Thunderbolts #2

Thunderbolts #2 is a delight. The funniest parts of the first issue, from Hawkeyes ineptitude to the rules and regulations chats around superheroes are even funnier when seen in practice. Zub is an excellent storyteller and controlling many story threads at the same time takes immense talent, especially one where the pace can be so intense. Read Full Review

Izaakse delivers light, detailed and visually engaging art that perfectly matches the tone of the story.  Read Full Review

Thunderbolts #2 adds a new teammate, more mystery, and oodles of potential for a superhero book tinged with solid humor and hard-hitting action (literally). Zub's pacing and dialog are excellent, and the art is great. Barring Hawkeye's depiction as an insecure buffoon, this title continues to show great potential. Read Full Review

Very solid, enjoyable second issue keeps the strong character character work going for an overall entertaining superhero team comic. Read Full Review

Sadly a lot of what made the first issue's take on the Thunderbolts interesting, it's lampooning of entertainment conglomerates and techno-babble nonsense, is absent from Thunderbolts #2. Read Full Review

This issue is so incredibly weird that I had no other option than to love it. The comedy is on point. I like the light hearted tone and the dymamics between the characters. It felt at some point like a classic Defenders issue. Still don't know what to think of this but i'm digging it so far.

Continues to be funny, solidly paced, great art. Maybe the best "classic marvel" team style book they are publishing right now.

This issue makes me think we're in for a relationship-heavy plot-light team dynamics book. (A funny one, too.) And it's done well enough to make me embrace it; I think this is a pretty good read. Nothing world-shattering, but thoroughly satisfying. Plus it seems like the author wants to do a lot of early Silver Age nods, and that's like catnip to me. (I totally recognized that ape is what I'm saying.)
