I think the creative team could have easily pulled off an entire issue from the perspective of Old Lace, but half-an-issue is good too. The story moves along in interesting ways. Read Full Review

Runaways manages to be just as adorable as ever, even as this issue's plot doesn't necessarily pack the largest punch. Read Full Review

This issue is a textbook definition of fill-in and set-up issue, though it isnt entirely without merit or moments of fun. The B-story feels like the better half of them, as the A-story feels like an extended scene that could perhaps have been truncated if not for the need to keep a monthly schedule on the book. It might have been a better approach to end the standoff with the Gibborim in the last issue and then have this issue focus entirely on Old Lace and giving Takeshi Miyazawa more pages to draw.

This series is usually really great. The only reason the score is lower for this issue is because it's only half an issue, with the rest being filler. That first half was really good though.

Man, the artwork really took a dive, there are a couple panels where the chaperone dude, Gib, was clearly drawn without holding a staff and one was Photoshopped in afterwards. The backup story with Old Lace is cute, but can't really substitute for plot advancement.
