Marvel's RUNAWAYS headed to the big screen!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm a big Marvel fan, but I only really looked into Bryan K. Vaughan's RUNAWAYS series during the Civil War crossovers. I'm not a big fan of the super stylized cartoony art (something that almost got me to stop reading Amazing Spider-Man a year or so back), so I didn't stick with it. I am a big fan of Vaughan's Y: THE LAST MAN books, so I'm sure if I buckled down and started from issue one I'd get into it, but I have yet to do that.

It's about the super powered teenage children of super villains who run away from home and band together as a group of goodies.

Marvel has announced that they're going forward with RUNAWAYS, putting it on the slate with flicks like CAPTAIN AMERICA, IRON MAN 2 and ANT MAN to hit sometime between now and 2011. Thoughts?
