Can't believe I haven't been beaten to the end of Thunderbolts Vol. 1. Thunderbolts #75 tied up a big pile of loose ends at the end of its storyline -- the split teams were reunited, the world was saved, Atlas got his powers back, Dallas Riordan was healed, some members went to prison, others left of their own accord, and Zemo drops a bombshell at the very end: he intends to save the world by conquering it, after all. Now what? ...Now the book loses its entire creative team, abandons the existing character set and storylines, designs the covers to look like Maxim and its ilk with "FOR REAL MEN" on them, and rambles for six issues about an underground fighting league for D-list supervillains.   Not one of Joe Quesada's better ideas. Sales went splat and the book was mercy-killed six issues later.

DarkCrawler posted:Yeah, I love Alan Davis, but he's one of those artists who are physically incapable of drawing women as anything else but babes and men as Greek gods. I think it was Excalibur #16 that had a recaptioned panel on its letter page -- Rachel in this barely-there medieval suit, a sword in each hand, yelling "WHAT DO YOU MEAN I WON'T HAVE ALAN DAVIS DRAWING ME NEXT ISSUE?"  (also yes Kitty just shanked someone)
