Runaways 17
The kids spend most of the issue debating whether or not to follow Alex’s plan to prevent world destruction. They finally agree, then reverse their decision again after Gib comes to the realization that maybe humans aren’t worth wiping out after all.

I’m still waiting for Alex to take a long walk off a short pier. Also, this had better not be the end of Doombot.
