Marvel has announced Runaways will join Secrets Wars in June, penned by Noelle Stevenson.
Stevenson (Lumberjanes, NIMONA) will write, with interior art and main cover by Sanford Greene (Uncanny Avengers, Wonder Girl), and a variant cover for Issue #1 by Phil Noto. Runaways was created by Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona in 2003, and the series gained critical acclaim, including being named to YALSA’s Top 10 Graphic Novels for Teens list in 2007 (see "YALSA Picks the Top Ten Graphic Novels").
In this iteration, Hayes, Jubilee, Bucky Barnes, Cloak & Dagger, Amadeus Cho, Skaar and other teens from the corners of Battleworld have been chosen to attend a prestigious academy on the planet’s capital. But it turns out the headmaster is actually a super villain, grooming his pupils to become the next generation of super criminals.
"Noelle and Sanford have come up with a fun cast of alternate reality versions of some fan-favorite characters (including original Runaway Molly Hayes), plus a few new characters who we’re really excited about," said editor Wil Moss. "It’s a different take on Runaways, for sure, but that same fresh, adventurous, character-driven spirit of the original series remains the same."
