In the wake of tragedy, they appeared on the scene as a beacon of hope to a world that had lost most of its greatest heroes. They called themselves The Thunderbolts, and they promised to carry on the proud traditions set forth by such brave and noble super-powered teams as the Fantastic Four and the Avengers! Little did the world know, however, that the Thunderbolts were actually wolves in sheeps' clothing — supervillains disguised as new heroes — the latest incarnation of Baron Helmut Zemo's Masters of Evil!
