"End of a Circle" marks a pivotal moment in the Thunderbolts' journey, as Cage and his team track down rogue members at a forgotten lair tied to Satana. Amid eerie, dreamlike visions stirred by an enchanted river, Songbird is haunted by memories of her time with the team—revealing deeper layers to her past without giving away where it leads. With art by Declan Shalvey and colors by Frank Martin Jr., the issue blends supernatural tension with emotional weight, while Roberto de la Torre's cover captures the haunting atmosphere of the location.

In "End of a Circle," Luke Cage leads his team to a forgotten Thunderbolt lair beneath Satana’s domain, where an enchanted river stirs long-buried memories. As Songbird confronts visions of her past as Screaming Mimi, the team grapples with the ghosts of their own histories—some real, some imagined—while the echoes of old allies like Baron Helmut Zemo, Mach V, and even Spider-Man linger in the shadows.
