Thunderbolts (Earth-70709)



Thunderbolts is a team and organization of united super-villains. This organization is formed secretly underground through various other minor criminal organizations, such as drug cartels, Mafia, even international organizations, such as Yakuza or others. At first, this organization's members are only common militias and terrorists, however, after the imprisonment and defeat of Abdul Shatalov AKA Abomination, suddenly "out of nowhere", the thugs and terrorists alike just gone and replaced by super-villains. The objective of the Thunderbolts is like any other super-villain organizations, which is conquer the world, or if can, the whole universe.

Overview
This organization or team is based on those of the same organization/team in Marvel comics called Thunderbolts too. However, this version of the Thunderbolts took another path. Instead of like the mainstream comics, when this team is founded only as another "branch" of Masters of Evil by Baron Zemo and most of the members reform, this team is founded "independently" at first through criminal organizations alike, and finally through some underground "villains". Like mentioned above, at first the Thunderbolts are only used as some kind of "terrorist" organization akin to those of Al-Qaeda or Taliban, but with a larger scale, although Al-Qaeda and Taliban does not exist in Earth-70709. Also, due to the nature of Earth-70709's high tech, this organization at first gained many high tech weapons, even experimental ones. Later on, suddenly, the organization is turned into a super-villain organization to conquer the world, or if can, the universe. The group is formed like the SSA, shortly after the defeat of Abomination in the hands of Omni-Man. This group's members consisted of some "infamous" super-villains who have not yet get the "eyes of the world on them" or simply, haven't known to the world.

The Thunderbolts are funded independently through some companies that are ran by unknowingly, a villain. Not just that, through some corrupt soldiers or mercenaries around the world during war times or conflicts, the Thunderbolts gain money. Not just that, even normal bank robberies also fund this villain organization. The loyalty is always questioned, however as always, the funding goes on even if the cost might have been death.

The super-villain members gained their powers through various ways. Whether it's magical, or scientific, or cosmic by nature, they all have the same objective.

Trivia

 * This Thunderbolts are like a mix of DC's Injustice League, Legion of Doom, and other villain organizations as well as Marvel's Masters of Evil, Revengers and a little bit of HYDRA thrown in.
 * Similar, but still unlike the SSA, some of the members of the Thunderbolts are a mash-up of some characters. However, in the Thunderbolts, some characters are not just a mash-up of comic book characters but also game and movie characters, such as Dwayne Rumlow Hicks, who is an amalgamation of Marvel's Crossbones and Alien's Dwayne Hicks.
