History
Captaine Bretland from Earth-904 was a member of the reformed Captain Britain Corps,[1] reborn after Omniversal Majestrix Opal Luna Saturnyne performed a rite of casting a love spell to restore the heart's true protector.[2] The renewed Corps was summoned to the Starlight Citadel which was besieged by daemons from Amenth and helped hold the line along with the X-Men.[1]
As part of the Corps, she was seen during the appeal to Lady Saturnyne regarding the fate of Captain Britain Prime of Earth-616[3] and attended the trial of the False Captain Britain Corps created by Monarch. During the trial, the forces of Merlyn and Arthur attacked the Starlight Citadel, sparkling a war over control of Otherworld.[4] Captain Bretland fought with the Corps to protect Lady Saturnyne, but they eventually failed and had to retreat from the Citadel.[5] Over the next months, they took refuge at the Lavender Keep in the Floating Kingdom of Roma Regina. Fulfulling their leader's purpose of protecting Mutants from Earth-616 still trapped in Otherworld, Captain Bretland rescued the Jersey Devil from the Furies and delivered him to the Lavender Keep.[6]Notes
