Finally Getting to the Point
I am a huge fan of the Thunderbolts, especially the newest team. This issue seems to be the breaking point of what has been building for many months. I saw this issue as the psychological breakdown of most of the Thunderbolts by the imprisoned psychics in the cells below. Each one is going back to their worst nightmare, with Norman returning to the Green Goblin, Gargan returning to his Venom brutality, and Swordsman following in his father's footsteps. This explosion of mistrust and betrayal really made the story fun to read. One thing that did disappoint me though was that the cover didn't reflect what was inside. I was looking forward to a Doc Samson-Penance smackdown, but instead we see about two pages of story from them. Maybe it's forshadowing what's to come, but anyway, it'll be exciting to read.
