☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents story involving the villain Speed-Demon, who moves with such velocity that agent Lightning struggles to combat him effectively. During their confrontation, Speed-Demon mysteriously becomes weak and exits the battle, prompting the agents to investigate his unusual behavior. The team later encounters the immortal agent NoMan, who reveals he has been tracking Speed-Demon and the demons pursuing him, with NoMan using his invisibility powers to intervene in the conflict and prevent the demons from capturing their target.
Dynamo faces off against SPIDER's artificially enhanced operative, Rocky, a superpowered brute created by the villain organization's mysterious "Transformer" device—but when Dynamo discovers the machine is slowly killing its subject, he must find a way to survive the encounter and stop Rocky before it's too late. Written by the T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents creative team, "Strength Is Not Enough!" pits raw superhuman power against quick thinking in a desperate race against time.
Lightning faces his toughest challenge yet when a mysterious speedster—even faster than the T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agent himself—begins systematically raiding T.H.U.N.D.E.R. bases across the network. Staking out the Rochester Base to intercept the thief, Lightning discovers his enemy is dangerously swift and nearly unstoppable, but notices something troubling about the villain after their clash. With T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Headquarters itself now in the crosshairs, Lightning must devise a strategy using his hard-won experience against super-powered foes to stop a criminal who outmatches him in raw speed.
NoMan takes on a scientific criminal known as "the Rock," who's harnessed the power to transform matter itself—turning men to stone and coal into diamonds—in a bid to shatter the world's economy. Tracking the villain across international crime networks from Marseille to a hidden farmhouse, NoMan must stop him before his silicon-based formula falls into the wrong hands or destroys everything around him. A battle of wits and willpower ensues as the android agent confronts an enemy whose weapon is as dangerous as his ambition.
When T.H.U.N.D.E.R.'s command discovers a bug planted in their headquarters by S.P.I.D.E.R., the chief devises a risky scheme: stage Lightning's dramatic resignation to lure the enemy out of hiding. But when Lightning's cover is accidentally exposed during the capture, the Thunder Squad must pivot to their backup plan—letting one S.P.I.D.E.R. agent escape so they can track him back to enemy headquarters. What they don't count on is that S.P.I.D.E.R. has its own contingency waiting in the wings.
The Raven investigates a Nazi plot centered in Mexico City, where a ruthless Gestapo general and his operatives are hiding out and planning fresh operations. When Mexican intelligence identifies the enemy base and attempts a peaceful arrest, the villa transforms into a war zone—forcing the T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agent and local authorities to mount a counterattack to stop them before they can strike again.
