History
The origins and past history of Captain Britain, is similar to that of his Earth-616 counterpart, however there are a number of facts that have come to light about his origins that are exclusive to Earth-9997.
Through research of the past, a combination of X-51, and Kyle Richmond, a number of facts about Captain Britain's origins had become known. Firstly of those is that the sword which would one day become Excalibur (famed weapon of King Arthur) was forged in the distant future from a star that was once Galactus. This sword would come into the possession of Prince Wayfinder, who would bring it to Earth's prehistoric past, and somehow through the generations it would come into the possession of King Arthur, and later Merlin the sorcerer.
It was also revealed that when Brian was choosing between the Amulet of Life and the Sword of Death, during the time he was chosen to be Captain Britain, he should have chosen both, a truth that would become evident much later in his life.
In present times, either during or prior to the mutation of the entire human race, Captain Britain and Meggan were married to each other, and they continued to fight in Excalibur. After the worlds mutation Excalibur fought against the Grey Gargoyle who turned all Brain's teammates into stone (except Nightcrawler who managed to escape), in a fit of rage, he took the Sword of Death (aka Excalibur the sword) and slew the Grey Gargoyle, not realizing that the Gargoyle himself was the only way he could change his friends back to normal.He would spend the convening years getting Grey Gargoyles from other realities to try and free his friends, but none could lift the curse.
Also during this time, Black Bolt was put in charge of raising the son of Black Bolt and Medusa of the Inhumans, he would raise the boy as if he were one of his own, and the boy would grow up to become the next Black Knight. Also during this time, the world -- unable to cope with having super-powers due to planet wide mutation -- would selected experienced super-heroes to be leaders of their home countries, Captain Britain would soon find himself becoming the King of England.
Either prior too, or during his reign, Britain's naval fleet became in charge of distributing Russia's wheat preserves to feed the rest of the world. King Britain would also come into possession of the Dragon Man android and use it as a steed, and Britain would biologically engineer an army of Union Jacks to protect the country. When Crusher Creel was destroyed by the Vision in Washington D.C. after he killed the Avengers, a part of Creel was given to King Britain as well.
Around the time that the Skull was slowly taking over the United States, Captain America came to Britain to recruit super-beings to help in his fight against the Skull. King Britain would commit himself and his troops to the fight and eventually the Skull was killed and his slaved freed.
King Britain would return home, and because Galactus destroyed the Celestial Embryo gestating in Earth's core, the planets poles shifted and over the next three years the United Kingdom would evolved into a tropical paradise. He would also open his home to Medusa and Luna of the Inhumans, and construct an army of Iron Men based on Tony Stark's Iron Avengers robots.
Later, when Captain Mar-Vel was reborn and on a quest to collect items of power, he came to King Britain to help obtain the Book of Vishanti and the Book of Darkhold, which were being held by Merlin in the Siege Perilous. Shortly afterwards his kingdom was attacked by the Tong of Creel, seeking to collect the piece of the Absorbing Man which has been in King Britain's possession for years. In spite of all their resources, they failed in stopping the Tong from getting what they sought.
Sometime afterwards, King Britain would propose to Medusa of the Inhumans to united the kingdoms of both humanity and the Inhumans. Soon after their wedding, their wedding night came to a dramatic end when Captain U.K. and a Grey Gargoyle from another reality managed to free the members of Excalibur trapped in stone (Captain UK and Gargoyle were really Mephisto in disguise) With Meggan's "resurrection" the validity and where King Britain's true feelings were then in question.
However, later when Mephisto came back with an army of Deviants to take Excalibur (the one thing other than Jude that could kill people in a world where Death had died) in a bid to take over the world, Meggan would sacrifice her life disguise as King Britain, giving the real King, Medusa, Black Knight and Ransak the Reject the time to defeat the Deviants and kill Mephisto.
Following Mephisto's death, King Britain's current activities are presently unknown.Attributes
