Tommaso Bianchi does a fantastic job throughout the comics making you feel you're right in the action alongside Songbird and Bucky. Bianchi nails the menacing tone Doom bleeds into every panel he's in. What I appreciate the most was how well the facial expressions drawn. You could pick up the mood each character was putting out there so very easily with just one look. Read Full Review
Thunderbolts: Doomstrike #1 isn't just your regular event tie-in; it's also a reminder of how the Thunderbolts have changed over the years. Lanzing, Kelly, Bianchi and Nitro threw the gauntlet down in their opening issue, and I hope that the rest of Doomstrike matches this energy. Read Full Review
Thunderbolts: Doomstrike #1 is a solid companion series to One World Under Doom. It shows that there'll be some key moments in the story within this series and kicks things off with a hell of a bang, a few actually. It's an interesting series that'll play a pivotal role, so if you're into this event, this is one tie-in miniseries you won't want to miss. Read Full Review
Thunderbolts: Doomstrike #1 is an intense opening issue that plays out like a big budget action flick, with a surprising dash of emotion, but could use with a bit more in-between moments. Read Full Review
Artist Tommaso Bianchis art here is fantastic; appropriately moody and even gritty to a point that recalls Michael Gaydos in spots, but still colorful. Each page is formatted in visually interesting ways that reflect the action as well, which helps the thing from feeling too static, which you dont want with a story like this. All in all, Thunderbolts: Doomstrike #1 is a good start for what will likely be a fun, engaging complimentary read to its parent series. Read Full Review
