Should Thunderbolts have been in MCU Phase 1?

Should Thunderbolts have been in MCU Phase 1?

Author: Jason Inman & Ashley Victoria Robinson May 6, 2025 Duration: 58:42
From the dark places of the Marvel Comics Universe Geek History Lesson dares to shine a light on the super team - are they heroes? - The Thunderbolts. This team has made it to the big screen world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe led by Bucky Barnes, although on screen it does not appear to follow the comic book team in the slightest. We explore the similarities and differences in Thunderbolts media (Spoiler-free!), and ask the big question: should The Thunderbolts have debuted earlier in MCU history? One co-host thinks YES and one disagrees! Time to listen to discuss The Thunderbolts!
