But timed to the recent Super Bowl trailer came a tweet from Marvel Studios Japan featuring an international Thunderbolts* poster which seems to give away the meaning of the asterisk: “*The Avengers are not available” it reads.

Marvel is no stranger to misleading trailers, and it would be wildly out of character for them to spoil a major plot point like a character’s death so blatantly. If anything, the absence of Taskmaster in the marketing might hint at a bigger role in Thunderbolts* than people expect.

Not to be confused with The Noid, who ruins pizzas, The Void is a serious threat facing the characters in Marvel's Thunderbolts.
