Thunderbolts #13

Thunderbolts #13 where we finally learn the backstory to Mercy.  She once fought the Hulk and was left for dead in a coma.  General Ross the Red Hulk had freed her in the past and then tracked her down now.  We learn all this in a flashback that covers almost the entire comic book.  It is a rather wimpy story thread and it actually makes the reason for this team lame.  At first the comic seemed to be a way for Ross to fix things that were wrong in the world.  Some of the problems he caused and other problems were caused by other people / heroes or whatever.  But instead all this random death and destruction is to keep some vampire powered villainess fed is not that great a plot point.  While the story itself was good I am disappointed in the overall plot.
