Runaways Vol. 3, #1

Runaways Vol. 3, #1; Terry Moore & Humberto Ramos - Marvel Comics

From comic creator of Strangers in Paradise and more recently Echo, comes Terry Moore's new Marvel project with artist; Humberto Ramos (Crimson, Out There & Wolverine: Civil War) - Runaways Volume 3. Terry follows-up previous writers; Brian K. Vaughn and Joss Whedon on the teenage angst book.


Runaways deals with a group of teens who's parents are super villains, they try to make up for the evil doings that their parents have done. See what Moore and Ramos can do with the Runaways, as they return to L.A. Great jump-on point for new readers.


Come see the beginning of a whole new Runaways! Comics legend Terry Moore (Strangers in Paradise, Echo) and super-star artist Humberto Ramos (X-MEN, WOLVERINE, SPIDER-MAN) run back to Los Angeles with your favorite teen heroes. But it’s not the same city they left so long ago. The Runaways try to stay off the radar, but the sins of their parents won’t make that possible

Trade of the week - WATCHMEN


Written by Alan Moore (V For Vendetta, Killing Joke, From Hell); Art by Dave Gibbons (Green Lantern Corps).


It all begins with the paranoid delusions of a half-insane hero called Rorschach. But is Rorschach really insane or has he in fact uncovered a plot to murder super-heroes and, even worse, millions of innocent civilians? On the run from the law, Rorschach reunites with his former teammates in a desperate attempt to save the world and their lives, but what they uncover will shock them to their very core and change the face of the planet! Following two generations of masked superheroes from the close of World War II to the icy shadow of the Cold War comes this groundbreaking comic story — the story of The Watchmen.
