During this time, Busiek also had many letters published in comic book letter columns, and originated the theory that the Phoenix was a separate being who had impersonated Jean Grey, and that therefore Grey had not died-a premise which made its way from freelancer to freelancer, and which was eventually used in the comics.ĭuring the last semester of his senior year, Busiek submitted some sample scripts to editor Dick Giordano at DC Comics. Throughout high school and college, he and future writer Scott McCloud practiced making comics.
This was the first part of a continuity-heavy four-part story arc Busiek was drawn to the copious history and cross-connections with other series. He began to read them regularly around the age of 14, when he picked up a copy of Daredevil #120. She appeared in the 2004 "Avengers/Thunderbolts" series, but has otherwise been M.I.A.Kurt Busiek is an American comic book writer notable for his work on the Marvels limited series, his own title Astro City, and his four-year run on Avengers.īusiek did not read comics as a youngster, as his parents disapproved of them.
Despite being a major player in the initial "Thunderbolts" run, Jolt has rarely been seen since the end of the first "Thunderbolts" volume in 2003. Jolt originally appeared in "Thunderbolts" #1 and joined the team a few issues later, presenting a major wrinkle in Baron Zemo's secret plan. Marvel has yet to reveal whether or not Songbird will have a role to play in the issue itself, though. Songbird, another original 'Bolter, can currently be seen in the pages of "New Avengers," although she does also appear alongside the current Thunderbolts lineup in Mark Bagley's variant cover for issue #10. Atlas, Fixer, Moonstone and Mach-X were with the team 20 years ago when Baron Zemo started them as a cover identity for the Masters of Evil - and they're with the team today. The anniversary storyline comes at a fitting moment for the team, as the roster now includes almost all of the original lineup. Additionally, original "Thunderbolts" creators Kurt Busiek and Mark Bagley will return to the series they launched 20 years ago for an all-new backup story featuring the return of classic T'bolts member Jolt.
