The New Thunderbolts!!!!
Brilliant!
Joe Quesada, Marvel Editor in Chief, hinted that Thunderbolts was going through some drastic changes after Civil War was all said and done. Today he announced those changes.
Alongside Ellis, Mike Deodato will be taking on the artist chores. As for the lineup...well, more after this brief history lessons.
The Thunderbolts came out of the huge Onslaght Saga, about 10 years ago. With all of Earth's main heroes (Avengers, Fantastic Four) believes dead (they were in the horrible Heroes Return Universe) a new super team came to the forefront. They were the Thunderbolts, here to fill the void the heroes left.
In a shocking twist, this new team was actually the MASTERS OF EVIL, lead by Captain Americas rival Baron Zemo. They masquaraded as super heroes in order to take ove rthe worl easier...or soemthing.
Fast forward ten years, and a new group of thunderbolts is about to take over. Comming out of Civil War, and implanted with behavioural chips, the new line-up consists of Bullseye, Venom and Norman Osborn aka THE GREEN GOBLIN.
Not much has been released as in what type of book it will be. Considering the ending to Civil War #4, one can assume they will be hunting heroes for the government, and undoubtly thinking of subtle ways to take over the world.
More news as it comes to hand.
