This is it, the finale to writer Andy Diggle's run! Who is Scourge? What is Black Widow II's game? Who answers Songbird's cry for help? All the answers are supplied here, in the latest shocking installment!
A great issue that makes me feel that Diggle's leaving too soon. It's too bad that so much is undone. Read Full Review

The art has been serviceable over the past few issues, though the covers are unrelentingly grim (they look like advertisements for dull video games). This is the title defined by the likes Bagley, Grummett and Deodato, so I'd love an art upgrade. But Diggle clearly knows what he's doing, and having a handle on this title's high concept is paramount. Read Full Review
There's a lot of fun stuff going on here: the rifts in the team, the surprise new leader, the identity of Scourge. But by being tied into "Dark Reign," it's hard to feel like this is going to last for too much longer. Still, Diggle's done a good job with being handed a strange situation, and I'll be sorry to see him leave. Hopefully Jeff Parker will be able to pick up the pieces left behind and run with them; there's a lot of potential in these characters, and hopefully they won't get entirely thrown out with "Dark Reign" and its inevitable conclusion.

It's a little disheartening to see Diggle go out like this when he's been quite successful on the title since his arrival. Thunderbolts seems positioned to go on with many good story possibilities as Jeff Parker jumps on as writer, but the title has definitely seen better than this under Andy Diggle. Read Full Review
