Ever wanted to play the role of Luke Cage and pick which super villain has what it takes to earn a spot on the Thunderbolts? Here’s your chance!
THUNDERBOLTS writer Jeff Parker has begun preliminary evaluations on who should join the T-Bolts and he wants your help.
"Somehow we've gotten the idea that you readers have opinions on who would make a good Thunderbolt,” he says. “Remember a villain you want back in the spotlight? Then hit me! We're planning out next year and 2011 could have a lot more of your favorite heavy in it."
Below, you’ll find a poll currently populated with 13 prime candidates for the roster as well as a spot for your own write-in choice; simply select the not-so-nice guy or girl you find most deserving or intriguing, or come up with your pick—we’re flexible! Jeff will weigh your input, take all opinions under consideration, and make the best decision for the team.
So get down to business, vote, and keep checking back right here on Marvel.com for updates as well as thoughts from Mr. Parker himself.
And remember: The future of the Thunderbolts could well rest in your hands!
Why not have Imperfect characters like Brigade or Hazmat on the Thunderbolts?
I would like to see this as a chance to get more black characters in the MU out there. For some reason there are only white names on the list, but there are always write ins.

Here's an idea, why not make a storyline about the people before they take on the identity, like Black Spectre. Because the previous guy is dead, why not make someone new or old to take the mantle. It could be a former supervillain we've never seen for a long time, or somebody new. The reason I picked Black Spectre is that he is a brutal and grittier fighter and I think the teams needs one because it already has tech peoples and power lots. Either him or Batroc, which I don't mind. Another I'm thinking of is Morgan le Fay. This is mearly optional. The Shocker is my hopeful choice, including Sandman. Also Scarecrow is an interesting choice.
