If anything I'm kind of surprised they took so long to finally write him in.

Eh. The character is popular and like 20 years old already. Also a big part of World War Hulk(s) story that is supposed to be coming.

What I'm saying is they introduced his mother in a fairly significant background role in one of the biggest MCU movies but that was almost 10 years ago now. I would have expected them to introduce him sooner, even if only a pre-gamma version of him, otherwise why use Helen Cho as anything more than a quick cameo?

Looks like Cavill's stock in MCU finally on the rise. After his cameo as the Cavillrine, looks like he's finally gonna get set up as Captain Britain.

Captain Britain is way more retarded than Captain America, not sure they can pull it off like they did with Captain America.

There's not even a strong "British" identity in most of the country anyway, I don't identify as British at all, I'm English. So who is this for?

Because Captain Britain isn't just a copy of Captain America. Completely different power sets and origins. Actually Captain Britain is way more interesting in that respect. He's not portrayed the same as Captain America is. Captain America is portrayed as the paragon of being an American. Captain Britain is just a superhero that protects his country when needed. That stems from what you said about "British" identity. They don't have the same sense of nationalism Americans do.

You live in a choggy enclave, no wonder you don't see the British Identity.

This is a great question.

A little searching suggests your example is the earliest one.

Can anyone think of an earlier example?
its complicated.

Eartha kitt Catwoman. so, Catwoman is the first.
Green lanterns. hal was 1959. guy was 1968. John was 1971. all three replacements for Alan scott.

nick fury gets a nod for the direct replacement. then Flash and wally west, and spiderman, and so on.

no way they can. Cavill being Captain Britain would be a curse yet again.

The same Captain Britain who is a z-lister that is out shown by his sister, fucking PYSLOCKE.
The same Captain Britain who is replaced in comics by a Muslim women with Excalibur?
The same Captain Britain who is replaced in comics by a different women. (kelsey kirland)
The same Captain Britain, who then yet again replaced by the current in comics Captain Britain his sister pyslocke?

yeah, Im sure his story in the mcu will be totally respectful, and not immediately setting up him getting replaced by one of these women.
