We’re breaking down every sub-message and reference of the Secret Avenger, Corporate Red in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. From the MCU movies to the Netflix shows. There will be more updates to come. In the meantime check out there secret sub-messages and references on how to find the Secret Avenger, Corporate Red, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Ant-man and the Wasp
The Play-House
During the Play-House scene during the maze there are red and green lights. This is referencing and sub-messaging Corporate Red and Corporate Green.
The Fonz
Once Pym and his daughter get out of the maze they are greeted by Louis. Pym’s daughter screams oh no its the Fonz. In The Forgotten Ranger, during Corporate Red’s introduction to The Council one of the Councilman turns the screen monitor on by banging against the wall. Corporate Red believes this Councilman is none other than the Fonz. But before realizing it is him Councilman Pope (ABC’s Scandal) stops him, who then tells the Fonz you still got it and the two pound.
Sonny sub-messages Corporate Red
During the first chat with Wasp, Sonny references three characters.
Sonny: You can forget nano tech (Tony Stark and CR), you can forget AI (Vision), forget crypto quanzy (CR/Next Gen Quantum). The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been delivering tons of cryptic messages of Corporate Red/Next Gen Quantum through sub-messages and references. During The Forgotten Ranger II, Corporate Red mantle is replaced full time by the Next Gen Quantum mantle. Since most in society have forgotten Corporate Red, the term crypto “quanzy” makes sense here. Also the creator of Corporate Red, Terrell Quentin Rogers, the term quanzy is a reference at Terrell’s middle name.
S.H.I.E.LD. Discredit reference
Fans learn in Ant-man and the Wasp that Corporate Red/Next Gen Quantum was not the first to be discredited from S.H.I.E.L.D. (and not the first to walkout). Foster reveals that Dr. Pym had S.H.I.E.L.D. discredit him. Few years before the release of Ant-man and the Wasp fans read in The Forgotten Ranger that Nick Fury orders that Corporate Red’s history with S.H.I.E.L.D. be removed, aka discredited.
Black Panther
King T’Challa’s assassination CR reference
During The Forgotten Ranger Princess Edea’s father is assassinated. Her mother later dies from drug overdose, which results in Edea becoming queen. Interestingly Black Panther becomes king after his father is assassinated during Captain America Civil War.
Red and Green dress
During the gambling scene with Mr. Corporate, Nakia and Okoye wear references to Corporate Red and Corporate Green/Next Gen Emerald.
The Forgotten Ranger Spin
When Killmonger takes the throne the famed spin from The Forgotten Ranger is referenced.
Mr. Corporate/Agent Ross
He wears a white shirt and red tie.
Infinity War
Ebony Maw references CR’s shh
During the attack on the Asgardian ship, Ebony Maw wraps up Thor in metal with his telepathic powers and then does the shh taunt. This taunt first seen back in the famed 2015 release of The Forgotten Ranger, when Corporate Red finds the Infinity Time Stone after taking down a black market meeting of a auction where the bidders were Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D When CR gets the time stones he turns to you the readers and does the shh taunt.
Twirling scene
When Hulk is being sent to earth the scene twirls on Manhattan. This twirling was also taking place during the introduction of the 2015 – present famed The Forgotten Ranger during the entering of his room when the scene twirls over Corporate Red while he is sleeping in bed.
Wong keeps Corporate Red’s promise
Wong made a oath that he and the Sanctorium would protect the Time Stone and this sworn is made reference during Infinity War.
Guardians of Galaxy arrival
During Infinity War the Guardians arrive to a universe that is red and blue. Colors seem familiar (CR and Thanos)
Gamora’s Weapon
Gamora’s weapon is in the colors of red and white
Stark and Strange not getting along/ Stark time altered?
During the lead up to Avengers Infinity War its known the fans worldwide that Corporate Red, Doctor Strange, and Stark are aware there’s a time glitch in the MCU. This was even made aware of in Infinity War without mentioning the glitch through conversation. Stark for example says Thanos has been in his head for six years. The ending of the Forgotten Ranger states seven years however had passed since the Chitauri InVasion. Spider-man Homecoming with the glitch 8 years later. Stark appears to have been effected by the time glitch when he says six years of Thanos in his head. Doctor Strange body language towards Spider-man also originates from The Forgotten Ranger. During the secret endings in The Forgotten Ranger few years and months leading to IW, CR tells Strange that Spider-man has been altered. CR had refer Stark to Spider-man, not Spider-boy and a reference to TQR/CR was even displayed in Spider-man’s cellphone during Homecoming, aka 317, confirmed by James Gunn. Strange even references CR even more when he states he won’t be hesitant to let Stark or Spider-man die for the safety of the universe.
