Good. One of the things I noticed was how disconnected this show was from the rest of the MCU, even more so than the Netflix shows. If I didn't know better I'd assume it was a standalone CW drama.

One discrepancy I've read about is that in the comics, Tina is actually a Master of the Mystic Arts - the Staff of One is a magical relic similar to Strange's cloak. Maybe they'll retcon this into season 3, tho I'm not sure how since Tina is possessed by one of the Giborrim and from what we've seen, that usually means the hosts original personality is erased

It makes a lot of sense

They crossed over a few times in the comics too. One of the few superhero crossovers I’m Runaways treated with something like a modicum of respect

Probably because Cloak & Dagger were teenagers like them.

In fact, Cloak & Dagger were pretty much the original Marvel teenage runaway heroes.

In the comics? I think they're in "young adult" territory now but I haven't paid much attention to what's going on with them in recent times.

Tandy was attending college during Spider Island and she dated a cop in the recent Cloak & Dagger series.

I'm looking forward to this crossover. There was a crossover in the comics where Cloak transported all the Runaways to New York to help clear his name, it was a fun little side adventure. I wonder what Cloak and Dagger will be doing in Los Angeles though, teleportation gone wrong? Whatever it is I'm sure it will be fun.

It'll be interesting to see them interact with Nico and Carolina, what with the Light and Dark theme.

Marvel's really flipping a middle finger to their street-level heroes, aren't they? Even though they're like their biggest money makers. Not everyone has to be an Avenger, Feige. And coincidentally, my favorite Marvel heroes are the ones that would say "Fuck the Avengers".

Okey Dokey!

Shame, because it looks really good so far. But I guess there can be no marvel property beyond allmighty Disney Disney+. At least it looks like they might go out on top.

Um, what?

Even though they're like their biggest money makers.

You have seen the box office numbers for the Avengers and Guardians movies right?

Worth noting that the demise of Marvel TV has decimated the MCU’s representation of women, POC & LGBTQ characters. Still, at least white guys called Chris continue to get representation. With the exception of Black Panther, the movies have relegated their POC characters to ‘supportive side kick’. That’s before getting into how they fridged their most prominent female character and we’re still waiting for a gay character to be given the dignity of a name in the movies.

Okey Dokey!

Ahh...oof. I said it in the MCU thread, it's absolutely a shame that this yet another one of these series to be cut off, now all we can do is hope it ends on a high note.
