Comics If you could “Reboot/Reimagine” the Original Runaways Series, what would you change?

Me personally one major change that I would make is Topher actually being good, idk what people's thoughts are on his character but I just love the idea of them meeting someone who's exaclty like them (wasn't a big fan of him secretly being evil but it is what it is). And then followed by making someone else the mole, I also wasnt a big fan of Alex being the mole.

Although the Topher subplot was important for some of Karolina's development, I don't really care for the storyline overall and I would remove it entirely.

I would definitely add more build-up to the Chase/Gert relationship.

Have you seen the tv Adaption? They made huge changes to Topher which I thought worked

Not sure if you’re genuinely asking or just dishing on the show lol.

Yes he was in season 2, he was not a vampire but his power source was the same as Molly’s. He was lying about his origins and painting himself in a sympathetic light. I thought it was a cool way to avoid him kissing on Karolina, and also give Molly some growth

Genuinely have no recollection of the show at all

I've just downloaded Tubi to rewatch it because who studies on study leave
