Runaways (2 Scans from Volume 2, Issue 12 + A Request!)

[measureslife]

Hi everyone! I'm new here, and it's nice to meet all of you! :) This community is amazing, and I'm happy to be a member!

I have a request. I recently found out that the Volume 1 Hardcover for Runaways has a few extras, like character sketches and an expanded proposal of the series from Brian K. Vaughan. Does anyone have scans of the extras? My friend loves the series, and her birthday's near the end of the month. I'd really like to show them to her as one part of her gift!

Thank you!

Also, here's a scene from Volume 2, Issue 12. :D

Can't help with the request, but welcome to s_d and congratulations on your first posting!

Normally I'm a robin kid of guy, but I LOVE those pigeons! (Are those the Goodfeathers making a cameo in there?)

[evilsneak]

Those are definitely the Goodfeathers.

Are you coo-ing my bird?!?

Thank you!

And I love the pigeons too! Adrian Alphona's art is amazing! I love the great detail -- the pigeons with the hotdog, hamburger, and wallet.

Think of sad episodes of M*A*S*H. That'll get you a helicopter.

[measureslife]

Haha, yes, that should work! :D

First toff, Welcome!

While I can confirm that those are in the hardcover of Vol. 1, along with a fan letter from Joss Whedon and other things, I do not have scans of them.

They definitely are; I've got the book somewhere, but I don't have a scanner, I'm afraid. Although if I did, I'd be worried about breaking said scanner, the book's that big.

There are also designs and sketches from Alphona, plus a collection of Molly's hats being worn by colourist Christina Strain in the back section of Volumes 2 and 3 in hardcover, which covers the entire second series up to the end of Vaughan's run.

Oh, awesome! Thank you for the information! I didn't know that there were more extras in Volumes 2 and 3. :)

[mrstatham]

They are really good. Again, I'm really sorry I don't have a scanner at the moment, because I would have loved to help.

But yeah, the big hardcovers are amazing for their extras. The first one has Vaughan's original pitch for the series in there as well as Whedon's letter and the designs. Oh, and given the apparent rarity of it, the Vol 2 hardcover also contains the Free Comic Book Day Runaways/X-Men crossover, which is a short, fun little story that's actually in-continuity when the Runaways meet the X-Men again.

[measureslife]

It's no problem at all! :) Thank you very much for your kind offer!

The extras sound great! Did the original pitch differ much from the series? :D

[measureslife]

Thank you!

And thank you for the information! :)

I'd be happy to try and take some really clear high quality photos of the extras that look almost like scans, but I so do not trust myself to scan a hardcover without ruining it.

[measureslife]

Photos would be wonderful! Thank you so much for your kind offer! :D

And I apologize for my request for scans! I didn't realize until now how large the hardcover was and how silly and impractical it was of me to ask for scans, haha. :(
