    Love Jeff Parker.

    I really REALLY hope Cain doesn't go anywhere after FI. He is my favorite Thunderbolt.

    CBR News: You've got a lot going on in "Thunderbolts" right now, but "Fear Itself" seems to have really shaken things up with Juggernaut getting his very own hammer. How much did that throw a metaphorical hammer into your plans for the book?

    Jeff Parker: Luckily I knew about that for a while, but it was a surprise to me at first, the way he was going to be one of the Worthy hammer-wielders. I looked at it and I thought, "Well, okay, we're going to destroy the prison and boy this changes a lot of stuff." I didn't want to make it so it just snapped back right away. Let's have it actually change things up so we can morph our status quo yet again, 'cause the nice thing about "Thunderbolts" is that fans are pretty tolerant of you keeping them guessing with it. They kind of expect that because that's what the first issue years ago sort of taught them; everything's going to change, it's not what you expect. Based on some other things I wanted to do, I started following the natural progression of the way that could go down, so it's created a neat year coming up that's all going to grow out of that.
    I guess I'm kind of naive, because I thought in a situation like this the idea of using a character in a big event would be discussed with the author before he was outright pilfered. I hope it all works out in the end.

    Jeff Parker is such a character, he makes reading comics feel like it did when I was a kid.

    All they seem to do is throw lemons at the guy, but he seems to relish in the challenge and makes some of the weirdest premises just work really well.

    Please don't draw Beast out with this unverified speculation.

    "What's coming down the line in the future for you?"

    "There are some neat developments in "Hulk" coming up." "I think everybody's got something they'll enjoy coming up in the Hulk."

    Geez, I think you're seeing stuff that isn't there. I don't read it that way at all.

    he said there would be something EVERYONE would enjoy... that either means Hulk or bacon. And I believe Parker has been quoted as saying he is saving bacon for year three of his run.
