That would at least be some consolation, but I'd rather have some
other network pick up VM at the FBI. Thomas made a 10-minute pilot
episode that the CW shot down.

The Runaways are a group of teenage superheroes who are also typical
teens. It's an outstanding series and it took me some time to collect
Vol. 1 and 2. But it was well worth it. Brian K. Vaughn was the
creator and principal writer, but he recently let Joss take the reins.
