Posted on September 12, 2009 by paladinking

by Andy Diggle (writer), Miguel Sepulveda (art), Frank Martin (colors), and Albert Deschesne (letters) The Story: Black Widow and Songbird make a run for it. What’s Good: Diggle writes an interesting script for this issue, one that’s self-referential in many ways.  Whenever a character says a line that sounds ridiculous, cliche, or out of character, [...]

By Andy Diggle (Writer), Roberto De La Torre (Artist), and Frank Martin & Giovanni Kosoki (Colorists) Some Thoughts Before The Review: While I had my qualms with the last issue of Thunderbolts, it did a nice job of establishing both the new creative team and the method by which they would “clean house” in order [...]

Posted on November 20, 2008 by pozzyfreak

By Andy Diggle (Writer), Robert De La Torre (Art), and Frank Martin (Colorist) Some Thoughts Before The Review: The Thunderbolts: Secret Invasion arc, while definitely (and surprisingly) entertaining, put the series in a perfect spot for a new creative team to take the ball and run with it.

Posted on August 31, 2008 by pozzyfreak

By Christos N. Gage (Writer), Fernando Blanco (Artist), and Frank Martin (Colorist) The best part about the Thunderbolts’ Secret Invasion tie-in is that it allows for the characters to be totally unleashed. Warren Ellis wrote a story of contained chaos: what would happen if so many volatile personalities were kept in a (relatively) small space [...]
