    Ehhhh......

    I dunno, something about this issue felt......off, to me. I love the B-Team Thunderbolts idea, and the recruits thereof, but I don't know, this issue fell flat for me up until the end. They followed up on the "occult" storyline of the A-team, and it was really unsatisfying, to be honest with you. The formation of the B-team and their first mission, along with the T-Bolts writing team clearing Juggernaut up for being involved in Fear Itself was okay, but I'm not sure, I was just underwhelmed with all of it. Maybe with a little time and development, they'll win me back, but hopefully, this  isn't the start of a downward trend in the T-Bolts. Also, the "Incarsicus" that was touted on the cover is an interesting concept, but I wasn't a huge fan of it. Overall, unless you're a diehard T-Bolts fan like me, I'd say give this one a miss. It's good, but it's not great. The art was up to the usual standard, though, so if you're big into that, it works.

      The Alpha squadron completes their latest mission just as Bravo team's called in for their first.  The Good This is quite possibly my favorite cover to have graced this series.  Like last issue, the stories split between the regular bolts and the second squad. Last week I found this to be a bit distracting, but this week the transition happens a lot more smoothly. So much so that I can say that I genuinely enjoyed it.  I liked the idea of Satana joining the T-Bolts, but she really was a bit too ...
