After a brief gap, the Runaways are back for volume four. Because of the events in three (you know, stopping their villain parents from taking over/destroying the world), there’s a massive power vacuum in Los Angeles, and the Runaways are determined to make a difference!
After all this build-up, the Runaways finally face off against the Pride in an attempt to stop their parents from completing their goals. This is the volume you don’t want to skip to or skip over, so make sure that you make time for it. Along with everything else is an origin story for the Pride – but don’t worry, the background to them doesn’t make them anymore sympathetic, so feel free to continue hating them.
My Hero Academia: Smash is a series intent on retelling the original series that we love so much (My Hero Academia, in case that wasn't painfully obvious), but with a more…humorous twist. If you haven't read the original series, a lot of what happens here probably won't make a lot of sense.
Man, are we already twenty-five volumes into My Hero Academia? That's almost hard to believe. Then again, there's been a lot going on, so maybe it isn't all that surprising. Either way, it's been a thrilling series, and I hope that the end is nowhere in sight.
Teenage Wasteland continues the Runaways saga, and Brian Vaughan does not disappoint. I wouldn’t skip to volume two, as volume one has all of the vital backstory for what these kids are up to and why (though I’ll admit that a decent amount of time is spent summarizing volume one).

Can you believe it!?! The Runaways have finally (finally!) been rebooted. While many of our precious Runaway characters have appeared in other series since, this is the first time since the end of the series that we’ve seen them all in one place again, and I am so excited!

American Vampire Vol. 4 is pretty drastically different from the previous three volumes, but I don’t hate that. Once again, this series is full of surprises! This is the last volume I read during my binge session, so I’ll have to line up the next few soon.
The West Coast Avengers is a newly formed team, using an older name from the world of Marvel. The team itself is…unexpected, but actually ends up being a lot of fun. The team consists of Kate Bishop (AKA Hawkeye, also the team leader), Clint Barton (AKA Hawkeye), Gwenpool, America Chavez, Quentin Quire (AKA Kid Omega), and Johnny Watts (AKA Fuse).
