Anyone else a fan of the good Captain? I suspect so, as his name's come up a few times lately. And they've recently released a huge, glorious hardback collected edition of most of his finest (and a few of his not so finest) stories from the early eighties-everything from the 'new look' Captain Britain's debut in Marvel Superheroes #377 right through to his first few appearances in the US Captain America and X-Men titles, a feast of classic Alan Moore/Alan Davis (and Dave Thorpe and Jamie Delano and Chris Claremont and various other people) action! But when are they going to finally reprint Steve Parkhouse and John Stokes's classic Black Knight/Captain Britain epic from Hulk Comic in full, that's what I want to know?

Just found this-a photo taken at our street's Queen's Silver Jubilee street party in 1977! The kid on the end is me-dressed, of course, as Captain Britain. The woolly hat was intended to emulate CB's blond hair, yours truly being unfortunately dark...

Good stuff, is that the mask from #1? And who are the two sinister looking guys in black to your immediate right?

It is indeed-and the rest of the costume which you had to send off for! Long gone now, sadly...

Those two villains were James Viger and David Drinkwater from Stembridge Rd. My arch foes!

I believe it's now supposed to be later this month. Which is a far cry from November 2009, the original publication date. Still, at least we already have about a third of the Black Knight strip-and it's only taken thirty years to get it reprinted! Welcome by the way, Drunkenmaster-nice to see you here!

Just in case anyone's interested: starting next issue, on sale in four weeks time, Paul Cornell's Captain Britain & MI13 series is being reprinted in the pages of Panini's Mighty World of Marvel anthology. A quality series that I'd recommend to anyone (Paul, of course, also writes for Doctor Who, and has arguably scripted the best non Steven Moffat written episodes of the revived series).

...aaaand it's here! The Siege of Camelot, 258 pages of action with Britain's foremost costumed champion and his various associates, concluding the epic Black Knight/Captain Britain saga from the pages of Hulk Comic #42-63 (the first time this material has ever been reprinted) plus all of Dave Thorpe's CB strips from Marvel Superheroes, all of Alan Moore's strips from Marvel Superheroes and The daredevils (presumably the later stuff from Mighty World of Marvel will be in the final volume) and even the text pieces from the Captain britain summer special and Moore's 'Short History of Britain' from Marvel Superheroes #389! Fascinating stuff, some lovely artwork from John Stokes, Alan Davis and Paul Neary, and even a couple of rather fascinating intro pieces by Steve Parkhouse and Dave Thorpe, the latter finally explaining why he left the strip in a fairly uncompromising manner. Highly recommended, even if (for some unfathomable reason) they have elected to print the Thorpe strips in the original black & white while printing the Alan Moore stuff in colour (why? All of it has been previously colourised in various reprint editions!). Some top notch storytelling, here...

It's a good opportunity for Paul, but as you say, rather disappointing for those of us who hoped to see more of him on the British heroes. Still, I think there are plans afoot for the Captain elsewhere, so we'll see how they turn out...

He was virtually unknown in his original incarnation but got a bit of a boost when Chris claremont brought him into the X-Men family in the mid eighties, and since then he's been fairly prominent on and off. Paul Cornell's series was a bit of a sleeper hit, and of course he's now joining the Avengers (Cap, not Paul Cornell) which can only raise his profile further.

Sales were pretty good over here, but in the US it was more of a 'critical success'. Sadly, that isn't good enough...

The version in the first Alan Davis costume they put out years ago as part of their Modern Age collection also had both the Star Sceptre and the Quarterstaff, for some reason. I never could work out why. He also came accompanied by Lockheed the dragon...

That one's actually quite sought after, now. possibly less because of any popularity CB might have than because if you don't have it, your Giant Man is permanently legless. Which makes a change from his usual state of being permanently depressed.

I'm torn. I am a CB completist, but I have a pathological aversion to anything titled 'X-Force'. I still have nightmares about that nitwit Liefeld's atrocious grasp of anatomy. Argh, those twisted, disproportionate limbs...

Mine arrived the other day. A brief cameo by CB on a couple of pages.
Didn't think much of the rest of the comic, although perhaps it's unfair to judge it given that they are in the middle of a storyline.

Ah, that I might pass on, then.
Though strictly speaking, in comics terms a cameo is usually restricted to one page-any more than that is a guest appearance, according to the old Marvel and DC index series'...

Yes, I know I'm a pedant.

Just picked up Marvel Heroes #34. They're going out in style, aren't they? Not only does Captain Britain appear in this two parter, it also marks the long awaited (well, by me anyway) return of Assassin-8, the cyborg mercenary originally created for Marvel UK's 'Spider-Man in Britain' storyline back in the early eighties! Now there's a character I never expected to see again...
