There's a story up at Newsarama. http://www.newsarama.com/Thunder.htm . Of course, they're being "modernized", so it sounds somewhat Authority-like, but I'm glad to see them back.

You could say that about 95% of the comics out today. Even the ones with good art tend to dark and static.

Simma down, James. That's the cover. Interiors haven't been shown yet. Your post should have read "Well, the cover is ugly..."

I agree. J.G. Jones' line art is brilliant, but his painting hasn't done it for me, ever.

You're quite right.
And I have to admit, on looking more closely, that the costume changes actually show some thoght about function--the cloak of invisibility being floor-length and Lightning wearing extra padding (I always thought speedsters in comics recklessly exposed themselves to damage).
Still, if the interior looks like this, I won't be able to read it. I'm hoping for flat color.

Relaunches of "Doom Patrol", "Suicide Squad", and now "T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents"?!
Do you think it will last at least 24 issues?

YES! Before I clicked on this topic I guessed that one of the first posters will have predicted a demise within "twenty-something issues."

Thanks, chris_ccl...just for being you.

I dunno -- I think the cover looks pretty spiffy. A whole book withthat look & texture could be a bit much, though.
