30 Marvel Memes With Extra Thunderbolts (Because This Movie Hit Harder Than Expected)

Let's get one thing straight: Thunderbolts was good.
Like, surprisingly good. It was fun, it was wholesome, it was chaotic in all the right ways—but most of all? It was honest.

Honest about the fact that the MCU's been wandering aimlessly since Endgame. Honest about how Marvel hasn't really managed to make new "big" heroes stick. Honest about how some of the old heroes feel, well… tired. And honestly? That's what made it work.

Thunderbolts isn't trying to one-up the Avengers. It's not chasing the next Thanos. It's a movie about failure, burnout, wasted potential, and how those things don't have to define you. It's about feeling like a side character in your own story and figuring out how to move forward anyway. The MCU needed this movie. A lot of us did too.

So in honor of the misfits, the almost-heroes, and Marvel's ongoing redemption arc, here are 30 memes that capture the awkward, self-aware, and still-somehow-superpowered mood of Thunderbolts.
