Synopsis for the 1st StoryEdit

As the Thunderbolts prepare to depart for Asgard, where Osborn is besieging, Ant-Man runs up to Paladin to express his concerns over going up against gods and that Osborn doesn't know about Scourge killing Headsman. Paladin points out that Scourge didn't shoot him and he doesn't care. As they get onto Zeus, a message from Osborn tells him that they are to steal the Spear of Odin form Asgard's armory, which apparently has no magical safeguard unlike Thor's Mjolnir and deliver it to him.

Meanwhile, right in Asgard, Ghost materializes, having failed to kill Tony Stark. He then intercepts Osborn's transmission and realizes that Osborn has staged the Soldier Field incident. Knowing that Scourge would not question the mission, Ghost attempted to contact anyone who could stop the Thunderbolts. However, he couldn't contact Stark, break through the Baxter Building's firewalls or access the offline Cerebra. Therefore, he sent the message to Amadeus Cho, who contacts U.S. Agent.

Above Asgard, Zeus approaches, only to be shot out of the air by an Asgardian bowman. The Thunderbolts barely managed to parachute from it in time. As soon as they land, Scourge reprimanded Paladin for second-guessing him and losing his helmet. Paladin shoots back that there wasn't time to grab it and they aren't the army. Scourge defends that they are on a federal mission and refuses to tolerate anymore insubordination, citing Headsman and Ghost being AWOL; Mr. X corrects that he shot Headsman and accuses him of being unstable. Scourge didn't take well to such an accusation and pulled up a gun; X dared him to do it, if it is to prove how psycho he is. Grizzly breaks it all off by asking everyone to help him open the doors to the armory, which leads straight to the treasury. X helps himself to a shield and chain while the others except Scourge help themselves to Asgardian gold. Scourge, refusing anymore insubordination, fires at paladin, reminding him that the job is not about money. But the mercenary said that they only reason he is on the Thunderbolts is because it pays, unlike Scourge, who lives to kill. They then open the box where the spear is.

Unfortunately, their yelling has attracted the attention of an Asgardian guard, who intends to kill them for burglary. X manages to kill the guard by stabbing him in the back of the neck. The other Thunderbolts except Scourge are shocked at what just happened. But just to brighten their day even further, the Mighty Avengers crash in.
