"Betsy Braddock: Captain Britain" Seemingly Cancelled; Fall of X Launches in August

The solicitations for July have been released and, unsurprisingly, "Betsy Braddock: Captain Britain" is missing. This shouldn't come as a shock to anyone at this point, given the abysmal sales and lack of reader interest. This direction and particular writer had already failed in the second relaunch, so obviously a third relaunch of the same story would have the same embarassing outcome.

Now, "Fall of X" is an upcoming relaunch of the X-Men line in August 2023. As far as we know, Betsy is not part of the roster of any of the new books. We'll keep an eye out for the next announcements and hope that she makes some appearance until we have more concrete news.


X-Men: Following the Hellfire Gala, the title will see a cast shakeup with new additions such as the winner of this year’s X-Men fan vote and Shadowkat.

Iceman: As the X-Men recover from a brutal defeat, one member will strike out on their own as Earth’s new protector!

Children of the Vault: Former enemies become brother-in-arms as Cable and Bishop team-up to fight this crucial war against the Children of the Vault all on their own!

Immortal X-Men: Witness the X-Men’s founder at his lowest. Xavier had a dream. Now he has nothing. He fell. He fell furthest.

 

X-Men Red: As the Brotherhood reels from the cataclysmic events of the Hellfire Gala, Genesis takes advantage of the chaos — and declares war!

Alpha Flight: In the ensuing chaos, a beloved Marvel Super Hero team rises once more! Alpha Flight will reassemble to navigate the dark times that have befallen mutantkind.

Dark X-Men: As the X-Men struggle to pull themselves together after their shattering defeat, Madelyne Pryor takes charge with her own twisted team in Dark X-Men!

Uncanny Avengers: Innocent people and world leaders are dead after simultaneous attacks on the U.S. and Krakoan governments, and that means one thing: it's time for a new squad of Avengers.


X-Force: New team leader Colossus is on the frontlines with the squad…but where he leads them, you will never expect!

Realm of X: This new age won’t be limited to Earth, as a small band of mutantkind’s fiercest warriors are sent on a mystical mission across the Ten Realms in Realm of X!

Wolverine: The dire circumstances of Fall of X send Logan on the run and into a collison course with Ghost Rider!

Uncanny Spider-Man: As the X-Men are crushed under the weight of this new age, one among them will "BAMF" his way into bright Super Hero stardom! Kurt Wagner is the Uncanny Spider-Man!

This is like back before KoX was announced and we were excited thinking someone else would finally get Betsy

The solicit says that Charles Xavier will fall the furthest. From my vantage point, I’d argue that it’s actually Elizabeth Braddock.

Anyone surprised? Anyone with two functioning brain cells knew this comic was going to fail. We've been pointing out everything wrong with TH's writing and her portrayal of Betsy since Excalibur four years ago. But all our feedback fell on deaf ears. The result is here: A completely niche comic that's a sales flop, written only to please the 10 people on the Cerebrocast Discord.

Disgust for what they've done to Betsy. Cebullshki and White are terrible people. Revanche ripped Betsy empty flashing all over places and their double standard is killing me.
Kitty is OK using ninja stuff scott free tho Betsy is banned from using any martials. She ain't allowed to use her butterfly she once had unique about her.

The editors are horrid and let's not forget that Cerebro cast fucker. He has major influence over the xtitles. The entire xoffice needs to be fired and start fresh. White and Cebulski have been around way too long and have always given lazy fat ass vibes

I just hope TH has the decency to have Betsy return the Captain Britain mantle to Brian at the end of her run. Betsy is not Captain Britain, she's the real Psylocke for heaven's sake!

randybear said...

Can't stand seeing people claim that PSYLOCKE is Kwannon's rightful identity

Mixia said...

Yes, it's complete nonsense!

Axel Alonso loved the comics and his time was better. Did his best to make Ike's tall order to replace mutants with inhumans a good story. The two beer barrels are worth a rats @ss with their crackoa and mantle swaps shtick. Nightcrawler as Spidey gimme a break.

Kiki M. Ishola said...

They never learn. Did it to Carol made her Captain Marvel and has the most cancelations in comic history about nine to ten so far. Betsy losing Psylocke and given the CB will bury her six feet under.

Mixia said...

Absolutely! The past 4 years have been a total disaster for Psylocke.

/completely ignoring all the other 5-issue run comics.
