Among the many Marvel TV shows taking the world by storm, one more fantastic comic is being added to the ranks. Marvel's Runaways are coming to Hulu! Find out more below!
Every teenager thinks their parents are evil. What if you found out they actually were? "Marvel's Runaways" is the story of six diverse teenagers who can barely stand each other but who must unite against a common foe--their parents.
For those unfamiliar with the popular comic Runaways, this is the overall synopsis of the series and boy was it a good series. Each teen has their own unique set of abilities, but yet they're just starting to learn about them. Instead of your run-of-the-mill superhero origin story having a parental-figure there to help them through it, these guys just have each other and none of them know how to help.
So, when Marvel announced that Hulu would be the home for Marvel's Runaways,...

Mad Men, Season 7: Episode 5 – “The Runaways”
Written by David Iserson & Matthew Weiner
Directed by Christopher Manley
Airs Sunday nights at 10 on AMC
It’s hard to get a handle on what Matthew Weiner wants us to think about regarding Ginsberg’s storyline in this most recent episode of Mad Men. The way Peggy looks at the Ibm computer after Michael has been hauled off, presumably to a mental institution, is a combination of contempt and bemusement. I don’t believe we’re supposed to assume Peggy dislikes the technology for apparently making Ginsberg go crazy, but the shot lingers on her facial expression long enough to suggest that the transition into a more modern age is something that several of these characters embrace with a large dose of skepticism.
The Ginsberg storyline isn’t the only one in “The Runaways” that feels odd. The whole episode functions almost like a collection of vignettes,...

There was a lot going on in this week’s roller coaster of a Mad Men episode: from Stephanie's return and a threesome out in L.A. to "Scout's Honor" and Don’s kicker of a tobacco pitch. But the biggest talking point of "The Runaways" was of course its shocking, positively Game of Thrones-esque mutilation scene. As Vulture critic Matt Zoller Seitz aptly put it, the episode “has a mostly light, comic vibe, punctuated by moments of melancholy and (Bloody Nipple Hacked Off).” Exactly. Here is your recap of the recaps:“All along, Don is well aware of the dangers of cigarette smoking, but he orchestrates campaigns that promote their use and obfuscate their health risks. Cigarettes represent not just everything that’s corrosive about his chosen career path but his chronic tendency toward deception and secrecy. Which is why it’s not exactly a moment of triumph when he shows up,...

7.5 The Runaways
Michael Ginsberg isn’t the first Sc&P employee to be wheeled out of the office on a gurney and nor, one suspects, will he be the last. Between heart attacks, hangings and ride-on lawnmowers (not to mention out-of-office car accidents and accidental blindings) the Sterling Cooper workforce has suffered more than its fair share of wounds.
Ginsberg is the first, however, to be wheeled out in restraints after uttering what has to be the creepiest and most Lynchian line in Mad Men’s seven year history. Ben Feldman’s matter-of-fact delivery of “It’s my nipple. It’s the valve” was a moment of unexpected grotesquery, a dark conclusion to last week’s manic couch comedy and a reminder from Mad Men that civilised man is...

How the Threesome on 'Mad Men' Saved Don Draper's Career Don's never won by sleeping with just his wife. by kate hakala At the end of last night's episode of Mad Men, one thing is for sure: Don Draper is back. Don Draper was neutered — both professionally and sexually — for the first five episodes of Season 7. By the end of the episode titled "The Runaways," that anemic version of Don has fled, and been replaced with his daring, cavalier, all-chips-in younger self. Don has spent the first episodes of this season in a holding pattern, on his best "scripted" behavior at Sc&P. Trying to remain sober has proved a disarming experience for Don, who reports begrudgingly under a vengeful Peggy and a stern Lou Avery. When his "niece" Stephanie — the niece of the late Anna Draper, calls asking [...]...

A review of tonight's "Mad Men" coming up just as soon as my computer's making me a homo... "I know what he likes." -Megan What a strange episode of "Mad Men" was "The Runaways," full of long-lost characters like Stephanie, strange bedfellows (sometimes quite literally), desperation plays and the mental disintegration of poor Michael Ginsberg. By the time he presented his severed nipple to Peggy in a box — in an episode that also featured a threesome and Sally being injured in a sword fight of sorts — I began wondering if I hadn't somehow left tonight's "Game of Thrones" on for an extra hour. The show has done crazier episodes — Roger taking LSD, or Don turning into Richard Speck — but they ultimately felt more cohesive even with all their weirdness, where "The Runaways" at times felt like a collection of odd ideas all placed into the same episode in the hope that they would fit together.

At the start of Mad Men’s "The Runaways," Don Draper is being the model employee, doing as he’s told by Peggy and Lou Avery, contributing his ideas to both the Burger Chef and Handiwrap campaigns. Furthermore, his marriage to Megan seems like it could be improving again.
