No, not an announcement of a new ongoing, sorry! I was first introduced to them in BKV's Runaways and was really intrigued by the characters, and since then have been sort of collecting back issues as I find them at Half Price Books or my local comic shop. Any other fans? And are the trades out there any good or should I just keep looking for single issues?

I'm a fan of the duo, like you I first found out about them in the Runaways series. From what I've been able to find their mostly used as secondary characters with very few solo titles. Apparently they had a run in Strange Tales with Doctor Strange, there was an original graphic novel called Cloak and Dagger: Predator and Prey, and after Strange Tales the duo got their own book again called The Mutant Misadventures of Cloak and Dagger.After those series it appears the revert back to secondary characters that just pop up when needed.

I liked what I seen of them on Ultimate Spider-Man, I wish I could stayed with All-New Ultimates....but the first issue didn't got me hooked.

Thanks! I have found a couple of the old Strange Tales with them and their solo book afterward, and I just picked up the graphic novel super cheap on Amazon. I'm interested to hear from Czor that they're in Ultimates - I haven't read any of the Ultimates universe but am interested in Ultimate Spidey so I might look up their appearances there. Here's hoping some awesome writer picks them up for a storyline in the main universe again soon! |

You might know this already but there's also a Cloak and Dagger tie-in for the Spider-Island event that came out a few years ago which was pretty good in my opinion.
Its called Spider-Island: Cloak and Dagger.Its written by Nick Spencer and has beatiful art by Emma Rios, its three issues i think and you don't really need to know much about the event to understand it.

I actually was not aware of that, but I love Emma Rios's art! I found a seller on Amazon that had all three issues for cheap so those are on their way to me as well. Thanks so much for the rec! |

When it comes to Ultimate Universe they show up in the last arc of the first volume of Miles book (Ultimate Comics Spider-Man Vol 2 I believe it is). Also they are featured in the Ultimate Spider-Man Cataclysm mini (3 issues) and now they are part of All-New Ultimates.

Your welcome, i think you're going to like it. After i read those issues i really wanted a ongoing series with that creative team cause i think they would do a great job, but that's probably never going to happen. |

I'll definitely let you know what I think! I also had a chance to talk to the owner of my local comic shop yesterday and told him I'd casually started collecting Cloak and Dagger back issues, and he said he'd keep an eye out and pull whatever comes through for me. |
