Double pass.  I have no connection to either character.

I want to say double pass but I would probably bite on Nightwatch (on sale).   Zelma is an easy pass.

I'd buy both, but neither is a priority for me right now.

Day #1216 - Stingray and Jolt (Archive Day #479 and were both PantherCult's second Guest Star Day choices!)

Stingray

Jolt

I mean... we know the answer here right?    

These were the ones I suggested so you know I definitely want them.   Stingray is solidly a top 20 want of mine right now.    I think he's like 12 or 13 on my Most wanted list currently - but .    He's my third most wanted Avenger behind Jack of Hearts and Starfox.   I love the original design - it's sleek and striking and would look fantastic on a shelf.   I'm much less enamored of the more conspicuously armored versions in the later pictures.   But yes please I desperately want Stingray in my collection.

And of course Jolt.   We've been discussing how to finish the Thunderbolts line up and I'm talking the original team.  We have Citizen V, Songbird and Mach-V.    But we need Meteorite, Atlas, Techno and Jolt at a minimum.   Jolt was such a fun character in those original Thunderbolts books - she was the heart of the team and was a key reason that characters like Josten and Melissa decided to really be heroes.    Now that they've done the smaller female body with Valeria Richards I think Jolt could be done using mostly paint and a new head -  they could even skip the knee pads and elbow pads for the sake of budget if they needed to and it wouldn't be that dramatic.   I definitely want the classic early Tbolts look with the black costume with red and yellow accents.    They could repaint that in the electric-Superman look she had later if they felt like it.

So obviously a huge yes from me today since I nominated both of these characters for this list way back when.

Loudest possible "YES!" on both of today's selections. Stingray in his classic (Handbook) look, and Jolt in her first costume. Both characters are much needed, and long, long overdue.

Absolutely, positively YES, to original looks for both of them.  Both are needed for teams completion, in their classic looks.  I do grow weary of artists who keep trying to “reinvent the wheel” with different looks, and who so seldom succeed.   

I'd get classic versions of both. 🙂

Stingray is an absolute yes!

Jolt is a pass for me.  Thunderbolts is past my reading days.

HUGE HELPING OF HELL YEAH for Stingray.   I mean that costume is just so great and he deserves to have a figure made.

Jolt, while I know is an important part of the original Thunderbolts, is not someone I am actually looking to get.   I would probably get her on sale to add to the team, but otherwise I really don't consider her part of the original lineup of villains-as-heroes.   

Yes, I'd absolutely definitely buy both of Jolt and Stingray.

Yes to both Stingray and Jolt.

 but I really don't consider her part of the original lineup of villains-as-heroes.   

I don't understand this thinking at all.   Jolt joined the team in Thunderbolts #1 and stuck around for years.   Sure she was the only one who didn't start out with a villain alter ego -  but the team made literally two comic appearances before Jolt joined -  Incredible Hulk 449 and Marvel Team Up 7  -  so not considering her one of the original members of the team would be like saying Captain America, Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch aren't part of the Avengers because they didn't show up until issue 4.   Ridiculous.

Yes to both, especially Stingray. Jolt I'd prefer in her first costume.

@panthercult Hardly ridiculous just because you disagree.   It is just how I feel about the character, it is not some terrible take that is set in stone that should be taken as gospel.   Opinion simple as that.
