New episode of Runaways is out, what did Sup Forums think?

Five minutes in and Tina already proves she's a monster

It's only a matter of time now

Since when has Doctor Doom been involved with the Runaways?

I liked it. Hope there's more Dr Cole Doom. Also, anyone else think the password Alex typed in was actually the name of Nico's dead sister?

It's either "Amy" or he was told in advance.

Really it's looking like if there is a traitor, Alex and Chase are the biggest contenders.

>they make Chase the traitor

How perturbed would you all be?

I hope that chase is not the traitor but he still somehow works with his based dad for science

Chase has to be a fake out, they're leaning way too hard into it.

Sup Forums and Sup Forums (I imagine they're here shitposting when Sup Forums gets involved) would explode, but I personally don't know how I'd feel. Chase would be a change from the book so no one would see it coming, but they're telegraphing a lot of it. Probably to throw us off Alex's trail.

>Karolina getting Chase to do whatever just because Gert called her out on liking girls
This weekly dose of Gert getting BTFO is pretty great. Too bad Chase is going to get rejected pretty hard

It's Ultron in disguise

Well, everyone thought Adrian Chase was Vigilante and not Prometheus, so it won't be the first time actual comic book nerds get rused.

>show devolves into cuckquean and cuckolding porn

very nice

>Gert's dad steals the vial of ayylmao semen
He's cemented his death, hasn't he?

If it means I get to watch Karolina get dicked down, I'm all for it. Of course the hottest one would be lesbian.

I'm tired of the shipping. The open pining that makes up most of their personalities at this point. Gert and Chase's abrupt getting together made it entertaining. Chase though Karolina was hot but this is over the top. Continually using her to give him motivation might be how they make him the mole. Because he'll flip out because she's a lesbian and go to the dark side.

I'm tired of them devaluing the parents. Now they're powers come from this one fucking guy? Oh wait I guess Gert's parents made Old lace without him proving they're still the best parents.

Molly and Gert are the absolute most obnoxious characters in this show for me and Chase 's entire story certers around him reacting to other people instead of having a role.

Still not running away. Why even call it Runaways.

>>Gert's dad steals the vial of ayylmao semen
That was so not subtle. Shakey camp following his blatant moves the whole way with a room of people watching.

am i stupid or what, im not catching any of these “chase is the mole” hints you guys are talking about

>his dad drops to the floor as soon as he calls out his cheating wife

mothafuckin pro move right there

Because he suddenly got buddy buddy with his dad and dotes on him. But they seem to be doing that with a lot of them now. If they wanted to give them time with their parents they should have done that before they saw them off a chick and know they offed 15 others.

why is the staff of one being explained as an invention REEEEEEEE

What's Dr Doom dads characters powerset in the runaways comic?

He did not exist. Karolina's parents were both Aliens.

It's not, watch the show

Why do these threads die so fast? Is it Hulu or is the show that uninteresting?

I read the comic a long time ago, but seem to remember that Nico's shtick was that she could only use a certain spell once. I guess they got rid of that concept, because it's easier to make a generic CG-effect for the stuff, instead of having to create new ones every single time.

They don't like using magic in the shows

They just write it off as an advanced interdimensional science

Have they not run away yet?

Nope.

>If they wanted to give them time with their parents they should have done that before they saw them off a chick and know they offed 15 others.
I somewhat agree, but then we'd be moving really fucking slowly and people would complain about the kids not seeing the PRIDE meetings yet. Like what's going on with having them running away. The running away part is almost guaranteed to be saved for the finale, given the character building they've done and the lack of a midseason finale model. They probably knew it'd be sequel bait from the time they penned the first episode. It's a surprisingly solid show

That was something they introduced in like issue 20 though

I'd be pretty darn steamed.

No they don't

Using one spell at a time was there from the beginning. She got screwed when she tried to repeat "Freeze", summoning pelicans instead. And she wasted her teleport spell during a tiff with Karolina leaving her vulnerable later during the vampire arc.

Explain why they would make the staff not magic?

Probably the same as Karolina's. Flight, gay rave skin, gay rave beams, alien physiology. He mentioned having a perfect immune system.

Because that's the mandate from up high. They did the same to Ghost Rider, Dr.Strange and Asgard. They really like Clarke's third law.

They didn't, they even said this episode it was magic. It even uses Nico's blood

They only did it to Asgard and that was retconned in the next film, at least fucking watch what you are bitching

Nico wishes it was magic, her mother is straight up saying its not

What are you talking about? They keep beating that in. "They aren't gods, they are aliens".
Ancient One talked to Strange about there being no difference.
Same with Ghost Rider.

inb4 Dr Doom's glow is more reddish because he's evil

> It's a surprisingly solid show

We disagree. Perhaps if it wasn't my favourite comic and basically the reason I read comics at all.

