3. “Too Many Masters!”

Writer: Kurt Busiek
Artist: Mark Bagley

Well, turns out the Masters of Evil are back. And that makes our Thunderbolts feel weird. The team having to constantly fight people they used to work with is such a great fun idea and they play with it a lot. As well, the team is starting to settle in to their new roles as heroes. Specifically Mach-1 and Songbird, who are also coming together as a romantic pair. It's really cute. And Atlas is developing a thing for Mayor Dallas Riordan.

After their work saving Franklin Richards last issue, the city has ceded the Fantastic Four's old headquarters, Four Freedoms Plaza to the team and it's undergoing renovations. It's amazing how timeless some of Bagley's designs are, specifically Songbird and Atlas, who have kept very similar costumes up until the present.

Meanwhile in the background of the last three issues, Hallie Takayama, a teenager from New York, has been kidnapped and experimented on by Arnim Zola and has now developed electrical super powers. And she's shown up at Thunderbolts headquarters looking for help.
