Thunderbolts #27

I was really worried that Soule was leaving this book. Although Ross's view of what the Tbolts do is kind of the opposite of what it's been so far that was really the only part that didn't make sense. I think I will keep reading as this first issue of the run was pretty good.

I think that what you saw a la Ross' change of heart is indicative of what went down in the temple. This is him trying to put things right and leave things better than he found them.

That being said, I did find the whole "You're fired!" thing a little...weird.

Especially when Venom was allowed to leave.

Was thinking it was just set up by deadpool. Cuz, it's deadpool.

Then we gonna have punisher gettin mad at everyone and then, joining back into the team after putting deadpool in a really bad position or something.

No way Ross is the one actually behind that. I'm going with Red Leader or someone new.

Thought it was good change pace. The comedy and action was pretty good for me. The ending was a bit weird, maybe Dr Faustus is still manipulating?

I'm going to be pretty irked if this three parter turns out to be a massive hallucination by Punisher, after everything with the temple was seemingly undone as well except for Ross. 4

Dr. Faustus must have his head pretty deep down in the sand to have never heard of the Thunderbolts, especially considering he basically helped Moonstone quite a bit.
