In a remarkable escape, Baron Zemo's Thunderbolts made it off Counter-Earth and through the Void! And now they are standing in Symkaria staring Hawkeye's Thunderbolts in the face! Both teams are shocked to see one another! But before they can enjoy a happy reunion, they must plug the Void from the Earth-616 side. Once that perilous task is complete, the day of reckoning arrives for one Baron Helmut Zemo! Silver Sable wants to arrest him! Citizen V wants to kill him! But they cannot. For he is literally not the same man anymore. As a result the twelve thunderbolts retire to a villa in the Canary Islands to determine what to do next. Amazon, Skein, MACH-3, and Harrier elect to leave the team. While Atlas, Dallas Riordan, Blackheath, Fixer, Moonstone, and Songbird decide to stay. Those six T-Bolts will choose their leader going forward. Surely they will pick the former avenger instead of the Prussian baron with tyrannical tendencies -- right? The first issue of the Thunderbolts ended with a shocking twist. Will the last issue do the same? Cameo appearances by Jim Hammond, Elisabeth Barstow, Jolt, and the Young Allies.

(Notes: This issue is effectively the final issue of the first volume of the Thunderbolts as the title is revamped with new characters for issue #76. Baron Zemo and the Thunderbolts return in the Avengers Thunderbolts (2004) limited series and then in the New Thunderbolts (2005) title. This issue completes Fabian Nicieza's enjoyable 3-year run as the writer of the Thunderbolts series.
