#CaptainBritain #WhoIs #MCU
🐶 WOOF WOOF! It's time for your next instalment of Who Is, and after nobody asked for Judge Dredd, some of you actually wanted an episode on Captain Britain! As a British fan, I had to do this, and hope you learn something from it!
.
If you enjoy it, please give it a thumbs up, and subscribe if you're new. As well, I'm really trying to push forward with this channel and do bigger and better things, hopefully you guys already see it in the videos as they come out, but I want to take this even further. If you can, please share this wherever possible, as it always helps! Thanks again for the support, and stay Mad, Doggs! WOOF WOOF!
I love Captain Britain! Excalibur was the comic that got me started on the hobby. And I agree, we need the Paul Cornell series collected.
Ahh nice! Bet you're happy with the recent omnibus Evan! Hopefully the MI13 runs gets some love soon! Thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics wow dog u hve a hellava TH-cam page. And ur a real talk comics fan. Cheers homie from usa
I did like Captain Britain but my love is UnionJack
Well thanks, given that Henry Cavill just expressed interest in playing him, this video was helpful to know who the heck he is!
Now it's speculated he was in talks with Marvel with a MCU role.
Well it looks like he’s accepted the role for him
Dan chans you said it first!
A buddy of mine side mentioned captain Britain, told him I had no idea who that was.
Now we are here.
Good video.
Henry Cavill is now rumored to play Captain Britain in the MCU as of February 2024. The news dropped hours ago
i came here after i found out as well
I knew nothing about Captain Britain before this video, so this was very informative! Would love to see a video like this on Conan the Barbarian
Thank you mate! It's not everything about the character, which I know some don't like, but it's enough so that you can jump into his stories :) Conan is a great shout! There seems to be some hype for that already, so I'll give it a go Tim! :) thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
I love this guy.
I really would love to see a captain Britain movie
Many thanks for this, Marcus. The only thing I knew about Capt Britain was his role in Remender's X-Force omnibus. Currently, Capt Britain and Excalibur omnis are very expensive. I also really enjoy these Who Is episodes (especially Dredd), so keep them coming 👍🏼.
Enjoyed the video been a fan of Captain Britain for a long time. Each time Merlin revives Brian Braddock/Captain Britain has needed the suit or amulet less now his powers are based on his confidence a bit like Gladiator. Would like to see you do a more in depth video on Captain Britain, Meggan and the whole Braddock family. Please keep making good videos.
This was a great watch. I would love to see more vids like this.
Another great video, keep these coming!
Thanks Richard! I've got a few ideas for this series, but if there's anyone you wanna see, just give me a shout! Thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
It would be really cool if they would feature Captain Britain in one of the upcoming movies or in maybe an animated feature?
I hear he's going to join the MCU soon and will be played by Henry Cavill
Great video! Cap Britain is my second favourite hero... how about one on my fave: Union Jack!
Kindly add Subtitle captions on what ur saying in ur videos. Really enjoyed this btw... thank You.
I’d watch a caption Britain universe
I'm up for doing it :) hopefully it's worth the wait haha! Thanks for watching the video Diana! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
We need a movie
Great video Dogg! The only thing I remember Captain Britain from is the Rememder Uncanny X-Force stuff, and he's in it very minimally really. So this was really helpful. I'll definitely be picking up the reprint of the omni whenever that's available! I'm still waiting for my copy of Excalibur to show up.
It's moving away from your British theme a bit, but for a character that might be good to do for this series... I was thinking maybe Spawn. My thinking there is that I feel like he's one of those characters that everyone knows of because he looks cool (and maybe they've seen the old 90s film if they are old enough)... But maybe not a of people have much to go on beyond his image (no pun intended, honest :P) so a bit of a deeper look at his actual character might be welcome.
That's assuming there is much more to his character of course... I've not read much Spawn! But figured if he's been going strong for 300+ issues now, there must be some kind of character depth there!
Spawn is a really great suggestion mate! I could even review that movie too haha, or we could both watch it for a live stream! Sorry you haven't got Excalibur yet, where did you order from? :(
But thanks for watching this one mate, I love doing these but they don't seem to break through, but I'm gonna keep doing them 😂 WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics Haha I'd be well up for that! I can't think when the last time I saw that movie was but I loved it when I was younger. I imagine it might not have aged particularly well... But that just adds to the fun!
And I ordered my Excalibur omni from Amazon UK. I imagine they will cancel the order at some point like they did with my Absolute Swamp Thing. I'm not gonna be as gutted about this one though, I can be patient. I likely won't read it any time soon!
