"No one ever said being good would be easy". The much acclaimed saga of Marvel villains becoming heroes. After 81 issues, the series took a brief hiatus. A few months later, the Thunderbolts returned in the mini-series Avengers/Thunderbolts before returning fully in the ongoing New Thunderbolts series with a new number one. The original numbering however is also visible, making that issue 82 - 99 of the collective Thunderbolts series. The series returned to its original numbering with issue 100 in Thunderbolts (2006). The series had two annuals,Thunderbolts '97 and Thunderbolts 2000 and an annual-like special in 2001 named Thunderbolts: Life Sentences. A prelude to this series was found in the Tales of the Marvel Universe one-shot.
