This would eventually become the cover story of Karolina's parents. However, in the original pitch for the series, Molly's parents were Hollywood actors. Vaughan's original proposal she is named after Vaughan's younger sister, Molly Hayes Vaughan. Molly was one of the few Runaways to actually keep the name she had in Brian K. Her parents were originally real estate agents, as opposed to famous actors. This name would eventually be given to the character's mother.

The imprint was unsuccessful, and 'Pride & Joy' (and the series Runaways that continued it) was one of the very few series from that imprint to continue being published and to do well in sales. 'Pride & Joy' was launched in 2003 as a part of Marvel's Tsunami imprint, the goal of which was to attract new readers, particularly young readers and the manga audience. Vaughan's tenure on the series ran from April 2003 to 2007. Runaways has subsequently won several comics awards, including the 2006 Harvey Award for Best Continuing or Limited Series. While it was initially intended to be a six-part miniseries, the popularity of 'Pride & Joy' and new ideas from writer Vaughan allowed it to grow into a regular monthly Marvel title, Runaways. Runaways is frequently praised for being a simple story while being set in the typically complex and twisting Marvel Universe. Rainbow Rowell currently runs the series. Series creator Vaughan wrote the entire first volume and most of the second, which was continued and ended by Joss Whedon. Runaways has frequently been collected in digest-sized books, which led to booming sales. It has covered 13 story arcs, and is currently in its fourteenth.
