Where it all began.

Captain Britain and MI13 will be ending its run in July; sad, but, given the sales, not unexpected.

Since I've recently been in a reposting mood, here are a couple of my favourite scenes from over the series that got lost when the original scans_daily went down.

The first comes from #4, the end of the first arc, after the Skrulls have been defeated and England is saved.





Love that scene.  When Faiza was first introduced there was plenty of speculation about what sort of powers she'd end up.  One of the most common thoughts was that she'd get Excalibur, but Cornell threw the audience off by giving her her body-control powers in #2 and having Captain Britain use the sword to defeat the main villains.

Less cheerily, the intro of the final arc's main menace in #10:




She'd have been better served by reading a bit more Stoker, and less Rice and Meyer.

My favorite interpretation of Dracula has to be the one from Hellsing. Hirano made Dracula (or Alucard as in the series) a very complex and intriguing character and I loved the way tied Dracula and Vlad the Impaler. I like the idea of Dracula with a top hat and sun glasses battling other vampires and nazi's.
