British Update: Festival of Britain/Mighty Marvel Firsts: Captain Britain 1st series inc 1st Cap & 1st Betsy Braddock
*Marvel UK: We’ve been trawling through the various series/appearances of Captain Britain in Marvel UK titles these past few weeks and this week we reach the grand finale, back where it all began with the first series of Captain Britain from 1976. As Smilin’ Stan himself wrote in the very first issue: ‘We present the mightiest, most mysterious man on Earth, the one and only Captain Britain!’ (Never one for undersell, ol’ Stan…). This selection includes early issues from #1 (alas, no gifts) and stars #8, the first appearance of Betsy Braddock, she who would become Psylocke of the X-Men. Interest in the Captain has never been higher, so your early attention is recommended.
