I've got to respect Andy Diggle. Far from resting on his laurels with this relaunch of Thunderbolts, Diggle is already knocking down the status quo he's built. Songbird is on the loose, and this issue she snuck her way into a military bunker to enlist her old allies Techno and Mach IV into her battle with the Thunderbolts. I loved seeing these classic heroes getting together, and Diggle gave fans of the old Tbolts plenty to cheer about. Techno was sort of a jerk, Mach IV was heroic and thrilled to see his old gal, and Songbird was decisive and brave (plus she reunited with her old bf Mach IV). Now she's off to find Radioactive Man. I can't wait to see the old crew face off against the current villainous team!
The new team is still having its share of problems getting along. As expected from a crew of villains, no one on the team trusts anyone else. Mister X is openly threatening and belittling his teammates and I'm confident that Headsman is going to take a shot at him in the field. The biggest problem for Osborn's little black-ops team is the fact that their leader is the wrong Black Widow!
Miguel Sepulveda is doing a great job on this title. His Songbird looked fantastic, the shot where she swoops in on Techno and Mach IV was just beautiful stuff. I hope he sticks around.
Good

Yupola, great ish, but I was amazed Techno and Mach-Whatever valued their registration status over Songbird's concerns. Hey-ho, I'm sure they'll come through when needed.
