Random thought that I didn’t know where else to post -
Jim Zub was promoting his last volume of Thunderbolts as “Ted Lasso in the Marvel Universe,” but I’m reading the Busiek and Bagley issues from when Hawkeye first joins the team again, and getting that vibe way more from them.
A genuinely good guy joins a team that’s lacking direction and looks for the best in all of them and just believes in them to help them succeed on their own. One of his star players has to go away (MACH-1) but he gains another one (Charcoal). There are a number of secret plots working against him, most of them planned by the attractive blonde woman.
Like it’s not 1:1, but the vibes are there way more than they were in the last volume IMO
Colored warm-up drawing of Moonstone. I really like this character a lot, but this is the first time I’ve ever drawn her, because she’s never had a costume that I’ve liked much at all. I might play around with designing one, hmm hmm hmm.
Ink & Digital, 9 x 12 inches
JoJo Seames, 2023
My hand hurts so fucking bad why did I draw all this in one night
But you know those thunderbolts guys? and that one dead mobile game where theyre all in school??
And also early 2000s american/canadian cartoons?
You get the gist
Love Songbird and Karla here so much.
Zemo also looks fabulous and the rest are great too.

Marvel Masterpieces - Series 6 (2007)

I think this is actually the MACH-I costume, not the MACH-IV, but it’s a trading card so whatcha gonna do?

The Uncanny Omar announces the Thunderbolts/Dark Avengers by Jeff Parker omnibus for release in December 2023!
Thunderbolts #144-174 and Dark Avengers 175-190, all written by Jeff Parker, with art by Kev Walker, Declan Shalvey, Neil Edwards, and I think one or two others.
I. CAN’T. WAIT.
Moonstone (Classic)
Dr Karla Sofen. Formidable opponent of the 80s Avengers, and after that, her story took another unexpected twist! (wink, wink)
