Marvel has a new Captain Britain (Excalibur # 1)

With the release of Excalibur # 1 by Tini Howard and Marcus To, we end the issue with the introduction of a new Captain Britain for the modern time.

So in this story, we find out that a Krakoa gateway had sprouted in the scrying pool of Morgan Le Fay in Otherworld and Camelot.

She’s angry that these weeds have grown in her kingdom and has ordered finding the mutants or witchbreed.

With the return of the crazy Jamie Braddock in Krakoa just after Psylocke returns to the mutants, Betsy returns to the Braddock Academy to pick up her brother. Ubfortunately for her, she gets drawn to the summons her brother got from Otherworld.

In Camelot, Le Fay ambushes the twins. Brian gets powered by dark magic while Psylocke is sent to her death. In the last minute, Brian stops himself from killing Betsy, gives her the Captain Britain amulet and sends her back to Krakoa.

Meanwhile in Krakoa, Apocalypse and his new team deal with the effects of breaking the Otherworld gateway, especially after Rogue gets turned into a living bouquet.

We find out that the new Captain Britain has become Elisabeth Braddock aka Psylocke. She’s even decked out with new Captain Britain gear, definitely makes sense of her use of sword and shield ever since she got back her original body.
