    Default Thunderbolts Appreciation

    I didn't even hear of this book before Ellis took over, now it's my favorite on the stands! So lets appreciate Marvel's most insane "team" of "heroes" Here's to Ellis never leaving! Hell, you can add your favorite moments, images, characters, etc. from Fabian or Busiek's run if you want. The latest issue, # 119 was kickass! Who knew Swordsman had it in him!

    Yeah, this series is great, the creativity of Ellis and Deodato fuse together very nicely! I just hope the rumors of Ellis's departure are wrong (or at least exaggerated as to how soon he would be leaving).

    And let's see the Thunderbolts take on the New Avengers!

    Yeah that would be awesome! They are meeting Spidey though, something I have wanted to see since I seen Norman and Venom was gonna be on the team

    Can't wait for the Goblin unleashed! Ellis has been building towards this his whole run! Never thought I would be so excited about seeing the Green Goblin again after the over-exposure in the Spider-Man books a few years ago, but I am. A testament to Ellis's writing I am sure

    119 issues of this book? Yeah right, it's only been 10, and I'm loving it that way. ;)

    Thats the way I feel about it.

    But I had to include the Fabian and Busiek run stuff cause some fans will crawl in and complain about the lack of Zemo or something, lol :)

    He will be writing Astonishing X-Men in April i think after Whedon's giant size issue comes out finishing off his and Cassaday's run.

    Let's hope he does a Bendis and stays on 2 titles? i.e. writes both

    And let's see the Thunderbolts take on the New Avengers!
    That would be great!

    I've just read Fabian's run, and I think Zemo was a great character in that. Certainly a better figurehead than Norman Osborn, who I just want to die horribly, along with Bullseye.

    Best moment in Ellis' run though, has to be American Eagle beating the tar out of Bullseye, and leaving him crippled and comatose. Ain't karma a bitch?

    This is the chance for Norman Osborn to be a villain like the Joker, who isnt just a major threat to Batman only, but also to the world at large.

    Oh yeah, and Thunderbolts rox!

    I loved the American Eagle being badass scenes. It was cool because thats what would really happen when a human with no super strength or anything takes on a superhuman. Total Pwnage

    According to the solict to Secret Invasion 3, it's Norman vs. Cap. Marvel. (who my money's on being a skrull) so you might get your wish on Norman being a threat to everyone

    I just got into this book and I'm really surprised what a great read it turned out to be.

    Since Dan Slott and John Romita Jr will have the Thunderbolts in Amazing Spider-Man, wonder if Brubaker will take a hint and to the same on Daredevil? He's expressed interest in having Bullseye and the rest after him, but thought it was better off as a Thunderbolts arc. I don't think it's gonna happen on the Thunderbolts book, so he'd probably be better off doing it himself, and it would be a good timing right now considering Matt's behavior on the streets during the Mr. Fear arc. The authorities just wouldn't keep ignoring him after something like that.

    I dropped the book after 100. I just didn't really like where it was going.

    But seeing/hearing how amazing it's been the last 10 issues, now I'm trying to catch back up. Which sucks, because a few of the issues are much more expensive now. My LCS has a "all back issues for $1" deal this entire month, so I got almost all of them. I still don't understand how things changed so radically from 102 to 110.

    Gaaaah! I wanna catch up!! Especially to read about Penance.
