From the preview we saw:
Gambit saying that he’ll help Rogue once he finishes helping Betsy
Gambit dealing with the crowd of ‘Keep Britain Human’ and Jubilee/Rictor come to help him
They usually are better at handling mobs. I don’t know why they lost their patience with this crowd and used their powers.
Betsy comes out. The crowd shenanigans stops. She says that they are now recognized as Excalibur by the Queen.
The Queen acknowledges that Otherworld is other worldly so Captain Britain can protect Krakoa and the UK.
The world now knows there is a mutant Captain Britain. No one asks about Brian.
We know what’s up with him though. He the Black Knight now.
Betsy has to go talk to Coven Akkaba at the request of the Queen.
Rictor and Gambit go on a side mission for Apocalypse to get the stones. That we find out are imbued with witch breed energy or something.
They go down into the earth and steal the druid stones.
They engage with the druids a bit but they recognize Rictor as one of their own and give him the real stones. They are basically like Earth benders, right?
Betsy goes to meet Coven Akkaba which makes no sense because didnt they destroy her family Lighthouse and try to kill her already. The meeting is basically a distraction. The Coven is playing smart. They are being manipulative.
Wild creatures from Otherworld are coming to attack the Earth realm because of dragon fire that created a portal to Earth. Was this from the Shogo Dragon?
This is a test for Betsy Braddock. Since she didnt pick the amulet or the sword.
It was given to her by Brian.
Oh Betsy all of a sudden is cool with being Captain Britain.
She just accepts the role. No introspection. No nothing.
She’s just fine with it now.
Maybe we’ll get something more next issue.
Jubilee went to Braddock Manor. Meggan is worried since Brian hasn’t been home and protestors have been harassing the academy. She doesn’t tell Meggan about Brian.
Jamie Braddock makes an appearance. He’s a sassy dick and Jubes punches him.
Cut to Apocalypse touching the glass flower coffee Rogue is in
ROGUE WAKES UP.
Apocalypse obviously has his own motives.
YAY.
Who know’s what I left out. But thats the gist of it.
I’m here for Betsy. This issue is not bad but its not great.
A slip in To’s art in my opinion.
I’ll have to read it again. I’m kind of meh to this series now when I used to be excited about it.
Hopefully some of your perspectives on this issue make me like this more.
