First Appearance: Excavator, Excelsior (Turbo II, Phil Urich, Darkhawk, Lightspeed, Ricochet III, Chamber II), Victor Mancha
Death: Gertrude Yorkes (alternate future version)
The runaways have started to take on new threats trying to fill the Pride’s gap, with Nico leading the group. The kids have also found their parents’ old lair beneath the La Brea Tar Pits Museum and made it their new Hostel. Elsewhere in Los Angeles, Excelsior, an outreach program for former teenage super heroes, is assembling for the first time with Turbo, Phil Urich (formerly a Green Goblin), Chamber, Darkhawk, Lighspeed and Ricochet. They are called by a mystery benefactor who offers their outreach program one million dollars in exchange for finding the runaways.
After the kids defeat the Wrecking Crew, the injured future counterpart of Gertrude arrives to the present to warn them of the boy named Victor Mancha, who would grow up to become Victorious and murder every hero in the future. Apparently, Victor’s father is a super-villain and will become the greatest evil in the universe. The adult Gert then dies in Chase’s arms.

Apparently, fifteen years ago, Xavin’s father, the royal leader of Tarnax VII, had led an invasion against Earth but had been stopped by Frank and Leslie Dean, two extraterrestials living on Earth. In exchange for sparing Earth, the Deans had revealed the coordinates of their birth world, Majesdane, which Xavin’s father had long sought to invade. As assurance that the coordinates were real, the Deans had offered their only daughter, Karolina, to be wed with Xavin. Xavin’s warlord parents were both killed in the following war between Tarnax VII and Majesdane. Xavin hoped to end the war by marrying the Majesdane-born Karolina.
The Runaways fight Xavin, but in the end, Karolina agrees to leave with Xavin in order to make up for her parents deeds. However, Karolina doesn’t agree to marry Xavin.

Spider-Man convinces Gertrude and Victor to talk with him in a sushi place that he had saved from Hydro-Man a few months earlier. Meanwhile, Chase convinces Pusher Man that he and Nico were sent by their parents, who he claims to be still alive. Pusher Man gives them the name of Cloak’s impostor and Chase tells him that he had killed a man who tried to steal his car when he was sixteen. When they get back to Earth from Pusher Man’s pocket dimension, Nico kisses Chase, who rejects her because of Gert. They find the others and Nico, still not trusting adults, takes down Spider-Man. The kids realize the villain works at the same hospital where the comatose Dagger is held. Cloak is sleeping at the church, where Father Lantom tries to convince the 11-year old Molly that she needs a foster home. They are then interrupted by three Avengers.

The kids hurry to the hospital to save Dagger. Cloak and Molly also leave for the hospital after easily escaping from the Avengers. At the hospital Reginald has already defeated Luke Cage and Spider-Woman before he is confronted by the runaway gang. Chase uses Nico’s Staff of One to remove the mutant growth hormone from Reginald’s body just before Dagger wakes up. Cloak arrives and takes the kids back to Los Angeles. He also thinks that it might be the time for find a new city for himself and Dagger. Chase promises Nico not to tell Gert about the kiss if she doesn’t tell Gert about what he had told in Pusher Man’s place. Meanwhile, the kids are spied upon by the successors of the Pride, who’ve learned from the Abstract that one of the runaways is going to die soon.

First Appearance: Excavator, Excelsior (Turbo II, Phil Urich, Darkhawk, Lightspeed, Ricochet III, Chamber II), Victor Mancha
Death: Gertrude Yorkes (alternate future version)
The runaways have started to take on new threats trying to fill the Pride’s gap, with Nico leading the group. The kids have also found their parents’ old lair beneath the La Brea Tar Pits Museum and made it their new Hostel. Elsewhere in Los Angeles, Excelsior, an outreach program for former teenage super heroes, is assembling for the first time with Turbo, Phil Urich (formerly a Green Goblin), Chamber, Darkhawk, Lighspeed and Ricochet. They are called by a mystery benefactor who offers their outreach program one million dollars in exchange for finding the runaways.
After the kids defeat the Wrecking Crew, the injured future counterpart of Gertrude arrives to the present to warn them of the boy named Victor Mancha, who would grow up to become Victorious and murder every hero in the future. Apparently, Victor’s father is a super-villain and will become the greatest evil in the universe. The adult Gert then dies in Chase’s arms.

Apparently, fifteen years ago, Xavin’s father, the royal leader of Tarnax VII, had led an invasion against Earth but had been stopped by Frank and Leslie Dean, two extraterrestials living on Earth. In exchange for sparing Earth, the Deans had revealed the coordinates of their birth world, Majesdane, which Xavin’s father had long sought to invade. As assurance that the coordinates were real, the Deans had offered their only daughter, Karolina, to be wed with Xavin. Xavin’s warlord parents were both killed in the following war between Tarnax VII and Majesdane. Xavin hoped to end the war by marrying the Majesdane-born Karolina.
The Runaways fight Xavin, but in the end, Karolina agrees to leave with Xavin in order to make up for her parents deeds. However, Karolina doesn’t agree to marry Xavin.

Spider-Man convinces Gertrude and Victor to talk with him in a sushi place that he had saved from Hydro-Man a few months earlier. Meanwhile, Chase convinces Pusher Man that he and Nico were sent by their parents, who he claims to be still alive. Pusher Man gives them the name of Cloak’s impostor and Chase tells him that he had killed a man who tried to steal his car when he was sixteen. When they get back to Earth from Pusher Man’s pocket dimension, Nico kisses Chase, who rejects her because of Gert. They find the others and Nico, still not trusting adults, takes down Spider-Man. The kids realize the villain works at the same hospital where the comatose Dagger is held. Cloak is sleeping at the church, where Father Lantom tries to convince the 11-year old Molly that she needs a foster home. They are then interrupted by three Avengers.

The kids hurry to the hospital to save Dagger. Cloak and Molly also leave for the hospital after easily escaping from the Avengers. At the hospital Reginald has already defeated Luke Cage and Spider-Woman before he is confronted by the runaway gang. Chase uses Nico’s Staff of One to remove the mutant growth hormone from Reginald’s body just before Dagger wakes up. Cloak arrives and takes the kids back to Los Angeles. He also thinks that it might be the time for find a new city for himself and Dagger. Chase promises Nico not to tell Gert about the kiss if she doesn’t tell Gert about what he had told in Pusher Man’s place. Meanwhile, the kids are spied upon by the successors of the Pride, who’ve learned from the Abstract that one of the runaways is going to die soon.
