Runaways vol. 3 #11

A new villain attacks the home in Malibu.

OLD LACE, NOOOOOOO

Damn, I'm going to miss Old Lace. Having a pet dinosaur on the team was just right amount of Ridiculous and Awesome that propelled classic Runaways to 11 out of 10. Though this is not an unforeseen event. Writers haven't known what to do with Old Lace for several story arcs now. Lately Old Lace would only be seen laying around in the background of the Hostel, at best. At worst, Old Lace is a complete non-entity.

At the same time, I breath a sigh of relief for all of the remaining characters who didn't buy it.

On the plus side, in this issue everyone acts in-character, dialog flows well, the art is easy on the eyes, each characters is recognizable for who they are (Chase isn't K's twin anymore and Vic is no longer the prettiest girl :p). If the story-arc is tight I think this might be Runaway's return to form. Huzzahs for the new creative team!
