I'm collecting this title in trades and the wait is killing me. Leonard Kirk's art on the SI tie ins was gorgeous and so are the Vampire state covers....
I'm starting to get into and buy Captain Britain on a regular basis now, I only used to buy Excalbuir issues on the cheap now and again if i saw them in shops over the years, But it seems he's becoming really cool in the UK like a UK cult figure and worldwide now after years of obscurity.
He is an alternate evil version of Brian who chose the sword instead of the amulet. He leads the Captain Britain Corps now. I just thought they would put him in there too.
Cornell is getting pretty wild referencing past Marvel-UK titles, down to some pretty specific ones.
I'm sure Albion and the rest of CBC will pop-up at some point; I guess they just don't have much story-purpose being brought into either the last arc or this one.
I find it funny hows Dracs ego seems to be the result of an inferiority complex. Dooms the wrong way to look if you need reassurence of your superiority
....I actually wouldn't be surprised if he takes it to doom the last issues of the book. Have you been reading the story? Wisdom called him the leading military strategist of their time and he toyed with MI:13, it's really a great story.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: ...so basically Dracula won, the last issue had a nice tie-in to dark reign (Dracula's treaty with Doom bears fruit as the rest of the dark cabal, mainly Osborne and Loki (posing as Scarlet Witch), refuse Britain American aid.
the team is in ruins literally as Spitfire (Dracula successfully turns her to his side) Kills Faiza, and Black Knight and Wisdom as then taken out by the sheer mass of the vampire army. Captain Britain is knocked out of the country leaving Blade to flee to gather a resistance in the north.
currently this may be one of the best series on the market and is continually astonishing.
AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR the wait for the trade is sooooo difficult..... This is the third storyline from this comic and I don't think the trade for the second has come out yet..........
