    Great to hear about Death's Head's inclusion in next year's Iron Man 2020 event.

    No idea what degree of expose he'll get, but I'm always pleased to see him being present.

    I was hoping, when I heard that there would be a fuss made of 2020, that Death's Head would get some airtime, being a character who spent at least some time in 2020!

    Nrama: So to build on that, Tini, Betsy's taking over the Captain Britain mantle with Excalibur and it's finally happening in main continuity. What's the throughline you found for it to be a legitimate progression for the Betsy Braddock we first met in those old Captain Britain UK stories?

    Howard: I think the Braddocks are an awesome family. I have really built a lot of the story around the Braddocks as a unit.

    So it's not just the Betsy show, we're not ignoring who Brian is and who Brian has been and some other members of the Braddock family. In a real way, the Braddocks are like the Starks of this story. They're a family unit and we'll see them and follow them. And that's part of the story. It is not the story of shoving Brian Braddock in a drawer, getting Betsy the amulet, and putting them on stage. It is the story of a family, some of whom are mutant and some of whom are not, during a time of mutant ascension. And I think people will be really pleased. This is a story that elevates and celebrates the entire Braddock family.

    The Captain Britain mythos, themes and the long history of Excalibur as a book of magic and light and love.

    Sounds a lot better than I'd feared, though I'll guess I'll have to see how it plays out.

    All things considered, a pleasant surprise.

    Panini have apparently withdrawn from the annuals market, so the Marvel Heroes and Spider-Man Annuals are cancelled.

    This year, inspired by a poster here from Halloweens past, I carved the Fury as my jack-o'-lantern:

    So.... Excalibur #1 thoughts?

    I think it's meh so far. Kinda annoys me that the author doesn't really have a grasp of the Captain Britain/Otherworld/Marvel UK side of things and is just telling whatever story she feels like(first impressions count after all).

    I've not read it yet, but you don't fill me with optimism.

    I really don't expect for Brian to be much of a hero in the upcoming arc, or for any of this to be positive for him.

    Well I didn't want to do that

    I was reading through it and having my very own Han Solo moment "that's not how the force works". After Remender I've gotten used to new writers just doing whatever they want with a property, so I'm not too mad.

    Yeah. Two tropes come to mind. At the moment, he's Brainwashed and Crazy, and when he's freed, he'll be Brought Down To Normal, since Betsy taking the amulet means he'll now be depowered.
