What shitty article, oh my God.

pls let fox have the rigths, pls let fox have the rights

What channel would it be on lads?

While Betsy is a mutant and Brian's associated with them a lot, there's very little reason to believe he would have been included in the X-Men deal. If he is, he most likely is a shared character like Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and presumably Alpha Flight (both Fox and Marvel movies have made references to them).
>>
>>81232009
>(both Fox and Marvel movies have made references to them)
Woah, what? When did they reference alpha flight. I'm curious because Alpha Flight is my favourite d-lister team
>>
>>81232055
Fox had files marked "Alpha Flight" on Stryker's computer in X2 and the old couple in X-Men Shits: Wolverine was based on the Hudsons.

There's been at least one reference to Department H in Agents of SHIELD on the Marvel side.
>>
>>81231856
hopefully not
>>
>>81232118
huh, interesting. I love Alpha Flight.

It helps that I'm canadian
>>
>>81232009
It would still require a lot of retcons, and frankly, no, it's enough that they butchered the twins

also, AoS sucks. DD might be good (don't like the character, and didn't watch it), but Captain Britain is more similar to AoS in tone and yadda yadda.

tl;dr fuck no

>>81231880

It looks like they did a 10 minute search on Wikipedia.

>>81232174
My favorite part of article is
>At one point he found himself battling Spiderman, but they later joined forces
Who the fuck didn't fight Spider-Man only to team-up later.
>>
>>81231856
we need a BBC Captain Britain TV series.
>>
>>81231882
Get fukt. It'd be Fan4stic all over again.

Excalibur was a Captain Britain comic with Nightcrawler & Kitty guest starring for sales, the tone was lifted directly from his comics immediately before the team. Point stands. The definitive Moore/Davis Cap wasn't "a British spy" by any stretch of the imagination.
>>81232508
A comic about magical lands, interdimensional demon lords and vampires on the moon. More in common with classic Cap & Excalibur than the Agents of Shield show.
>>
>>81232542
Exactly my point.
Doctor Who, only with more action and even more colorful clothes
>>
>>81232720
no, what is MI13, not the comic, but the team
and because you are slow, they are british mix of avengers and shield
>>
>>81232650
Captain Britain isn't Deadpool by a wide fucking margin. Fox have proven capable of that sort of tone, not so much when the source material is as fantastical as this. I'm also severely doubtful that the showrunners are diehard CapBrit fans who've been trying to get this off the ground for 11 years. Fuck I wouldn't expect the amount of dedication that made Deadpool good even if it WAS at Marvel.

>>81232968
which is why it won't happen

And even if the article read MI13 series instead of Captain Britain series, the comic is where they'd draw inspiration from.

They've read wiki about MI13, got hyped about the concept and that's it.
They know shit, they've read shit, and that understand shit.
