Nico's getting her own Mystic Arcanna special: MYSTIC ARCANA: SISTER GRIMM
Written by C. B. CEBULSKI & DAVID SEXTON
Penciled by PHIL NOTO & ERIC NGUYEN
Cover by MARKO DJURDJEVIC
Bestowed with powers she barely understands, how does one of Marvel's youngest magic users, Sister Grimm from Runaways, deal with her newfound mystic abilities... when all she wants to do is be a normal teenager?! As her parents' past comes back to haunt her, Nico Minoru learns that there may be more to her magical lineage than even she could have imagined. One look in the sacred Black Mirror sends Nico looking for answers she may not like discovering. PLUS: The final chapter of Ian McNee’s quest. Will he possess the four cornerstones of the magic? What shocking revelation does he learn about his past and what does this mean to the Marvel Universe?

This was announced months back, even if it's just solicited (it's set between Runaways v1 #17 & 18). See the Mystic Arcana thread (the title of which should really be despecified from the BK issue). And it helps if you spell "Arcana" right

Okay, Greyboot.   Though, really, I did just quote the solicit text  ... maybe I was just channeling the misspelling from the Squadron Supreme character...?

$#!+, already?! I didn't realize Whedon was only on for six issues. Terry Moore should be a good fit, but Ramos? Just.... no. This isn't a book I want looking THAT cartoon-y; I wish they were keeping Mike Ryan on the title.

No comments on the current run?  I just caught up with my reading... reread 1 and 2 before finishing out the first arc. Moore is good here... I especially love his Molly. And let me eat some Humble Pie regarding Ramos on the art chores. Other than his Old Lace, which is kind of weird, his work's been great.

I just couldn't get into it, and dropped it with #2. Without Vaughn at the helm, the series has suffered, and I just don't have an invested interest without a creative team I can really get into.

I miss Runaways. Marvel needs this book right now.
In the meantime, I'm enjoying seeing the Runaways parent's battle Iron Man in the latest arc of Iron Man: Legacy. (By "battle", I mean subtly as Iron Man is unaware of their existence...)

OK, i'm crazy late on this book
I am really crazy late on Runaways. I picked up the first trade collecting issues 1-18. I loved it. But I wonder if it continued to be as good so that I should pick up the other 2 trades.

I have been, but it's been a slow burn, as expected. Three issues in, and they haven't even got the gang together yet.
There's a page in the third issue where the crew have snuck into a dorm to visit someone, and they are standing in the hall when a student walks out of her dorm room and sees them. They look like normal teens/twentysomethings, not out of place, except for the bigass honking dinosaur with the nose ring, who turns her head and looks at the student. The student mutters 'nope' and turns and goes back into her room and shuts the door. Old Lace smiles.
I loved that scene.

I'm happy the writer's not ignoring the bad writing from Arena and Undercover, but she's not devoting all her attention to it.
I still can't believe WHAT Tony Stark did in the second issue he is such an ass.
