Stupid, awful garbage. Daniel Way is a mediocre writer, and Steve Dillon is a mediocre artist, and together, they put out a book that's mediocre at best. The team's reasons for working together aren't particularly elaborated on. Way basically just felt like having this team doing stuff, so he threw them together, and it reads like bad fanfic, particularly with Punisher and Elektra randomly hooking up.Don't bother with any of Way's run on Thunderbolts.

Eh. Kinda ok?General Ross (aka Red Hulk) puts together a team of anti-heroes to...you know, do anti-hero stuff.Who's on the roster?Well, Ross, Elektra, Punisher, Deadpool, and Venom make up the main group, but there's still a few more {spoilery characters} hanging around in the background. Still, the core group makes a pretty decent line-up if you think about it. Um, I'm not sure what to say about No Quarter. It really wasn't bad, but I wasn't all that WOWed, either. It was a pretty standard bad...

General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross aka the Red Hulk decides to do something about the world’s dictators and forms a group designed to take them down: Venom, Deadpool, Elektra, the Punisher and himself. But as they set out on their inaugural mission to take down a military dictator in the fictional Asian island country of Kata Jaya, is there more to this scheme than simply bloody justice - and how does the Leader fit into it? Team books that are made up of people who didn’t start out together as...

Better than I thought it would be! I was kind of wary of a team book with Deadpool. He so doesn't strike me as someone who works well with others. But as it turns out, that was kind of the point. The majority of the characters in this team aren't exactly known for teamwork.But man, I felt lost often. This is almost entirely because of my relative lack of Hulk knowledge. Sure, I sort of vaguely knew that General Ross became the Red Hulk. But I had no idea that anything had happened to the Leader,...

Good, clean fun. Well, not so clean. Pretty dirty, really. But that's why it's fun. That being said, I was expecting...more from this title.

I don't know why I never made the connection that General "thunderbolt", aka the Red Hulk,should be the leader of the Thunderbolts team. How unfortunate, that this is probably the poorest version of the Thunderbolts to date.We have the initial team of Villains pretending to be heroes, led by Baron ZemoThen we have Norman Osborn's team of Villains controlled by the government, who would eventually become the Dark AvengersThen we have Luke Cage's team of Villains, which was basically Marvel's equi...

Scratch this turd off the list.

3/5 - 5,5/10It was fine. It didn’t blow me away, and it made me kind of sad how deadpool wasn’t as fun and lively as most of the time. I kind of got lost a little bit (i don’t know all of the characters), but as a story, I feel like it was kind of generic¿

don’t care abt the plot i’m just here for frank and elektra

2.5/5This is the first truly lackluster comic I've read this year.The chemistry didn't work between the bad guys as a new crew of vigilantes in a foreign country. I felt like I was watching jarring scenes of characters who happened to be in the same comic book together and didn't want to be. Part of that is what they were going for, maybe? No chemistry was fleshed out. I had to flip back to the previous page several times when I thought two pages were stuck together but they weren't -- the story...

Who writes Deadpool a speech that goes on for panels and not only makes no sense, but is unfunny to boot? Who writes a scene where Deadpool is battling a gang of French mimes and doesn’t include a bunch of good quips in a sequence that’s just begging for it? Answer to both: Daniel Way.This volume is somewhat better than volume two (two stars from me), but that’s like saying regular Spam tastes better than turkey Spam or that Chicago XII is better than Chicago XIV. Still, the story line is fairly...

Retired General Thaddeus Ross has put together a team to take on missions no one else will. Ross has assembled a team of people who either like or don't mind killing with The Punisher, Elektra, Deadpool, and Agent Venom. They're kind of like an anti-hero A-Team except they aren't helping those in need except themselves and when they shoot bullets they actually hit people...a lot of people. I have to say I'm somewhat disappointed with this volume. I expected all these anti-heroes together would b...

That was awful. Terrible story that has nothing interesting to say whatsoever. Deadpool is not Deadpool. Punisher is not PunisherRed Hulk. Who gives a shit about Red Hulk.The rest are just there to have some lines to say and also half the time out of character.I was so excited to start the series... and volume 1 was just as boring as it could get with no reason or development whatsoever. No outcome either.I always liked Dillon's art, and I like most of the characters so that's why I'm going to c...

I really did not know what to expect. I was away from Marvel for years and it sure felt like I had when I read this collection. Not a big fan of the art. And General Ross a Hulk character? Flash Thompson a Venom? And to me Deadpool seemed way too tame (if such a thing is possible). Read this via Comixology Unlimited. Sometimes a hit and at times like this, a miss.

So much potential, so much crap... 2/5 just because I'm a fan of Dillon's art since Preacher :(

I kinda feel like Daniel Way is under-rated. And I am a huge fan of Steve Dillon, who is particularly great a conveying expression, he is amazingly consistent in his characterizations and his illustrations have the weight of reality in them for me. If I had any criticism it would be that his action can be stiff and static at times. I feel like his art brings out Daniel Way's subtle nuances, the way he did with Ennis back when Dillon illustrated "PREACHER".So you have some awesome characters here...

War is ugly, so is the art. Engage at your own peril.

I really wanted to like this, after quite a few people told me good things about it. But it just fell very flat to me. It's always a risk putting The Punisher into the regular Marvel Universe. With a few exceptions (he works great with Daredevil, and I loved his role in Civil War), I prefer Frank Castle to be off in his own little world, independent of the rest of the Marvel books. This book is a good example why, as he just doesn't seem to fit naturally with the rest of these characters - I nev...

I liked Daniel Way's run on the regular Deadpool, so this came as a surprise: yaaaaawn. It has the feel of too many cooks stirring the pot. I'd skip it, although it's certainly better than putting out one's eye with a sharp stick.

I'm not sure why people don't like this - gathering Marvel's anti-heroes and putting them in a team is obviously MARVELLOUS!So the premise is that General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross (a.k.a. The Red Hulk) has recruited Agent Venom, Elektra, Deadpool and The Punisher to infiltrate the small nation of Kata Jaya to kill off a dictator called General Awa. Little do they know that Ross has his own reasons for the team and his own agendas; this puts Agent Venom on the case, trying to uncover Ross' sec...
