THUNDERBOLTS CLASSIC 03 - Tapa blanda

The Thunderbolts return to Earth after an interdimensional journey to Kosmos, but there's no rest for the weary as they find themselves pursued by S.H.I.E.L.D. - as well as a recovering Baron Zemo, who's out for their blood! Has this team of villains posing as heroes truly reformed? And even so, will anyone believe them? One person might...a surprising figure from the ranks of the mighty Avengers, who briefly went down a villainous road himself many years before: the Avenging Archer, Hawkeye! He could offer the T-Bolts redemption...but at what price?
