I Might Stick with Runaways a Bit Longer.

Might. Might?

Joss Whedon??? - Thank you very much Marvel.

Should be a new number 1 really, but as long as it doesn't take six months between issues as happened with Fray and Astonishing X-Men I will be a happy man, we all know Whedon can work to a tight schedule after his work on Roseanne, Buffy and Angel, so let's hope this monthly series remains a monthly series.

I'd better reorder the digests so all the Serenity crowd can get up to date.

I dunno, they have been comparing Runaways to X-Men lately, the whole "franchise that got canned then bought back, then went huge" comparison.
Only problem is Runaways is finite, as soon as these characters come of age, how are they Runaways? Lets hope Marvel use some creative license in keeping these characters this age for quite some time, but that's always a drawback of a shared universe.

Don't worry about that. A lot of people have got caught up in the "what happens when X takes over the book" debate over the last few years. Even if Brubakers run on DD had been shit, it wouldn't have taken away the greatness inherant in Bendis' run.
Sometimes you have to live in the here and now.
Plus you never know, Vaughan might want to go back by then.
