***
Yes. There are 6 Archives that collectively reprint the original 20 issues published in the 60s by Tower. There were two revivals in the early 80s, but neither was reprinted in the Archives line (nor anywhere else, to the best of my knowledge).

TwoMorrows also released a T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents companion.
I'd highly recommend the Archives, the Companion, and more JB comissions.
These characters were also my idea for a future comission.

I'm very impressed with the number of figures in this and the Alpha Flight commission. Never would have guessed that many figure would work so well in an 11x17 format.

Count me in among the crowd for whom T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents are unfamilar... BUT man o man, do I want to read some after seeing JB's piece. And would I love to see a JB series with them.
JB, I am simply and very humbly amazed at how you can pack so much action, emotion, etc into an image that gives it such a total impact on me despite my total lack of familiarity with the characters outside of the piece itself. Just amazed! Hats off.
Might have to look up the Archives... or hope for a Showcase or two.

If you think about it, these pieces are basically cover shots. So what you
describe is a cover doing the job it's supposed to do. (As opposed to
being a pretty pin-up that says "Hey! Can this guy paint, or what?")
(And, thanks, by the way!)
