Marvel Just Officially Set Up the MCU’s Own Suicide Squad (& Nobody Noticed)

Many viewers assume Marvel’s Thunderbolts are similar to DC’s Suicide Squad, but this overlooks key differences in their origins. In the comics, the Thunderbolts started as villains pretending to be heroes while the Avengers were gone, and some of them actually enjoyed being good guys. Later versions of the team continued to focus on redemption and positive change. The recent Thunderbolts movie emphasized this theme, showing a group of damaged individuals finding family and striving for forgiveness. However, recent developments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe suggest they might be moving towards a storyline more akin to the Suicide Squad, quietly gathering a team of anti-heroes.
