The Alan Moore/Jamie Delano/Alan Davis Captain Britian run is always going to be a favourite of mine. Mainly as it's one of the first books I read a whole run through and also it's Moores only extended work for Marvel. I wish they would reprint in in the OG B+W art rather than coloured.
Comic Books
A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.
Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.
There is only one rule:*
Comic Books is a no judgement zone.
You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.
If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.
* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(
I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

Is it possible to read on Marvel's unlimited online subscription? I've HEARD about Cap Britain but, being American, he's always been a fairly obscure "sword to Cap America's shield" if that makes sense?
They don't appear to have the Moore stuff unfortunately.
They have the OG silver age stuff https://share.marvel.com/sharing/series/drn:src:marvel:unison::prod:56496551-b346-4fdf-8e18-5f7690ca47c0

I guess Moore is hard to get to agree to re-releases. They did do an omnibus at one point and in the 90s it was reprinted as part of X-Men Archives. All the reprints are in colour unfortunately as the OG was B&W and better for it in my opinion.
