Thunderbolts* is best approached as a screen interpretation of the character’s foundations rather than a panel-for-panel adaptation. Start with Thunderbolts #1–12 (1997), then compare it with Dark Avengers #1–6 and Sentry #1–5 (2000). Reading the references alongside the movie makes it easier to see what the filmmakers retained, combined or reinvented for the screen.

Connection: Team/character synthesis; not original team premise
