Who Will Die in Runaways #30? And Will the Series Survive?

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2019 12:59:42 -0600

You know, now that we think about it, it was all in the name of the storyline the whole time. Runaways #30 is hitting stores from Marvel Comics in February, and it's the final issue of the Canon Fodder arc (get it? it's a pun). And as the solicitation teases, fans can expect a "painful twist" coming from the issue in true Runaways tradition.

Does that mean for sure that someone is going to die? Not necessarily, but between the title of the storyline and that tease, it does seem likely. It's also unknown whether the series will continue after this issue, based on tweets by writer Rainbow Rowell from September:

Then I crossed my fingers and clicked my heels together, and WISHED REALLY HARD for a sixth arc.

There's a really good chance that your library is stocking the Runaways collections. And if not, they'd probably order them for you. Libraries appreciate requests! And library sales count with publishers.

We're clicking our heels together and wishing too, not just for our favorite characters to survive, but for Runaways to continue for many more issues. Check out the solicit for Runaways #30 below and the full Marvel February solicitations here.
