Excalibur #24 makes Betsy Braddock, the current Captain Britain, a ‘guest’ of the Otherworld vampire kingdom of Sevalith – whatever their blood-soaked hospitality is worth. In a new set of preview pages, Betsy conferences with the Countexes of Sevalith, the creepy, Nosferatu-esque vampire rulers of the Otherworld realm. The conversation turns to – what else? – blood, as Betsy tries to explain the concept of the mutant X-gene to the magically-minded vampires.
The encounter stems from the recent revelation that Mordred, the villainous son of King Arthur and Morgan le Fay, is actually more than just a sinister sorcerer, but actually likely a mutant – or a ‘Witchbreed,’ to use the parlance of Otherworld.
