Marvel's Runaways

OK, just coming up to the conclusion of series one of Runaways, and I'm quite impressed-though it definitely takes a lot of liberties with the comics continuity. Thoughts, anyone?

I think I prefer it to the comic

It's certainly one of the better adaptations, and the characters are perfectly cast. It's a shame it took them to the very last episode to actually get around to running away, but never mind, I guess it at least guarantees season two.

It's on my "to watch" list, but nowhere near getting to it.

There is just so much stuff out there at the moment, isn't there? Who would have imagined twenty years ago there'd be so many comics related TV shows and movies that it would be almost impossible to keep up with them all?

Oh, I agree. Given both the paucity and the quality of prior tv/movies about superheroes, I'm not complaining TOO much.

Yeah, maybe by the end of season two they'll have actually left the city. But I wouldn't hold my breath

Maybe it should have been called "Walkaways"?

If they were toddlers, it could be "Crawlaways"!
