    Comic Vine - Corey 'Undeadpool' Schroeder Oct 23, 2013

    Just when I was ready to get a little bored with the mobster subplot, Soule goes and makes it interesting by adding a twist from the Infinity storyline itself and Im back to being interested. Theres definitely a lot to this book, and I can understand why its not necessarily for everyone, but for my money, its tough to find a better melding of comedy and action in Marvels pantheon, and very few books in comics in general can accomplish it. If youre ready to not take some very serious characters very seriously, its an easy recommend. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Jordan Richards Oct 23, 2013

    Then you have the empty and blank backgrounds with gradient filters and the poor anatomy of the characters and then you have artwork that is just distracting from the main product. The art might work for something else, but again, just not here. 8.0 The characters and humor are very enjoyable.The story, while slow and simple, is still engaging.Needs a new artist for sure.This book's time frame does not make much sense.

    Punisher Central - Ivo Santos Oct 24, 2013

    After last issue that in general was really decent and the only inconsistencies i found were about the Punisher characterization, this one was really a good comic to read with all the action we have for the first page to the end. Read Full Review

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Hugo Robberts Lariviere Oct 25, 2013

    The mix of dark humor, neat characterization and interactions along with a good bit of action makes this book a nice reading experience, despite the quality of the art team. It's an improvement over last month in some respects, but it' still not the hit it could very well be with the right creative team. Read Full Review

    Marvel Disassembled - Michael Bowie Oct 28, 2013

    Marvel seems to have mastered the art of stringing me along with this book. Whenever I start having thoughts of dropping this book they plant seeds of what's coming that intrigue me just enough to keep me interested. This time around? Come February the book is getting another new artist, and a new co-star in the form of Ghost Rider. With any luck, and the removal of Venom (please), Thunderbolts may actually become something really good. Read Full Review

    Geeks Unleashed - Chris Romero Oct 25, 2013

    Although the artwork lacks visual appeal, Thunderbolts #17 does pack an interesting cliffhanger, paving the way for a potentially cool story to follow. Read Full Review