If they wanted to do all this shit they could have held back on the death ritual and just had the parents being skeevy and scheming. They barely even had all the kids together for a decent amount of time. They end up separating or pairing them off for more shipping shit. Alex doesn't have nearly as much time to show he's smart or actually the Mole, if they're even doing that plot at all. They've tied all the parents into this one guy instead of them being their own villainous stereotypes.

Because it looks like they are trying to tie all their power sets into technology. Karolina is made because of whatever Doom dad's tech is. He gave them the staff. Chase has tech. Gert's parents made Old lace with technology granted she was made in the comic but not by them. I'm guessing Molly was either engineered or is a robot and there is even a slight hint that Nico is a clone, though that might just be clumsy writing.

They're trying to give them all a single source for their powers.

I think this is one of the benefits of focusing on the parents and their relationships with the kids. Its setting up that a few of them could be traitor.
Alex because of the comic.
Nico's growing empathy for her mom.
Chase and his dad.
Molly and whatevers happening with Alex's mom.

This show, like The Gifted, is so full of Waifus.

Do I want Karolina Deans sheltered, gay innocence?

Nicos feisty, yet so vulnerable rebelliousness...

Or Tinas evil, evil, sexy mommy?

We don't even know they're going to go with a traitor. They've changed the plot so much they don't even need that element.

I would fuck Karolina until she liked it

Stop eating off lead plates.

who's we?

Me and that user.

I like it. Gert's parents are best. Gert and Molly can fuck off. Old Lace is cute and not too bad considering the rest of the lackluster effects in the show

Great show, hoping this season of SHIELD tops it though

is it worth watching or is it bad like most of the Netflix stuff

it's worth watching if you're ok with teen drama and not too autistic about not muh

is it as bad as riverdale

it's actually good, not ironic-good like Riverdale

is the teen drama insufferable

Is the dinosaur there yet?

not really. It's not the center of attention, anyway

>ayylmao semen
you mean totally-not-wolverine semen?

>he heals so he's Wolverine!

if Jonah can heal by himself why did he spent years lying on a bed in covered by psoriasis?

because he clearly can't heal himself

>. Alex doesn't have nearly as much time to show he's smart or actually the Mole
they spent like 15 minutes setting up password "password" thing

>"it is science nico"
>"made in the wizard labs by special technology"
>not explained by science

The hell do you make GR not mystic?

...

They didn't. They literally talk about Johnny escaping from Hell

wait, AoS Ghost Rider was Johnny, not Robbie?

They both showed up

From the complete and utter lack of shitposting, im not sure if this show is good or bad

am I going to have to watch AoS now or is it still terrible

>Grieving and depressed goth teenager desperate for magic to be real says the staff she barely understands is magic
>CEO of a major tech company and the one teaching her how to use the staff and explaining how it works says its not magic

Gee I wonder who to believe?

Besides, anyone named who has "Chase" as a name or a surname on an American show is always a total faggot for some reason.
House M.D. is the shining example of that.

It's shit

They can't get the simple concept of the series right.
Instead parent drama nobody cares.

nar its pretty ok, the last season was the ghost rider stuff, and this season they are in space

Best show Marvel is putting out

is Daisy still insufferable

>cringe goth girl
>shithead black rich kid
i haven't read the comics but i cant really warm to these characters

When was she insufferable to you?

Black kid is a backstabber in the comics and fucking dies.

always?

ok maybe i should just read the comics cause im half way into the first ep and its rubbing me the wrong way
the pink hear feminist can go fucking jump

yes but every other character is petty cool and she gets taken down a peg or two

Gert gets repeatedly BTFO, it's great

ok just for that i stick with it, but the fucking Asian goth cliche is not bearable

Just stick with it

>BTFO
i just read the first issue all i say why the hell didnt they follow the comic more closer, fuck the dead friend shit just weights it down

>Gert's butthurt feminist group meets up
>ditches them to go hang with Karolina
sides.jpg

I assumed he correctly guessed the password was "Nico", which he didn't want to tell her since knowing her mother had such sentimentality towards her might make her reconsider turning her in.

I thought the password was whatever her sister's name was

That Molly is still disgusting.

she looks fine when she's dressing age-appropriately and not like comics Molly

How can Dr. Strange not be magic?
Did they pull a Gwen?

Is Molly cute?

Could you imagine being tag teamed by Nico and her Evil Mommy, letting them both dominate you?

I fucking hate comics Nico but since when is Asian goth a cliche?
Are you functionally retarded?

No, but Gert is.

An un-cute Molly?
For shame!

>Molly at the end of the episode
Jesus Christ what a fucking idiot

>Nico, if you expect me to allow you to be sexually active with your little friend here you're going to have to learn how to control boys, that's how I've kept your father all these years after all
>on the bed and pants down NOW, young man
>mom, I thought white guys were meant to have big dicks?
>*sigh* hand me the staff

Keep going
