Of course, the coolest moments were reserved for Captain Britain himself. It’s great how Cornell used all of these characters, plus a gaggle of magical creatures and an army of invading shapeshifting aliens, in a tight adventure story with humor and a dash of British patriotism.Īlso great is new character Faiza who has such a wholesome, charming personality accompanied by an unsettling set of powers. Faiza Hussain and John the Skrull - a Skrull turncoat who spends most of his time using the form of John Lennon - get their time in the spotlight too. Older characters like Spitfire, Black Knight, and Pete Wisdom got to shine while newer ones like Dr. While the title character is Captain Britain, writer Paul Cornell didn’t skimp on the other characters. There’s nothing like an alien invasion to bring together a bunch of largely unrelated characters new and old. It was one of the few tie-in series that didn’t have strong ties to the main event book, but it held up storywise. The Captain Britain and MI13 series was launched as a tie-in to Marvel’s 2008 event Secret Invasion.
