The news for SECRET WARS isn't done yet! This time, there's a two-part limited series coming to SECRET WARS called CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND THE MIGHTY DEFENDERS written by Al Ewing and drawn by Alan Davis.
Here's the description for the upcoming book, from an interview with Blastr:
- Welcome to Battleworld - where, in what's left of Mondo-City One, Boss Cage is the law!
- When the fascist futuropolis annexes neighboring Yinsen City, who'll stand up for Ho Yinsen's dream of universal peace?
- If you liked the Mighty Avengers -- you'll love the Mighty Defenders!
During the interview, it's revealed that Faiza Hussain will be taking the role of Captain Britain once again and teaming up with White Tiger, Kid Rescue, Hobie Brown, and She-Hulk.
Ewing says that the book takes place on the border of two locations: Mondo City, where Boss Cage hangs out and Yinsen City, from IRON MAN: FATAL FRONTIER.
Ewing settled on a using smaller team made up of characters he really liked. The world these characters inhabits does touch on Age of Ultron, from when Hussain became Captain Britain, but also Ewing picked Mondo City because he's a huge Judge Dredd fan and worked on the strip before. Mondo City touches on a lot of Dredd elements.