And I'm glad to hear you're not ready to give up on this video series just yet! Perhaps most people know the characters so don't bother checking it out... Whereas for the few of us that don't, these are extremely useful! Plus their value is more long term, their usefulness won't expire like it might with something more current like Whale Watch (which is extremely useful at the time but will become less useful the more time goes by... and that's not a knock against Whale Watch, you know we all love that one!)
I am extremely grateful that I found your channel. Very informative and I appreciate your presentation.
I would love to see a video of alternate versions of Captain Britain.
I play DC Universe Online and I have a Captain Britai character I play as so top marks mate.
Awesome video captain Britain is a really cool superhero I would love to see him in the MCU
The Knights of Pendragon
Maybe in the future, Wayne! Thanks for watching the video, mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
Nice video mate, the Marvel UK vid is a cool idea too.
Thanks Will! It's one I'm interested in doing too, and making it more of a voice over retrospective :) we'll see how it comes along :) thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
Thanks for the info!
Enjoyed this a lot, I liked your dry wit re Alan Moore, would have liked you to expand on his working relationship with Alan Davies (D.R & Quinch, et al).
One thing though, "Corps" is pronounced 'Core', not 'Corpse'!
i want him to be in a movie. Especially with the popularity of Multiverse stuff.
Would love a Marvel UK episode. Marvel UK was awesome - I got into 'proper comics' purely through the strip in Doctor Who Magazine (formerly Doctor Who Monthly/Doctor Who Weekly); but there were plenty of other excellent Marvel UK titles, such as Action Force, Transformers, Thundercats, Zoids (someone needs to reprint a collection of the Zoids strip), and so on. I particularly enjoyed when Doctor Who would (occasionally) cross over into other Marvel strips, such as when the 7th Doctor shrinks Death's Head (who'd previously been featured in Transformers) from Autobot-size to human-size, using the Master's Tissue Compression Eliminator weapon - and then ended up bouncing him back through time to the roof of The Baxter Building.
Marvel UK *technically* still exists, as part of Pannini, who continue to publish Doctor Who Magazine, as well as handle UK reprints of various Marvel properties.
May I suggest you do a video on Xcaliber now that you have me very interested.
Only criticism I have is a pronunciation that sometimes happens, and it happened here, unfortunately. "Corps" is not pronounced like corpse, aka a dead body. A "Corps" has silent P and S. It is a military formation, and rhymes with Core. The Green Lantern Core, aka Corps, or the United States Marine Corps. Like the marching chant that rhymes. One, Two, Three, Four. United States Marine Corps.
I Saumitra Gautam love Captain Britain.
WOOF WOOF!
Great video but I still have a question, why is he always chilling with the X-men.
Yeah, I could've gone into the X Men side more, he's technically part of that branch of the MCU, but tbf I'd hang with them if I could 😂 thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
I was going to agree and say, why wouldn't you be chilling with the X-Men if you had the option? But then again... Their mansion does seem to blow up every 5 minutes so... 🙄
I don’t want to spoil my reading by looking ahead thanks so much for your synopsis- years ago the omnibus was $400 and Alan Moore was the writer so as Moore is GOD in comics and talent I simply did not hesitate to purchase . I look forward to exploring his genius and the character- the market price is set high for a reason because dedicated collectors simply won’t part easily with thier Alan Moore wares :-)
Having to be in England in order to use his power is a huge weak spot. Like the British it's widely known for having an Empire that the sun never sets on yet their champion can't go past Derry
Far better than reading Marvel Universe books. Please do feature Deaths Head 2.
Great video. Please do a video on alternate universe captain Britain’s
Glad you liked it! I remembered you asking for this one haha! I'm gonna delve even deeper into it so the I can really make that video a good one! Thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics Sounds good. I look forward to watching that video 😊
I remember when CB first appeared... 😎
Good video, man. How about Knights of Pendragon next?
I do have a faint memory of having found once from the city library a graphic novel omnibus of Captain Britain, and it was a story line what I actually liked.
It had this looming threat of a godlike mutant to awaken and destroying the universe. In my opinion the best part of that storyline was at the end the epic battle between this godlike mutant and "an organic sentinel" (using loosely "sentinel" to describe the thing, since it was basically organic machine programmed to kill every mutant it encounters, for what it does by upgrading itself by growing new organs for what it needs to destroy it's target).
It's ironic that Captain Britain looks like a Canadian hockey goalie.
I enjoyed this video.
Loved the jaspers warp series. I'd love an Irish hero for my homeland. Tarmacadam man.
Gotta do my research now because of Henry Cavill.
