Thanks, AL... computer problems kept me from updating for some of this week's new releases. I'll edit the title for #2.

Except that I doubt you could reach Thanos or Kang using a regular telephone. Or Magneto, for that matter, since I hear "technology" doesn't work in Genosha. Whoever it is seems to be rich and powerful, so I'm thinking Kingpin (unless he's dead), Silvermane, or Doom.

Well, Vic seems to have electric powers of a sort so who would that point to?

Doesn't have to mean anything.
With that last page, it's either the Kingpin, or they're trying very hard to make you think it's the Kingpin as a red herring.

Re: the latest issue.
Wow, I’m glad I picked this series up! The characters are more likeable each and every issue it appears. I have *got* to get my hands on the first series. I think Karolina might be my favorite now, but I’m still too new a fan to be sure yet.
The best part of the issue for me had to be the dialogue of the Doom-Bot. Let’s face it: I was pretty certain that somehow Doom wouldn’t be his father. And I was further certain that it was a Doom-Bot and not Doom they were facing. BUT, the writing was so spot on and the dialogue was so funny, that I couldn’t help but keep forgetting this wasn’t the real Doom! Calling the girls his harem, throwing one girl into the other flawlessly, calling another a dwarf…not bad for a one-issue fake villain!
And then, I have to admit I was shocked: Ultron! And what an entrance! And then it clicked with me: parents so far have been time-travelers, sorcerers, mad-scientists, aliens, etc.—of course there’d be a robot one! It’s the next classic genre of comic book villain!
Each issue leaves me wanting more.
And it appears that the guy helping team “Excelsior” might not actually be bad, which would be very refreshing, since that idea has been done to death.

Does this mean that Victor isn't biologically human? Or is he some sort of 'hybrid'? And just how would *that* be accomplished?
This really makes a Hank Pym and Vision guest-appearance a must.
Karolina's great-- but I really like Old Lace... Molly's fun, too.
So you haven't read the first series yet? Do you know what happened? I have a couple of guesses who the shadowy 'Excelsior' advisor might be from that series' end...

No clue, just that they were betrayed by a boy in their group! (Stupid boys!)
Besides that, all I know is the basics on the Pride and that Cloak and Dagger appeared. When I finally buy/read it, it should be a pleasant surprise...

i think victor was just spliced together from human stock by ultron.
so...unless the others wake up gert and chase are going to have their hands full. chase is my new favorite.
i'm guessing who the shadow excelsior benefactor is. "he" better show up soon!

Runaways #7 preview: http://www.newsarama.com/forums/printthread.php?threadid=40284) Right now, I'm laughing at SHIELD not being able to keep a frelling single bee locked up since Ben Reilly beat Swarm last time. I mean, all you'd need would be a tuppaware dish

I just picked up the 4 digests over the weekend...Id been wanting to get into this series for awhile but never got around to it. And can I just say...wowza! also Gadzooks...This is a Truly Truly cool comic. And the Art...Fantastic! Now my Sister has stolen the books and refuses to return them.
Remember : It's not technically a suckerpunch if you yell ''DEFEND YOURSELF SPROCKER!'' two seconds before you let him have it.

This series is beautiful. I've just picked up the first three digests myself. I also went to a little Saturday afternoon thing put on by the Toronto Public Libary and met Adrian Alphona. I got a quick sketch of Nico too.
The preliminary pencil work from the sketch book that he had with him blew me away. The inked art loses a lot.

Ohhh lucky! Can we see your sketch? I got a Nico sketch once by Takeshi Miyazawa (who did a couple of fill-in issues here and there): Nico
