Rainbow Rowell, Kris Anka, and Matthew Wilson have masterfully crafted RUNAWAYS #7. From plot, to characterization, to art, this issue may just be one of the best of the reboot so far. Pair that with a unique tale about superheroes on their days off, and you have a story set for greatness. Read Full Review

Wonderfully scripted and very well thought off. The series is still consistently exciting and manages to keep things interesting and fresh. Its definitely a plus for the fans to know that the creative team is also addressing some of the series major plot holes. Read Full Review
Now that the team is back together and the series shifts into regular gear, the Runaways relaunch is not dropping the realistic angle that makes it such an awesome comic in the first place! I love it! Read Full Review
With character interactions front and center, "Runaways" #7 feels like hanging out with old friends in the best way possible. Read Full Review
Runaways #7 was the dealbreaker for this series. After a solid first story arc, everything came down to how they would move forward from their reunion. You can't just throw them together without direction or pushing them to work towards stability. Overall satisfying character development and set-up for the next plot to unfold. Read Full Review
Issue #7 of Runaways steers clear of the dazzling array of powers and action that our heroes are always flexing and involved in. Instead, Rowell opts for the superb relationship building she's known for as our Runaways family dynamic gets that 2018 update. Read Full Review

I'll keep reading but I hope something original starts happening. These are amazing characters who deserve to do something fantastic. I really want a little more connection with the story and the art like we saw in some past issues. Read Full Review
Business as usual for the Runaways - school, jobs, romance - is pretty enthralling. Every character gets illuminating attention. All the internal relationships are fascinating, so the addition of an external one - Molly and her middle-school BFF Abigail - fits well. But of course, the new link develops a sinister overcast that promises drama soon. This issue is really a testament to how thoroughly and successfully the creators have made their team endearing. It's full of prosaic minutiae, but because we love the characters, it all matters. Also, as this issue's first letter-writer notes, the art tells us just as much about the Runaways as the words, and that's surely to Kris Anka's credit.
Something has me hooked in this series and I think it is the art and characterization. The characters just feel so real.
