So much love for this series. I liked the fact that he had an afro, and it's free flowing and easy, the fact that he was a geek, and his character was so complex that I wasn't even mad when **SPOILER**.




Normally, I'd suck the spit from my teeth with rancour and go, "Had to be the brother, huh?" but Vaughan wrote him so well.

But still, I wish they'd put black girls in comics like this - not that I begrudge Alex and Nico (I don't, because they were GOOD characters who just happened to be poc- and I mean 'good' as in well rounded, et al) but you don't see teenage black girls much, and that's a shame.

But still, I only have love for the original Runaways. I'd only hope the movie (if it were to be made) was half as complex and rounded like the original volume of the comic is.
