Transcript
Panel 1
(Jeremy is placing a cobra inside a cabinet.)
Jeremy: These assassination attempts are getting worse.
(Cassie Cruz, adjusting her glasses, speaks confidently.)
Cassie: I've been thinking...
We have multiple projects coming through different departments.
Panel 2
(Jeremy and Cassie stand facing each other, arms crossed, discussing a plan.)
Cassie: We can plant one lie in each employee's case files.
Panel 3
(Cassie smirks as she explains the trap further.)
Cassie: If we see the heroes act on one of the lies...
We'll know which worker leaked the information.
Panel 4

This Week in Villainy: April 9-14, 2007
Who’s Up and Who’s Thwarted
Green Goblin: Since becoming director of the Thunderbolts, Norman “Green Goblin” Osborne has put together the best super-villain group in the Marvel universe since the
Masters of Evil. His roster includes Moonstone (a Masters-of-Evil veteran), Songbird, Radioactive Man, Swordsman, Venom, Penance II, and Bullseye.
It should be noted that Double-G’s obsession with Spider-Man is already being foreshadowed in
Thunderbolts #113. That could very well become a distraction.
And Moonstone is distracting enough.
TWIV is going to track Green Goblin in the next few issues in case his current status requires an adjustment.
Read IGN’s 6-page
preview of Thunderbolts #113.
