Well I figured Warren Ellis’ finale on Thunderbolts would be
action-packed and it was, but unfortunately it wasn’t much else.
Moonstone fights with Doc and Robbie, Green Goblin fights with
Songbird, and the rest of the Thunderbolts are no where to be found
except for one reappearance towards the end of the issue which I’m sure
is no surprise to anyone who has been following the book. A weak ending
to what was an incredible run by Ellis. With Ellis departing and a
bunch of Secret Invasion tie-in issues coming up I’m not sure whether
I’ll continue to read Thunderbolts.

you have to give new creators a chance just because your favorite writer is leaving doesen’t mean the series won’t be good any more
but it is sad to see him leave
Keep in mind that Ellis has actually stated he prefers doing short runs when he’s working with other people’s properties. I think it’s a good system — he comes in, shakes things up, and leaves a lot of possibilities for the next team. I expect his Astonishing X-men will work that way, too.
