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.

Hail Hydra. Hail DOOM. Marvel’s One World Under Doom #1 — the first in a nine-issue series that sees Victor von Doom, Earth’s new Sorcerer Supreme, take over the world as leader of a new United Latveria — kicked off with Doom declaring a new world order: one world under Doom.

One of the least likely Avengers has apparently become a congressman in Marvel's Thunderbolts* movie, marking an unusual turn of events for the MCU character.
