''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'' is a 2015 Creator/MarvelComics limited series written by Creator/AlEwing with art by Alan Davis.
The series is part of the ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'' event, set at a time when reality has been remade and the only remaining planet is Battleworld, a patchwork of different realms held together by the will of ComicBook/DoctorDoom.

!!''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'' provides examples of:
* AffirmativeActionLegacy: The ''Mighty Defenders'' book features Faiza Hussain as the new ComicBook/CaptainBritain.
* AsLethalAsItNeedsToBe: In ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'', where we find out that Faiza Hussain's version of Excalibur goes blunt against living tissue because Faiza is an ActualPacifist.
* BroughtDownToBadass: Partial example in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'', when She-Hulk is stripped of her rank and powers as the Thor of Yinsen City. She's still She-Hulk, though.
* CallBack:
** The alternate universe Faiza Hussain/Captain Britain featured in ''Mighty Defenders'' is the same one seen in ''ComicBook/AgeOfUltron'', according to WordOfGod. Additionally, Yinsen City comes from the alternate universe seen in Al Ewing's ''Iron Man: Fatal Frontier'' mini-series, while Mondo City comes from Jeff Parker's ''ComicBook/DarkAvengers'' series.
** Likewise, the Prowler in ''Mighty Defenders'' apparently somehow remembers his world's Spider-Man being killed by an Inheritor during ''Spider-Verse''.
* DivideAndConquer: Doom does this up to XanatosGambit levels in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'', where he pits Yinsen City against its warlike neighbor knowing that if they went to war, both would come out weakened and if they instead found a peaceful resolution (which they did), both sides would have their hands full maintaining such a difficult alliance.
* FiveTokenBand: The titular ''Captain Britain & the Mighty Defenders'' consist of: Captain Britain (Arab), Kid Rescue (Asian), White Tiger (Hispanic), Spider Hero (Black), and She-Hulk (Green, formerly Caucasian).
* ForWantOfANail: Yinsen City in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'' is from an alternate timeline where Tony Stark performed a HeroicSacrifice to allow Ho Yinsen to escape in the Iron Man armor, rather than vice versa. This trope itself is subtly {{Lampshaded}}.
-->'''Tony Stark''': I've done the math. Whatever happens, one of us will die here.
* IveHeardOfThatWhatIsIt: Thanks to Doom's brainwashing this happened in the ''Mighty Defenders'' series repeatedly. Like Spider Hero commenting that if he "had a spider-sense it'd be tingling" which She-Hulk apparently understood and acknowledged going on about things for some panels until she just asks what a spider-sense is, and Spider Hero admits that he doesn't know, but feels he should. And again later with Captain Britain and She-Hulk about what a "Britain" is.
* IdealHero: Captain Britain (Faiza Hussein) in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders''. She is completely driven to do the right thing, fearless in the face of danger and even torture, possesses a magic sword that always guides her toward the correct goal, avoids unnecessary violence and refuses to kill, can break herself out of captivity with little effort, and manages to turn enemies into allies by being the better person.
* LaserGuidedKarma: In ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'', when the forces of Mondo City invade Yinsen City, Boss Magnicote kills Baron Yinsen. Once the dust is settled, he is deemed to have acted outside the law, and "reassigned" to the Deadlands.
* PastExperienceNightmare: Many if not all of the Defenders and Captain Britain from ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'' have flashback dreams about their worlds before the event (some even dream of the ''Incursion'') despite Doom's brainwashing.
* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: Heavy on the idealism side in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders''. At the end, the idealistic side wins by having the nicer heroes talk the militaristic ones into a fragile peace. And this was accomplished with minimal casualties on the part of the nice guys.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: A rare GenderInvertedTrope in ''Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders'', which is made up of a female Captain Britain, female Kid Rescue, female White Tiger, She-Hulk, and Spider-Man aka Spider-Hero. After Baron Yinsen's death, he becomes the ''only'' male on the team.

Kid Rescue, the new baroness, is not happy to work with her father's killers, but she begrudgingly admits that this option is better than war.]]
