![]() I still wanted to read those Alan Moore stories! Finally, in 1995, Marvel released a Captain Britain mini-series (somewhat deceptively titled X-Men Archives: Captain Britain) which featured the stories immediately predating those contained in the tpb, drawn by Alan Davis and written by Dave Thorpe and… Alan Moore! I was familiar with earlier appearances of Captain Britain in his original costume (from Marvel Team-Up #65-66 among others) as well as more recent appearances (such as New Mutants Annual #2, X-Men Annual #11 and Captain America #305-306), but I was interested in the significance of his sartorial shift. These stories were very good, and although they were drawn by Alan Davis, they had been written by Jamie Delano. A year later, the popularity of the Excalibur ongoing series led to the release of a trade paperback collection of the last 17 installments of Captain Britain’s UK series. In 1987, Chris Claremont and Alan Davis collaborated on Excalibur Special Edition and I again wanted to read those Moore/Davis Captain Britain stories. ![]() New Mutants Annual #2 X-Men Annual #11 Captain America #305-306 The Knights of Pendragon #1-18 Captain Britain and MI13 Shortly after I discovered the work of Alan Moore I learned that he had written Captain Britain for Marvel UK and I immediately wanted to read those stories. ![]() Captain Britain Weekly #1-39 Super Spider-Man and Captain Britain #231-253 Hulk Comic #1, 3-30, 42-55, 57-63 Marvel Super-Heroes #377-388 The Daredevils #1-11 The Mighty World of Marvel #7-16 Captain Britain #1-14. ![]()
