List of Thunderbolts Members - Roster List

Roster List

The codenames listed under Character are those used during the time frame that the character was a member; under the notes section, super-villain codenames are listed if applicable. Many characters changed their codenames upon joining the Thunderbolts team. Characters with more than one codename for the period they were Thunderbolts members have them listed chronologically and separated by a slash (/). Bolded names are the active team members.

First Appearance is the place where the character first appeared as a member of the team. It is not necessarily the first appearance of the character in print, nor the story depicting how the character joined the team.

All information is listed in publication order first, then alphabetical.

Famous quotes containing the word list:

    I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
