So will this get dragged out to the Hydra event or will it get cancelled before?
>>88757036
>>88757078
>>88757048
Hydra event is starting soon, there's even a "Classified: Prelude" on the March solicits
>>88757048
Hydra event starts this summer, so they'll probably keep it around and just relaunch it after its Hydra War tie-in.
>>88757150
>>88757189
>>88757185
Hopefully they'll relaunch it with a better creative team. Wasn't this supposed to get a Monsters Unleashed tie-in?

This was actually a better, less Bucky-centric issue but I still feel Zub is pretty off on how he writes the 'Bolts. It's like he gets how the character should be, but can't execute it well.
>>88757267
>>88757229
Hoping for Spencer since Cap Falcon book is giving all the red flags of a final arc
>>88757295
>>88757280
The Bolts are starting to become recognizable as themselves and their interactions are actually pretty decent, but Zub has completely failed to build a meaningful relationship between them and Bucky + Kobik and this entire thing still feels like a rudderless Bucky circlejerk.
>>88757347
>this entire thing still feels like a rudderless Bucky circlejerk
thats mostly what it is and was designed to be.
>>88757295
At least Spencer has shown that he can write a good Fixer and MACH.

>>88756851
there is something in this art that reminds me of Liefeld.
>>88757363
I know and it has soured me on Bucky.
>>88757366
>>88757383
Something? Try fucking everything, down to the lack of feet.
>>88757383
The artist was mentored by Liefeld, actually.

LOL, had to read the cover twice to make sure it wasn't liefeld

Even then I feel all that was really good in this issue was Atlas and Songbird's interactions. He's a bit blunt with the others.

Anyone wanna take bets on which team members Zub is planning to off? My bet is on Abe.
>>88757670
Every member that isn't Bucky
>>88757483
There's a reason Malin is called Liefeld Jr.
>>88757670
Relatively safe kills would be Abner or Erik. The "fuck you" option would be Moonstone, because that just seals this run as shitting on her - but it might happen if she comes around to realising she's been mindwiped. More complex in plotting but not really controversial would be Fixer - and that's possible in a Zemo conflict because Zemo and Fixer do sometimes butt heads. Songbird would be second most controversial. Most controversial would be Bucky, but it'd also kill the book so lol, not happening.
>>88758467
They wouldn't kill Songbird. They can't possibly be stupid enough to kill Songbird. She's the face of the Thunderbolts.
>>88757670
I'm not worried. I mean, I bet it will involve their deaths and Kobik bringing them back.
>>88758818
Kobik is almost certainly gonna be involved in their resurrection but it would also prove that they are nothing but props for Bucky's character development.
