Gotta love the Runaways and always gonna love how Nico has such unintentional rizz that she canonically hooked up with like half the group lmao.

(With 'friends' I mean 'best friends' obviously they're all friends)

Xavin (Earth-616) from Marvel's Runaways Comics

Xavin in Marvel's Voices Infinity Comic #58

(Some of) The Runaways by Adrian Alphona

[mostlyrunaways]

For anyone who doesn't know Runaways currently has a short (?) run going on over in Marvel's Voices Infinity Comic. It picks up right where the comic ended and is following Karolina, Xavin and the Light Brigad as they try to get Karolina a healer and restore her powers. It's a nice little story so far and it's funny watching Karolina swing the Staff of One around.

Marvel's Voices: Infinity Comic #58 (2023)

written by Terry Blas art by Bruno Oliveira & Dee Cunniffe

I just answered a couple questions in the comments on this post, and I figured I should give a quick update for any Young Avengers / Runaways fans that aren't on Marvel Unlimited. Karolina and Xavin are main characters on the current run of the Marvel's Voices webseries on Unlimited.

Towards the end of Runaways (2017), Karolina suffered injuries that left her in poor health, and was unable to use her natural light abilities.

She reached out the the Light Brigade, who agreed to bring her to a Majesdanian healer named Vadrayk. Nico gave Karolina the Staff of One and requested that Karolina abandon it in outer space.

As you may recall, the planet Majesdane was destroyed by the former Skrull Empire, and Karolina's people, the Majesdanians, are now interstellar refugees.

Xavin, formerly a political prisoner, is currently the leader of the Light Brigade.

Teddy, as the ruler of the newly-formed Kree-Skrull Alliance, has promised to help Xavin and the Brigade find a new home for the Majesdanians.

Goebig, a friend of Teddy's who is currently heading relief efforts for the refugees of planet Havaya, joined the Light Brigade in the hopes that they could find a home for both the Majesdanian and Havayan peoples, together. Ambris, a runaway from the planet Ohtli, has also joined the Brigade-- both of these characters debuted in earlier runs of the Voices webseries.

The Majesdanian refugees were sheltering on a remote planet where they were attacked by giant ant monsters, and Vadrayk disappeared in the chaos. Karolina and the Brigade are currently on a search and rescue mission, with Karolina using the Staff as a weapon until she can recover her powers. For some reason she's wearing a version of her wedding outfit from Runaways.

And that's you missed on Glee!

I think the Runaways comic members are so funny because they vary from a normal but smart guy who turned out to be a traitor, to a lesbian alien, to a preteen girl, who can lift a monster the size of a building and then fall asleep, to a girl who dies and comes back two years later, to a regular dude, to a cyborg destined to be a villain, to a genderfluid alien child of skrull warlords, to a bisexual goth witch who's the main leader, to another preteen girl who can control plants they brought back with them from the time they time travelled to 1907, to a dinosaur, to a telepath cat, to the son of a bunch of giant gods that wanted to destroy humanity, and a Doctor Doom robot. They became more chill after a few of the members became legal adults and a few of them were in other teams but as teens their first instinct when seeing other heroes (mostly adults) coming at them, like Wolverine, Spider-Man, the Young Avengers or The Punisher, was punching them, throwing fireballs at them or yeeting a car at them. Their only requirements to join the group was basically disliking adults and authority figures and having horrible parents, and that one almost got them killed once because they let a vampire in thinking it was a kid with bad parents and he nearly killed them. They're a family and they're incredibly random and messy. And I miss those idiots every day lmao. Bring them back, make another run idk

nico's jealousy of xavin stemming from her extremely low sense of self worth more than anything... it getting so bad she has to verbally TELL xavin that karolina loves her even though Karolina hasn't technically told her that yet (bc she has to convince them BOTH)... and she can't even actually hate xavin because all her and xavin want to do is keep karolina safe and if nothing else nico can respect that... also nico not being able to believe that karolina wants HER when she could have anyone oh nico minoru you are so tragic !!!

is nico EVER happy
