Synopsis
It's Captain versus Captain as Brian and Albion clash. Excalibur, Lionheart and the remaining two members of Shadow-X battle the Shadow Captains but find their hardest struggle is in breaking Sage out of her Britannia persona. Nocturne and the Shadow-X Jean Grey find the device that was used to deprive England of its technological power. Jean gives her life as Brian destroys it, restoring electricity to England and breaking Albion's power. Lionheart is pardoned and reunites with her children. With the day saved and England restored, Excalibur takes time to celebrate their victory.