I wanna see Jason Statham be Captain Britain vs Chris Evans Captain America
In the hulk weekly, after the spider-man team up cap teamed up with the black knight in a big story on “other world”, after that, Alan Moore took over😉👍
Captain Britain seems like a character with really cool and creative adventures, but who is honestly kind of boring in terms of his power set. Even his own sister is more well known because she's a ninja telepath with energy swords.
Isn’t Henry Cavill suppose to be him in an upcoming Marvel film?
A cup of Tea may help when pronouncing BriTain.
A female reboot?
I did not see that coming
I Saumitra Gautam forget England.
Please review excalibur.
I'm waiting see if they do a volume 2 so I've got a massive run to read, but it's definitely on the horizon :) thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics OK Thanks! Yeah I am just on the fence about the excalibur and there are many xmen and other stuff coming out but I don't wanna miss out on it so I am gonna wait to see your review first lol. I doubt it will sell out!
I Saumitra Gautam forgive England.
i'm currently playing lego marvel's avengers and usually really not into capeshit, but the lego games usually are great... anyway, just unlocked him and was like: dafuq's that? :D
thanks for clarifying 👍
No worries mate, glad it helped! Hope you enjoy the rest of your game too! 🐶
How about, Who Is Jack of Hearts?
So if his uniform is damaged; or is stripped off of him he loses his powers? Interesting
I love the who is? Series I’m British but never read any of captain Brit mostly due to the time period but Excalibur seems up my dark alley
As far as any other characters I think Conan is needed and I’d like to see one for the green lantern Corps
Conan is a great shout! And the GL and maybe the other lanterns too, make it like an 8 part series :) glad you like it though mate, it doesn't seem get much attention, but I enjoy doing it so I'm glad I'm not alone! Thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics the who is and were to start series I really enjoy from your channel I’d like a who is or were to start for Conan as it’s something I’ve been interested in for a while but am puzzled as how to dive in
Captain Britain doesn’t roll of the tongue as good as captain America, maybe kernel Britain?
can you do a video on his feats? or list some for me. im a comic account on instagram and i am planning on posting panels on a feat in the coming days.. ive only read one of his original runs and m13 but i need some feats!!
Came because of Disney what if.
I’m currently reading that original captain Britain run and it’s pretty rough. It mainly monster of the week type stuff except for the long story arc crossover with captain America which is the highlight so far. Also no mention of otherworld until the hulk mag issues. Come on what is captain Britain without otherworld.
I Saumitra Gautam block England.
Where’s your marvel uk video
And where is captain Russia, china , or India
He's cousin of Captain Sparrow, Captain Jackass and Captain Caveman
Omni coming soon ! Just announced!!!
Yeah boiiiiiiii! And it's expanded too! :D WOOF WOOF! 🐶
Who is John Constantine is some low hanging fruit for you.
So low it just smacked me on the head haha! That's a great shout though Joe! I need to get on that one :) thanks for watching the video mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
Great video, but it's pronounced core not corpse btw.
Union Jack
I might try to cover him in future! Or maybe just condense all UK heroes into one video! Thanks for watching the video, mate! WOOF WOOF! 🐶
Peggy Carter
Why does he have siblings who are mutants? and he not one himself?.
He was kinda forgotten for a while haha, and im not sure if it's been explained recently. I'm kinda new to this, but I'll know for future videos! Cheers for checking it out Sophia, WOOF WOOF! 🐶
@@MaddoggComics thanks 😊 for answering!.
@@sophiawilson8696 No worries, just catching up on comments haha! Hoping to do a Who Is Martian Manhunter soon! :)
Henry Cavill
I have to watch you on 0,75 speed, you sound a little drunk, but at least I can get what you are saying lol.
As an American viewer it would help me a lot if you spoke slower your accent makes it difficult to understand you at times.
Appreciate the feedback, but I'm just a quick talker, have been since a kid, its far easier to just watch on 0.75 speed or something :)
Wouldn’t it be Peggy Carter?
Ok lets make Captain Serbia🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
Captin Britain is Muslim now
Yeah, hopefully he doesn’t support the tories
Wow, so much bad research.
It will be another fail. Wtf direction is marvel going??
why talk so fast... ? extend the commentary by 5 minutes and give yourself time to breath... your information is alot easier for old and young alike to take in if werent being read like ur trying to sell us micro machines on a Saturday morning.
My style is quick. I can't change the way I speak unfortunately. For some reason as soon as I step in front of the camera, that's just my speed. Some people found it helpful putting it on 0.75 speed, but for me there's more than enough channels I have to watch on 1.5 speed that I'm comfortable with the way I speak :)
Blah blah blah blah….I didn’t hear a damn word you said hippity hoopla
Captain britain going around looting and lying and getting other people to fight his battles for him, that's his powers
