Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Captain Britain Weekly (sometimes just referred to as Captain Britain) is an Anthology Comic published by the Marvel UK imprint of Marvel Comics. As well as reprints of older Marvel comics, it included their first new superhero series for the British market, the titular Captain Britain.Initially written by Chris Claremont (and later by Gary Friedrich) and illustrated by Herb Trimpe, the series stars Brian Braddock, a physics student who’s blessed with the power (and name) of Captain Britain after he’s caught in the middle of a villain’s attack on a nuclear power station.Despite the hero’s patriotic name, the series is far closer in tone to Spider-Man than Captain America. Brian maintains a secret identity, sometimes at the cost of his classmates’ mockery, and Captain Britain is distrusted by some of the British police.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The series is set in the same shared Marvel Universe as Marvel’s American titles, with guest appearances from Nick Fury and Captain America (and the Red Skull appearing as the villain of one arc).It’s also notable for introducing Brian’s sister Betsy, who later went on to play a far more prominent role as the superhero Psylocke, one of the X-Men.The first issue was released in October 1976. | |
