Runaways Vol 1 Pride and Joy Brian K Vaughan Adrian Alphona Books

Runaways collects into 3 volumes covering 11 books (or 3 books if you buy the larger volume version) plus two side books. Volume 1 (Books 1-3) and Volume 2 (Books 4-8) were really, really good. Volume 3 (Books 9-1) was mediocre and ends kind of abruptly. The two size stories (Civil War: Young Avengers & Runaways and Secret Invasion: Runaways/Young Avengers) are alright but not really essential. If you want to read Runaways, it is a series to simply read in order since it's not that long. However, I wouldn't fault anyone who stopped reading after finishing Book 8 (Dead End Kids) and didn't bother with the last three books.

Here's the complete reading order for the main series:
Runaways, Vol. 1: Pride & Joy
Runaways, Vol. 2: Teenage Wasteland
Runaways Vol. 3: The Good Die Young
Runaways Volume 4: True Believers (Runaways (Numbered Paperback))
Runaways, Vol. 5: Escape to New York
Runaways Volume 6: Parental Guidance
Runaways, Vol. 8: Dead End Kids
Runaways - Volume 9: Dead Wrong
Runaways: Rock Zombies
Runaways: Homeschooling

(There's apparently a link limit, but the last two are also on Amazon.)

This is a great comic if you’re not ready/willing to splurge for the omnibus and just want to try it out.

The storytelling and art are amazing and should appeal to readers tween to adult. The themes are universal and relatable (teen angst, high expectations parents, being attracted to your goth friend) and the diverse cast teaches young readers a great message without ever being preachy. Most importantly it’s fun, with snarky, MCU-esque dialogue at every turn and loads of great action. One of my all time favorite comics.
Bought this along with the first issue out of slight curiosity and want of something i've never heard of before. I would go a lot more into this on the review of the first book, but to keep it simple, Runaways is just awesome. Plain and simple.

I mean...They have a velociraptor pet! A frog ship! An eleven year old who decks wolverine out of a church and hurls cars at Colossus!

If you got the first book and thought that was a good place to stop, you're dead wrong!
I'd probably give the actual story 4 stars, but this is the lowest quality graphic novel I've ever seen. The book is shrunk down to almost half the size of a comic, and the paper is incredibly cheap. The absolute worst thing about it though, is the binding, as the book literally fell apart in my hands as I was reading it. The build quality of the book is unacceptable, and I would send it back, but I think it's too late as I bought it a couple of months ago but didn't read it until now.

For the story itself, I enjoyed it, even though the actions of the characters were a little goofy. I liked the idea of a group of unknown but very powerful super villains having kids that upon learning of their parents evil ways runaway from home. They're an interesting collection of characters, although for their design it's a little odd that the youngest one looks like one of the oldest of the group (and talks like a child). For the parents, they look cool and appropriately varied and evil, but their reasoning really bothered me. The first thing they do when their kids (who they love) learn about them, instead of trying to reassure them, is to attack them and then when that doesn't work, threaten to kill the youngest of the kids in her sleep if they all don't immediately come home. The reasoning of the kids was a little off too, you'd think they'd want to say something to their parents to get their side of things, but they're so quick to runaway/call the police. Still, I think I'll continue the series, although I hope the rest of them aren't produced in a similar fashion.
