Crimson Movie Update

Mister Crimson in a movie part 2 - back in March I mentioned how filmmaker Ken Cosentino had contacted me about a superhero movie he was making - which (at the time) coincidentally featured a character named Mister Crimson. Well, today I'm happy to present some photos from the movies set with a glimpse of some of the crew of the movies as well. (click pictures to see full size)



Front row from L to R: Gus Posey, who plays the main villain, corrupt businessman Boyd Emerson. To his right is Rob Thong, Back row, L to R, James Ventry, Ken Cosentino, Gary Marino, Matthew Catanese and Don Freeman.

Here is Walter's room - the man obsessed Crimson, the movies title character.



The title character has had a name change (from Mister Crimson to Crimson) because we all thought it might be a little less legally complicated, but there are some neat Mister Crimson Easter Eggs in the movie.



Among the scattered items in the room, you will see some of the image's of Seth Sherwood's and Diego Tripodi's Mister Crimson, a nice tip of the hat courtesy of Ken.





Thank you Ken for sharing the pictures! Please keep us updated!

Mister Crimson - The Movie?

A few months ago, I was contacted by Ken Cosentino, a filmmaker in New York. Ken and his film crew were gearing up to produce a movie for Sundance 2011, but they ran into a little snag.

The main character in their movie was called Mister Crimson.


Ken contacted me, and asked if it would be okay to use the name in the movie. My initial reaction was one of caution, but and after various emails back and forth with Seth and Diego, it was decided that real no harm would be done by Ken's group using the name in the film, and if anything, the two properties would most likely help each other.

However, in the meantime, Ken and company decided to rename their main character Crimson, so as to make things easier all the way around.

Below are some photos and art from what *could* have been a Mister Crimson movie!

I'll present more updates and images as the movie progresses.

The Curtain Closes on Mister Crimson

Today is a bittersweet day, as we present the conclusion of the Mister Crimson saga with 3 final screens. I would like to thank Seth and Diego for the hard work on this series. When I first saw it on Zuda, I knew it had amazing potential, and I'm glad that they were kind enough to let Flashback Universe be the place where they could complete the story.

Mister Crimson Hostess Ad

Like a lot of comic fans, I love looking at the old Hostess Ads that used to appear in Marvel and DC comics back in the 80s. Well, while digging through some *back issues* of Mister Crimson, I saw this classic Mister Crimson Hostess Ad


Note for our friends in our countries: This is not a real ad...please don't email me about back issues.

Hey Kids! It's Mister Crimson!

While we wait for the Mister Crimson team to put on the finishing touches to some new installments, I thought I would share these cool looking character sketches Diego did.

He was working on a project for children and decided to try the same style on Mister Crimson.

To the right you can click and see the full sized version of this stylized Mister Crimson. Below is Ace in the same style.
