Runaways

Brian K. Vaughan

When six ordinary teenagers discover that their parents are actually supervillains running a secret criminal organization, their world shatters. Forced to go underground and fend for themselves, Alex, Karolina, Gert, Chase, Molly, and Nico must learn to trust one another while evading the very people who raised them. This groundbreaking series combines coming-of-age drama with superhero action, exploring themes of identity, loyalty, and the lengths we go to protect those we love. Brian K. Vaughan crafts a compelling narrative that subverts the typical superhero origin story, focusing instead on the emotional and moral complexities of teens thrust into extraordinary circumstances. The result is a thrilling, character-driven adventure that redefined what young adult comics could be.
