Bucky Barnes leads a revolution in Marvel’s new Thunderbolt series
“Get ready for a revolution!” declares the official synopsis for Thunderbolts #1. Bucky Barnes, also known as the New Revolution, has just inherited a treasure trove of covert intel, and he’s on a mission for justice. Like a bolt of lightning, he’s targeting the establishment, taking down the untouchables that no one else dares to challenge. And he won’t stop until he emerges victorious. Teaming up with the enigmatic Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, Bucky assembles a team of elite operatives to pursue high-profile targets like the Red Skull, Kingpin, and even Doctor Doom himself. No one is safe from the Thunderbolts!
“Together with our esteemed collaborator Geraldo Borges, we’re thrilled to present a whole new kind of team book,” share writers Kelly and Lanzing about the relaunch of this iconic title. “This marks the dawn of a new era for the Thunderbolts, featuring a gripping four-part espionage saga, a constantly evolving cast, and a singular mission: to dismantle a century of Nazi evil with justice as swift as lightning.”
Mark your calendars for the release of Thunderbolts #1 on Wednesday, December 6, courtesy of Marvel Comics. The issue will also feature a captivating main cover by Terry Dodson.
