THUNDERBOLTS #-1 (1997): ORIGINS!

This series has barely gotten started, and so we get a group of tales about the members of the team back when they were young–showing events that shaped their criminal careers. This is the PERFECT use of a one-shot for a new comic about a group of D-listers that many readers may never have even heard of.

There are World War 2 stories about the Zemo family, and this great fake house ad establishing the original Citizen V (who is killed by the original Baron Zemo in the comic) as a WW2 hero.

Stan remarks on how sad that ending is.

Fixer gets a full origin…

Songbird does, too…

Her abusive daddy looks like a fat Wolverine.

Lots of fun.
