[QUOTE=Dreaded Porcupine;5722200]I second this. I nominate Roger Gocking the Porcupine to be on the team since he got kicked to the curb by Pacheco.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Digifiend;5722883]Isn't he already reformed though?[/QUOTE]
He could still have outstanding warrants.

Looks like the initial lineup is:
Taskmaster
Crossbones
Thypoid Mary
Shocker
Rhino
Whiplash
Kraven[/QUOTE]
out of all of those, Rhino is the only one who could be redeemed. He tried before, and failed, but one day he could go the way of Songbird and Mach X.
Oh, wait, these aren’t meant to be redeemable Thunderbolts…

Shocker briefly tried/was forced to try as the one of the B-Team Thunderbolts in Jeff Parker's run.
You are right that none of these are meant to be redeemable though, that's not what Fisk is trying to do.

Weird to see Tasky again without his best buddy Black Ant. They usually do everything together.

Oh yeah, the original Thunderbolts appeared in a few pages of FF this week. Too bad JRJR’s art is…. Ugh. The fake covers were cool, though.

Crossbones was also part of Jeff Parker’s run as well, Wilson Fisk’s Thunderbolts are indeed irredeemable.

Yes, but Shocker and Crossbones are VERY different people. Herman has shown the occasional glimmer of potential to reform over the years--in fact, Rogue once stood up as a character witness for him in court to argue in favour of giving Shocker as a chance at redemption rather than just sentencing him to jail again.
Not that I think we're likely to see Shocker or any of the others move in a direction towards redemption while working for Fisk--that's obviously not going to happen. I'm just saying that under different circumstances some of these characters could potentially have a shot and redemption--and Shocker has made baby steps in that direction before.

Looks like 2022 will be kicking off with a little T-Bolts with Devil's Reign, in a Villains For Hire one shot revolving around Kingpin Bolts. I was really hoping there might be a insurgence during the event within the Bolts to turn them into a more traditional redemption group, but doesn't seem like that's the case.
Electro(Frye), Rhino, Taskmaster, and Agony(Purple Symbiote) are all featured on the cover.

Should be interesting. We'll have to see how the story develops, though.
