    Default Thunderbolts Appreciation 2021


    The next thread for the modern Marvel classic. For the original Busiek run, the New Thunderbolts, Warren Ellis's Osborn-led squad in the era after Civil War, the Luke Cage era, the all-too-brief Bucky era, and all the others in between.

    Some speculate them to show up in the upcoming Falcon & Winter Soldier show!

    Hoping 2021 will be a good year for the T-Bolts! The return of Citizen V/Baron Zemo would be great, as well...

    If it helps, they're getting another relaunch for the King in Black event, with the Kingpin, a.k.a. "Mayor Fisk," assembling them this time. After all, the end of all life in the universe by Knull's hand benefits no one.

    God, I miss moonstone so much! But I wish they'd sort her out once and for all. Is she a hero? A villain? Or an anti hero? I don't think even Karla knows what she is!

    this is a concept that I really wish was turned into an animated series. I think it would work well. Yes, adult fans know the secret already, of the original group, but I still think it would be worth exploring in animation.

    No different from, say, Magneto, though

    That's the fun with her though--she's hard to pin down. As with basically all of the T-Bolts, she's tried to be a better person...but some of them have been more successful than others. All of the T-Bolts have had some degree of backslide along the way. For some of them the road to redemption is just too hard and they fall into old habits and take the easier option. Others have circumstances change which push them back into their old ways.

    In Karla's case, I think its a bit of both. She has definitely found it hard to change and struggled with being a better person--but she's also been rather changed since the incident where her mind was left comatose for months after Hawkeye shattered one of her moonstones when she was going mad from the power of having the two stones. Since she came out of that coma, she's been a bit aggressive and bloodthirsty than she used to be, and she hasn't been as subtle and manipulative as she used to be. I think she may have been left with some brain damage that has altered her personality somewhat.
