This is RUNAWAYS #14 – 18 COMPLETE PARENTAL GUIDANCE / RETURN OF THE PRIDE STORY ARC in VF and better condition.

Written by BRIAN K. VAUGHAN, with art by ADRIAN ALPHONA.

What can you do when the past return to take revenge? Well, maybe you will try to fix it as soon as you can and be loyal to you mates, Right? This isn't exactly what happen here, we have, as in other numbers, a little hormonal thing happen around that, at her age, only can finish with a fight. When they "fix" that thing the story continue as good as always.

This story has great pacing, action, dark deeds, heroic deeds, and the bickering you'd expect among teens. It’s page-turning and gasp-inducing and exciting.

There are some great developments in terms of both plot and character.  There was more focus on Molly that emphasized how behind her childlike-demeanor/behavior, she is very intelligent and able to effectively strategize and execute plans.  Karolina's return to the group with her fiancee Xavin in tow was also a welcome change; she very much is the heart of the group and provides a peaceful/optimistic view to the Runaways. A big theme in this volume is the issue of choice and destiny, and which one impacts and accurately defines the future.

Adrian Alphona’s artwork hits every note in a sketch-y but subdued style that's clearly influenced by manga, but by no means dominated by it. it also borrows from the straight-lined, square-jawed style of the 50s and 60s.
