I’m halfway through the Captain Britain Omnibus. With over 1200 pages this is beefy comic so I though it best to break this one up a bit. Starting in 1976, Captain Britain follows young Brian Braddock who, after being left at death’s door by the villainous Reaver, is granted the choice to become the greatest hero that Britain has ever seen, Captain Britain! Rooted in the mythology of Britannia, Captain Britain isn’t simply a Captain America analogue. He’s offered his power by Merlyn himself and fights alongside supernatural elements. He’s a more uncertain, untested hero at this point in his career and more inclined to make mistakes. However he’s humbler and less bombastic than his American counterparts, which, in its way, says something of perceptions of British culture at the time. These early stories were released weekly and therefore follow a similar pattern; Brian Braddock on an adventure, Bad Guy shows up/Bad thing happens, Captain Britain leaps into action, Fails, Gets back Up, And finally beats the bad guy. These were fairly typical of weekly releases and by no means are they bad. They’re just not the most creative with what the comic book format can do. However they lay a lot of ground work for who the character would become and the people Captain Britain would work with. Originally written by Chris Claremont and drawn by Herb Trimpe, Captain Britain goes through many changes of Writer/Artist team, and like other characters some creative teams get him and others don’t. For example, the later issues in this period written by Jim Lawrence weren’t the best. Lawrence’s other work at the time was the James Bond comic adaptations and I realised that Captain Britain was acting in a cocky manner akin to Bond which simply didn’t fit the character well. Abrupt or weird changes in character are fairly regular with legacy characters in comics though and this a risk one can end up making when following a character across their career or reading them in Omnibuses. Captain Britain is a fun character and I’m looking forward to reading into the weirdness of the 80s! #bookstagram #comics #captainbritain #marvelcomics @marvel_uk https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2ocgHsPqg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Oh yeah #CaptainBritain! One of my faves! https://www.instagram.com/p/CovjBUyP5Ww/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Captain Britain from Marvel Comics. It occurred to me that I have never drawn Betsy Braddock as Captain Britain so I decided to draw her today. I love all the iterations of Betsy and this one is no exception. Next time I do some work for Upper Deck I will be sure to add Captain Britain :) . . . #captainbritain #elizabethbraddock #marvelcomica #marvel #xmen #asmr #artprocess #artprocessvideo #foryoupage #fyp #foryou #artsounds #arteza #everblendmarkers #kohinoor #rotring #rapdiograph #technicalpen #staedtler #leadholder @artezaofficial @staedtler @upperdeckent @rotringofficial @kohinoorusa https://www.instagram.com/p/CoD23l7PSnN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
