She is the George RR Martin of Web Comics.

This is a group of teens set in the Marvel Universe where they find out their parents are super villains and they as the title implies, runaway from home to figure things out.
They have a witch, a mutant, a girl with a genetically bred velociraptor that is psychically linked to her whose parents are time travelers, a jock kid with super scientist parents, an alien girl and their leader who is a genius with no powers but is the leader/strategist.
The series lasted for about 11 volumes and they crossed over into Young Avengers and the Skrull Invasion crossover arc they had a while back.
I loved that comic. And they didn't even end it with any conclusion either before going into hiatus. Just paused it all and then cancelled.
That actually sounds really interesting. Especially that raptor part. I wouldn't mind reading that if they ever continued it.
To be fair the initial story arc that they started with does have a conclusion. But then after that they tend to make the stories more reactive to their circumstances, and they have them in one weird situation after another with the final volume ending on a cliffhanger. The other crossover ones I haven't read so I don't know if they touch on the last volume's story or if that took place in the middle somewhere.
But yes, if you ever get a chance read the series. What they do have is really good and is in a way worth knowing they aren't going to finish it up or continue. I did hear rumblings off and on about a possible movie, but that is still in the planning/pre-production phase so nothing concrete.
I hope it does get made so that if it is successful it might spark interest to get the series continued. I mean even Joss Whedon had a stint at writing it.
