☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Judgement Day," Captain Britain is thrust into a high-stakes trial on another plane, summoned before the enigmatic Saturnyne by the Special Executive. Written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Alan Davis, this pivotal issue sees Captain Britain grapple with a painful past as he confronts the once-abandoning ruler now standing condemned—only to uncover a deeper conspiracy when he learns her judge is her own successor, with everything to gain from her downfall. The cover by Alan Davis captures the tension of this cosmic courtroom drama.
In "Judgement Day," Captain Britain is dragged before an extra-dimensional tribunal by the Special Executive, forced to confront Saturnyne—once his betrayer, now a condemned prisoner. Though reluctant to defend her, he’s shaken by her plight and grows uneasy when he learns her judge is also her successor, with everything to gain from her conviction. The fate of Earth-238 hangs in the balance as Mandragon’s destruction looms and the Fury escapes.
Linda McQuillan, once Captain U.K. of Earth-238, grapples with haunting memories of her fallen friends—Andy, Rick, Tom Rosetta, and the others—while Captain Britain faces a brutal kangaroo court on Saturnyne’s behalf. As the trial spirals, the weight of Earth-238’s tragedy pushes Cap to break free, igniting a clash that echoes the violence of a world lost.
In "Arrivals," Captain Britain leads a desperate flight to Earth as chaos erupts around them, with the Fury hunting down those it deems unworthy. At Braddock Manor, the survivors—including Captain Britain, Luna, and the Special Executive—brace for an unknown threat, while Linda arrives with a chilling warning of impending genocide. Mrs. McGeary’s fate looms as the stakes rise in a story where arrival is not salvation, but the beginning of a reckoning.
