Excalibur #22 Review/Spoilers - Treasures of Britain

[Master of Sound]

Never ever heard of S.T.R.I.K.E before. Can someone give some history lesson?

[JB]

yea its not like with earth where mutants are born and live there, making there own nation or mars where they terraformed a uninhabited world to live on, this is a place where people already live and mutants have invaded and taken over 2 separate kingdoms. sure with avalon they took it from le fay who was obviously bad but they just gave to jaime and he seems to be creating problems as well.

Otherworld is a hot mess so it kinda fits though. LOL!

Alan Moore run. Team that betsy was a part of before her whole X-men stint. Kinda was British Psy-Op team.

In a nutshell S.T.R.I.K.E. was kind of the UK's counterpart to SHIELD. They debuted in Captain Britain books and there was a PSI-Division but they were all killed by Slaymaster except Betsy.

Truth! Merlin has a right to defend himself in this case, especially since it seems like his throne was taken in a shady way. They broke into his castle as well. Whether it is to free people or not it's still invading his home.

What's the point of Merlin having Arthur?

Like Morgan Le Fay's entire rampage was cause Arthur was gone... and Merlin just has him in a cage for... reasons?

Mutants control 3 of the kingdoms (Jaspers), but only one had all life murdered by mutants/mutant-commanded demon horde

And both the Krakoans and Arraki crack jokes about it

[Lady Midnight]

The death of Tom. Betsy is gonna be over the moon to see him and the others!

YES!!! This rocks!

[JB]

YES!!! This rocks!

I'm so excited about this. Tini reached into the archives and fans of a certain age rejoiced!

could be part of a plan to take back control from saturnyne. he has manipulated brian and excalibur in the past to get what he wants.

I’m assuming a reference to medieval medicine?

CerebroCast does a great breakdown on the members of STRIKE and that data page (the short version is it's based on alchemy) on twitter here: https://twitter.com/CerebroCast/stat...58669369991168

Was there any follow up on the Rictor and Shatterstar conversation from the end of the last issue?

[CGAR]

I'm intrigued. Im no longer picking this up. Can anyone tell me who the colorist for this issue is? Please and thank you.

Imagine if they made a STRIKE series on Disney Plus w Betsy in charge.

This review got me curious but TH has disappointed me quite a few times already.

Glad you all liked it though.

This four were part of the psy team with Psylocke. They were haunted by slaymaster. Kevin and Vicky were assesinated before Captain Britain reunites with her sister and save Alison and Tom too. Tom was the boyfriend of Betsy, then all the crazy/good jim jaspers happens and Tom was killed too. Psylocke and Alison survive. Last time we saw Alison was before Mojo kidnaped Betsy.
I always been asking what happened to Alison, she was super powerful telepath and fragile albino girl. She was the one that could see that Meggan was a metamorph.

I highly recommend that run. Alan moore + Alan davis a lot of stuff of saturnyne, Psylocke meggan…
