Lace (the dinosaur), the head of Victor the cyborg, and Molly are all back living in the old Runaways underground mansion. Someone has to drive Molly to school everyday, and Chase and Nico are both looking for jobs, and Karolina keeps sleeping over for movie and game nights. It would be prefect, expect some damn thing always seems to crop up: an evil best friend with a magical cupcake, a Doombot, a crush, a kiss, a breakup. Anka's art is gorgeous as always, and Rowell keeps the story moving while taking care with the emotional moments.
