10 TV21 Strips That Would Make Great ‘Thunderbirds Are Go’ Episodes

March 28, 2015 by Gary Collinson

The Earthquake Maker

A strip that ticks all the boxes for all-out, adrenaline charged adventure, The Earthquake Maker saw International Rescue being pitted against another ruthless criminal intent on making a fortune from corrupt governments via triggering off several man-made earthquakes throughout Iran.

A plot that coupled International Rescue having to save several Iranian towns and themselves once they scupper the criminal’s plans with some wonderfully barren locations, “The Earthquake Maker” would be a prime contender for an explosive Thunderbirds Are Go! episode.

Plus, wouldn’t you give an arm and a leg to see the new CGI Thunderbirds 1 and 2 having to make a crash landing after being attacked by an engulfing whirlwind?
