The Thunderbolts have had several different writers and superhero/villain leaders over the years, but when they made their first appearance it was the Masters of Evil in disguise who controlled the group. This surprised twist a well-kept secret within Marvel Comics was considered to be Marvel’s finest plot-twist in the history of American comics and with Wizard magazine fans voting it "Comics' Greatest Moment of 1997" (Wizard Magazine, 1997).

Thunderbolts comics seen its demise with issue #76, despite its critical claim the book was totally reformatted with an entire new cast and a new writer, John Arcudi. Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada was banking on this new format to match the success of his X-Force comics, but the new changes did not sit well with fans of Marvel’s Thunderbolts and the comic book only ran for six issues.

Thunderbolts #110 brought a new writer, Warren Ellis and changes once again, these changes included a new cast and politics. This change would lead the comic to Marvel Comics next big event, The Civil War with the team serving as a dark reflection of the event's controversial ending.

Issue #121 gave readers a new writer Christos Gage, who wrote three one-shots and a four-issue tie-in with Secret Invasion. Issue #126 started with another writer, Andie Diggle whom would take the comic book in a new direction with a new team line-up.
