But to be fair..

When I critisized Terry Moore's contribution to "Runaways", I should have mentioned that I very much enjoyed "Strangers in Paradise", an epic love story he wrote and drew from 1993 to 2007, in which he developed interesting characters, managed to pull off the unlikely action storyline in the midst of portraying everyday life, and kept me interested in the fates of his characters, while in the case of "Runaways", I stuck with the characters because I remembered how they had been under Vaughan and Whedon (especially Molly and Chase, who lost all his depth, and the darker side he gained after Gertrude's death, that has now, only two issues into Immonen's run, returned to him).
