And introducing the very Old Colonial (in every sense of that phrase) Major Archibald Payne.
Named after a very real British soldier, Archibald Payne, born in 1894, and who died aged 19 at the Battle of the Somme in 1916 in the First World War. In a parallel dimension, he survived and prospered, it seems, rising to the very top! But va chance to catch up on the Captain Britain Omnibus…
And when The Jaspers Warp arrives, a mutant politician going mad and taking all of reality with him, so does another of its foot soldiers…
The Fury, created by James Jaspers from a world that was then destroyed back in the day before they called them incursions. Back one last time, even as a memory, even as a historical fragment, it somehow survives, and provides as serious a threat as ever… It killed Captain Britain. It killed the second James Jaspers. It never stops…
Captain Britain Vs The Fury. One last time. Until they make the film, at least…
