Any Runaways fans out there know where to place their story in Breaking Into Comics the Marvel Way? It's set "once upon a time."

The kids are at the Malibu House which was destroyed in series 3 #13 - 14. Xavin has gone, presumably into space which happened in series 3 #6 and Klara is around. She appeared at the end of series 2. Chase is there prior to being knocked down in series 3 #14. You can fit this between series 3 #6 and #7 without a problem.

Thanks, Fantomex. What you're saying is it has to be after RUN3 6 and before RUN3 13. You suggested between RUN3 6 and 7, but is there any reason it can't happen, say, between RUN3 9 and 10 or after RUN3 10/2?

Before the end of RUN3 11, actually. My full analysis is still pending, but the Malibu House gets overrun by giant plants then, and doesn't recover until its destruction later on. (It's a pretty continuous chain of events with barely a break.)

None (it could also happen between the two stories of RUN3 10, if needed).

I'd actually advise against putting it between RUN3 6 and 7, as those two arcs run pretty close together in timeline. Moreover, Chase was barely on talking terms with the others by the opening of RUN3 7... and was busy with his day job.

So the three logical places would be:
Between RUN3 9 and 10
Between RUN3 10 and 10/2
Between RUN3 10/2 and 11

We probably don't want to split the two stories in issue #10 if we don't have to, so we're left with the other two options. If the only other consideration is publication date, then between RUN3 10/2 and 11 would be the logical choice.

Thanks, JD.
