Description
For those of you who are unfamiliar with either or both Runaways and Firefly, this is Molly Hayes. Molly is eleven years old, a super-strong mutant capable of sending Wolverine flying several city blocks. She's also rather well known for her adorable hats . The one she's wearing in this sketch, however, does not belong to her. It's Jayne's .So either Nico is secretly a Firefly fangirl and thought it'd be cute to make Molly said hat, or there was some sort of freak spellcasting/time travelling accident in which Molly lands in the Firefly timespan, beats Jayne up, and steals his hat.
Personally I'm fond of the latter option, because Jayne getting his ass handed to him by 90-pound girls never fails to be comedic gold.
For a quick sketch and a swift and sloppy coloring job, I'm quite fond of this! Someone on a board I frequent brought up the mental image, and it was too damn funny to let go. ^__^

I almost did a whole series of crossover images (though Chase was cast as Wash, because SOMEONE has to drive that dump and Victor is too much of a Simon!) when Whedon picked up the title, but kind of...lost momentum on it. Either way, I love the haaaaat!

I can't take credit for the idea, but I'm glad the art turned out well ^_^ Thank you for the watch and the fave, and I hope tomorrow improves for you.

Thanks for the approval! I wish the book would go back to a monthly release...all this waiting is driving me nuts.

There;s another option, namely the Jayne and Molly got along so well he gave her his hat as a souvenir.

Hmm, Jayne doesn't strike me as the sort to be terribly good with hyper children, though...

You never can tell and it's a nice thought.

I'm holding out for it, Joss Whedon!
Thanks for faving my other two sketches, too! Is that Shoebox icon I spy?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
:Giggle: Maybe in his arch as the new writer of the 'Runaways'...*crosses fingers*
It could be...(I once knew some one who was crazied about The Shoebox project and she gave me this icon. It was my introduction into Remus/Sirius and their potential love life, so I've kept it ever since. she died last October)

I'm so sorry to hear that. I must say that she had excellent taste in fiction, though.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That she did. She wanted to be a writer herself one day and had notebooks full of original stories and fan fiction.
I don't think I could ever replace my icon, because of her.
It was cancer. I was devestated.

It startled me to realize recently that cancer has been responsible for everyone, from pets to grandparents, I've ever lost. Medical science needs to stop cloning beefcows and get on the cure for cancer (unless cloning beefcows somehow facilitates this.).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know what you mean. I've lost many people I know as well to cancer. AIDS too. People I loved and cared about. Pets too, which came as a shock (I didn't think pets could get cancer. I thought it was just a human disease, which proves how dumb I am).
If science doesn't come up with something soon, You and I should get on it. To hell with cloning! Solve more important problems first!

ZOMG it's Princess Powerful! Totally my most favourite mutant.
Love the pic... Firefly's great too.

Thank you! And thanks for the fave, too!

Now that Joss Whedon's going to be helming the writing...maybe he'll be a darling and sneak that in. Molly's got a whole legion of awesome hats, wearing Jayne's for an issue or two seems to make perfect sense.

I hadn't even considered the possibility! I drew this way back before they announced the change in creative teams, but the notion hadn't occurred to me since! He absolutely should.

That is so incredibly nifty. Great combination of two fantastic works.

You can never have enough of Molly and her hats. 
This is such a fun piece! The colors are inviting and the pose suits the character very well.

Thank you! I had a lot of fun with it myself! This is made even better by Joss' taking over the title for BKV!

I believe he's picking up after Issue 25. Adrian Alphona is also leaving, and the guy who'd been doing New Excalibur is stepping in. His name escapes me at the moment...Michael something, I think. Micheal Ryan, maybe?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah.. seems like Alphona left after issue 18.
.. Sorry it took us so long to get back you but we appreciate the info!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's actually just another three or four issue guest-stint. He'll be back for BKV's final arc, at least!

Ah, we see, well that's good to hear then.

I too am a firefly/runways fan- and I'm diggin this. Very funky!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*laughs!* Nobody's ever called a doodle of mine funky before! I like it! I'm glad the disturbing fandom meld appeals to you ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really? Not even funkadelic, funkalicious...funktastic?! I reckon if you don't have something funky to say, don't say anything at all. And since you mention it, it is a pretty strange fandom combo...but maybe thats why it works so well ;D

Really nice Molly fanart, I love her expression. I think you captured her character well, and the bright simple background is a nice touch.
And let's face it, Molly beating anyone up is pretty funny.

Molly beating up gun-toting violence junkies is even better! Thank you for the thoughtful feedback ^_^

I love that comic

Poor, poor Xavin 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah super-skrulls always get the worst luck
well that least she might join the group (then they can fight the Skrull Kill Krew and maybe the F4)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
is the Kill Krew still around? The way time passes in comic universes I'm not sure if their disease has killed 'em yet.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i really don't know they're probly been disbanded after most of the Skrulls form the 70's invason were killed plus skrull meat cuases your brain to melt but they could reform due to the Annihilation Wave cuaseing refugees to hide on Earth till the wave is destory probly a group of teens that found out Sheild was setting up a camp for them in return of weapons to help Sheild hunt down roughe Heros.
i useily used 1976 was the start of the marvel age

Whoo, Runaways + Firefly = Awesomeness! Today is free comic book day too, so I just spent the past 2 hours at my comic book store downtown.
