The new hardscrabble MARVEL: THUNDERBOLTS* Special Look.

I still don’t know why the asterisk. Anyway… it’s kind of growing on me, you know? Sort of like SUICIDE SQUAD, with extra self-awareness. I mean, just look at this picture. Everything about THUNDERBOLTS is Silver to the MCU’s Golden Age, or possibly Bronze.

And it knows it. That’s what makes it interesting. There’s no illusions, no attempts to pretty it up. If this movie could drink, it’d be drinking the cheap stuff – and would start a brawl if mocked for it.

I weirdly respect that. At least the movie’s honest about itself.
