Written by Jeff Parker

Cover by Marko Djurdjevic
Heroic Age Variant by Larry Stroman
The Heroic Age Is Here! The new era for Marvel’s always-evolving, always controversial team kicks off here! It’s a beginning, a return, a departure, and an arrival of a new artist (Marvel Zombies 3 & 4’s Kev Walker) all rolled into one in a fresh, shocking status quo! The most dangerous people on Earth are now all in one hellish prison, and the only way out is through rehabilitation and contribution to society via The Thunderbolts...under the leadership of the steel-hard-skinned Avenger named Luke Cage! So bring on the first participants: Juggernaut! Crossbones! Ghost! Moonstone! And...Man-Thing? Against the sordid recent history of the group as a black ops kill squad, can Power Man restore the Thunderbolts to their rightful potential?

I'm told by muckheads Daryl Young and P-Tor that Man-Thing turns up in Wolverine: Wendigo #1 (March 2010), in the form of a reprinted panel from the Marvels, Mutants & Monsters : Galactus online comic
Letterer Todd Klein has recently updated (sentance in
bold) the news on his site
regarding the long lost Man-Thing graphic novel: Not sure what the
final title of this will be, it's a script from the 1990s, I
believe, by Steve Gerber, with terrific art by Kevin Nowlan, who
started it a long time ago, and is now finally wrapping it up.
Wild stuff, wonderful art! The project has been dormant
for a while, but Marvel recently asked for lettering on most of
the remaining pages. Alas, this one has gone dormant again, haven't seen any new pages from Kevin in many months.

Franken-Castle, Part 2
The Punisher is dead, so who, or what, is the giant patchwork
monster skulking through the tunnels under New York? And what do
those strange armored Japanese hunters tracking him want?
Criminals are no longer being killed; they are simply vanishing
into thin air. Listen closely, you can hear their pleas far below
the streets. Those forgotten by society have a new protector. The
Legion of Monsters has found a new leader.

Head Trip, Part 6
Space, the Final Frontier. O-ver-ra-ted. Wade, the severed Zombie
Deadpool head and Dr. Betty find themselves back on good old
Earth, knee-deep in swampy goodness. Seems like Headpool is a
little homesick, and everyone agrees the zombie virus should be
put safely back into its own dimension. All they've got to do is
find that damn dimensional portal. Anyway, you don't think A.I.M,
is gonna give up that easy, do you? No way. Just because their
space station got itself all blown up doesn't mean they're out of
the game. But wait -- who's this surprise guest star? Is it a
MAN? Is it a THING? Well, you see where this is going ... Is this
enough preview copy to get you to buy the damn book'because I can
go on all night?!
