In light of most prominent super heroes of Earth being declared dead, Baron Zemo placed his criminal Masters of Evil in a position of trust by deceiving the authorities and the public, secretly rebranding them as the Thunderbolts.[4] Zemo eventually outed his own schemes to the world, but his Thunderbolts defected, deciding to reform and enjoy the respect their charade had brought them instead.[9]
Throughout the years, the Thunderbolts operated as a virtuous group when led by Hawkeye,[10] Luke Cage,[11] and the Winter Soldier,[12] as well as a patrolling force for the corrupted when commanded by Norman Osborn,[13] and Wilson Fisk.[3]
More recently, Cage assembled a new team with the intention of cleaning the legacy of the Thunderbolts' name as a super hero team, following Wilson Fisk’s misuse of the name during his reign of terror.[14][15]
