This comes from reading danielsan52‘s thread about where some of the Thunderbolts are.
No re-inventing the wheel here. I’d just like a T-Bolts team that harkens back to the original team.
Mach-X, Songbird, and Atlas would be the team’s big three. Songbird would take the leadership position. I don’t think the others would have a problem w. that.
Genis Vell would be the team’s heavy hitter, and a way for the team to get involved in the occasional cosmic adventure.
Plus you’d have Songbird’s future husband (in at least a couple of alternate timelines) and her ex-lover on the same team.
I’d have Jolt come back. She became the heart of the T-Bolts really quick, and she’s gone through a LOT of crap for the team. She needs to get back on her feet.
Dallas Riordan would be there as Citizen V. She has a long history w. the team (especially Atlas), and I like the Citizen V identity way better than Vantage.
And, because I don’t have to worry about who has the rights to the character, I’d bring in Charcoal. He and Jolt had become real good friends before he had to be written out of the original series, and I’d like to see them as platonic best buds.
Germany’s answer to/version of, The Avengers…:
HAUPTMANN DEUTSCHLAND
Despite his soft spot for children and puppies, Germany’s national hero Markus Ettlinger is notoriously short tempered, and seems to have a problem w. (nearly) everyone on this new Govt. sanctioned team. He’s determined to whip them into shape, though!
BLITZKRIEG
Back from the dead, electric dynamo Franz Mittelstaedt is trying to fit back into the world of the living and reconnect w. his estranged family.
IRON CROSS
Clare Gruler’s the daughter of the original Nazi operative Iron Cross, who’s Inhuman power of molecular bonding activated only once, fusing her w. her father’s armor which she can now manifest at will.
MAXIMILIAN FRANKENSTEIN
Young Frankenstein has a genius level intellect (of which he’ll remind you at every opportunity), and an infamous family tree he’s not one bit ashamed of.
MAGIK
Dark magical powers aside, Amanda Sefton’s a vibrant young woman looking to enjoy her life, do good things, and maybe rekindle her romance w. Nightcrawler.
NIGHTCRAWLER
After so many years away, N.C. feels like a tourist in his own homeland. Luckily he has Amanda Sefton (who he may still have feelings for) to lean on. This new team will take some adjusting to, but he’s excited to see where things go.
MAN-KILLER
Back in Germany to settle her recently deceased mother’s Estate, powerhouse Katrina Van Horn is a offered a full Govt. pardon in exchange for her services on the team and accepts. She figures she can always resume her criminal activities back in America if she gets bored playing hero.

A throwback Initiative team for when Marvel was in the midst of their Skrull invasion, based out of Washington State…:
• With 28,000 miles of shorelines, team leader Namor has easy ocean access, and has a contingent of Atlantean troops stationed nearby ready to deploy at a moment’s notice.
• Quicksilver likes to boast that he can cover the whole of Washington all by himself.
• Gladiator’s on loan from the Shi’ar Empire, as no matter the current political climate between them and Earth, the Skrulls annexing such a pivotal planet is not something they want.
• Moondragon doesn’t really want to be back on Earth, but she knows the planet’s heroes would lose badly to the Skrulls without her.
• Quentin Quire is just counting the days until he takes charge of the team.
• Monet must have lost some kind of bet to be slumming in this backwoods State, but she’ll do what’s required of her.
Now, the team doesn’t have particular codename or anything, but behind their backs, The Avengers, FF, etc. refer to them as…THE POMPOSITY.
