My Friend, a Walking and Talking British Encyclopedia

Comments Off

Mark loves everything British. You can ask him anything about Great Britain, its culture and its people. When he was young he was obsessed of the royal family and from there on he began studying on Great Britain. My friends and I often call him Captain Britain because he speaks in a British accent plus if one of us ever has problems that are related to the word Britain. He never fails to give us a headache after he explains it in a lengthy manner. One time, my dad started buying me comic books like Captain America. I immediately got hooked up to it and went to look forward for the next issues. There was this issue in Captain America where he allied himself with a super hero from Britain none other than Captain Britain himself. I never realized that Captain Britain was a comic book super hero at that time so I told Mark about it and guess what? He already knew about Captain Britain and he already began collecting Captain Britain comic books. He told me that the moment when we call him Captain Britain he began researching for a character of the same name. He also told me this that if there will be a movie of Captain Britain he would want no one other than ricky whittle to play his role. I asked him who the latter was. He simply answered Hes British.
