"MODERN MARVELS" Flushed with success, the Big Apple's newest heroes have to face their greatest challenge yet: an adoring public and the reflections in their mirrors! A new story arc begins with a self-contained jumping-on point: "Modern Marvels," shows how the "man on the street" views the T-Bolts -- and if that matches how the T-Bolts view themselves...

Marvel Fandom Synopsis for "Modern Marvels"
Brie Larmer sat down with Dennis Schoolcroft and Seth Voelker (formerly Sidewinder) to give an interview. Larmer asked Schoolcroft if recruiting superhuman criminals to perform acts of heroism as rehabilitation was better than jail time. Schoolcroft claimed that the question was not easy and advertised his book "Modern Marvels."

Meanwhile, at the Thunderbolts hideout, Songbird and Atlas observed Photon and Radioactive Man when they saw Joystick appear on Good Morning America. Donnie and Jim met at a pub with Herman Schultz for a job.

Back at the interview, Commissioner Kelly revealed that they were currently working with the DHS to determine how to classify the Thunderbolts. At the hideout, Melissa confronted Abe about taking money from Baron von Strucker.

Larmer displayed public opinions of the Thunderbolts: all of which were in support of them. Atlas asked Photon if he remembered anything before he died, which he did not, as Songbird observed. Radioactive Man visited the Chinese consulate in Manhattan where he talked with ambassadors.

Larmer welcomed Condoleezza Rice to her show and brought up the issue of the Radioactive Man. After Joystick returned, Songbird told Abe that she was leaving.
