Just when you thought they were out, “One World Under Doom” pulls them back in! This June, Marvel’s coolest band of misfits are back in Runaways, a five-issue limited comic book series by award-winning novelist Rainbow Rowell and superstar artist Elena Casagrande. A tie-in to “One World Under Doom”, this new chapter of the fan-favorite title kicks off when the Runaways’ newest member, a reprogrammed DOOMBOT, causes the team to become a prime target of EMPEROR DOOM!
The upcoming series marks Rowell’s exciting return to the characters. During her celebrated 2017-2021 run, Rowell pushed the Runaways in bold new directions, shifted their dynamics, and evolved their legacy as the wayward children of supervillains. Now, she shatters their status quo once again by placing them in the crosshairs of the greatest supervillain there is!
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BREAK A FAMILY?
Marvel’s best and scrappiest found family has seen better days. Nico Minoru has lost her girlfriend, her best friend and her magic. With Karolina, Chase and Alex all out of the picture, Gert’s doing her best to shake the remaining Runaways out of running on autopilot. But when Doctor Doom tries to reclaim one of their own – Doombot! – it’s time to start running…
Runaways has always been home to trendsetting artwork, and Elena Casagrande, known for her Eisner-winning work on Black Widow, will continue the tradition of making it the most stylish super hero book on stands!
Check out the main cover by acclaimed artist Stephanie Hans, variant covers by superstar artists Peach Momoko and Ejikure, and a look at Casagrande’s take on the team in a special wraparound variant cover. Preorder Runaways #1 at your local comic shop and stay tuned for more “One World Under Doom” news later this week.