Thanos knows timeline is wrong
During a scene in Infinity War Thanos states the MCU must be “corrected”
Strange and Thanos know the MCU must be destroyed
Many fans have been wondering and puzzled why Strange and Thanos were very calm in their conversation. Strange even goes on to tell Thanos “Our Will is Equal to Yours”. Here Strange is stating he agree with Thanos that the altered MCU must be destroyed.
Thanos Fire Blast
During a fighting scene Thanos absorbs fire and shoots it back. This is a reference of when Thanos absorbs fire during the IW/The Forgotten Ranger crossover battle scene in The Forgotten Ranger II against the Avengers, X-Men and Fantastic Four.
Thanos knows Stark through Corporate Red?
Thanos tells Stark that not only does he know him but he’s not the only one “cursed” with knowledge. A similar hero also “cursed” with knowledge is Corporate Red. His knowledge on the Council and CR was also aware Thanos was coming through Stark. How did Thanos know Stark without the Mind Stone? One theory is that Thanos who is half Skrull gained some of the knowledge from the Skrulls who once held the Time Stone during the events of The Forgotten Ranger. The Skrulls were in a Secret War with the World’s Security Council and S.H.I.E.L.D. starting from the WWII days in The Forgotten Ranger.
Change of Thanos Plan
Thanos states because of Stark only half of humanity will be destroyed. Originally all of humanity was going to be destroyed at Thanos snap, leaving CR as the lone survivor. There have been two theories from insiders stating it would’ve been CR as the lone surviving hero or CR of a parallel universe (Avengers 4 time travel) defeating Thanos.
Captain America vs Thanos CR reference
During the 2015 release of The Forgotten Ranger CR gets into a fist lock with Loki and almost manages to break grip before being taking down by Loki. This grip would be references during Captain America vs Thanos in IW.
Thanos snap references Queen Edea’s snap
During the famed The Forgotten Ranger Queen Edea would snap her fingers to make her hybrid monsters grow. This reference is not only referenced through Thanos snap but with the Time Stone lighting up which is the birth color (green) of TQR aka CR.
Nick Fury: Code Red
This edit was pretty obvious among fans as Nick Fury knew the day had finally arrived to bring Corporate Red to the MCU when he says contact control, “Code Red”. Throughout The Forgotten Ranger Nick Fury constantly made jokes about CR being “the hero” in the end of the world of the MCU.
Captain Marvel Trailers
Nick Fury eye, Skrull vs Kree War
The Skrulls play a major impact in Captain Marvel and there’s a Skrull working within S.H.I.E.L.D. This Skrull in S.H.I.E.L.D. was confirmed in The Forgotten Ranger long before the release of Captain Marvel and the cast. During The Forgotten Ranger the World’s Security Council were at war with the Skrull Empire from the 1940’s to the early 2000’s. The story also mentioned the Skrull vs Kree war. Nick Fury in The Forgotten Ranger also states on two occasions mentions about how he trusted a Skrull and in one of those scenes even stating it took out it’s eye.
Captain Marvel fighting in Space
Long before the trailers, in The Forgotten Ranger a young Corporate Red (before becoming the hero) with his grandfather hears explosions in the sky, but the two see no explosions. The scene then cuts to Captain Marvel flying in space fighting in a war in space involving the Skrull, Kree and S.H.I.E.L.D. This scene is reference and shown during the Captain Marvel recent trailer.
Thor Ragnarok
Hulk’s Room and Bed references Corporate Red’s and his Prehistoric Beast
Hulk’s room which is colored red and white sub-messaging Corporate Red, which Thor throws cheap pops at towards the audience telling Hulk to choose a color between the red and the white.
Hulk’s bed is in the form of bones of a prehistoric beast which appears to be a T-Rex. Now to many MCU fans this reference seems very familiar in the red and white room.
Corporate Red: We need prehistoric power now..
Corporate Red as Next Gen Quantum also defeated the Hulk twice during his days with S.H.I.E.L.D. as Next Gen Quantum in The Forgotten Ranger. So it would make sense for the Hulk’s room to reference Corporate Red.
Thor Ragnarok Logo
In the Thor Ragnarok logo Thanos blue is turning into Corporate Red and White. This was going to foreshadow the fallout of Avengers Infinity War of a David vs Goliath battle in which the Avengers failed and the little guy (CR) faces Thanos and defeats him. Sadly he was replaced by Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel. Many inside and outside of Disney and Marvel did not take this very well and this was felt even during the Los Angeles premier of Black Panther. The reason many say Kevin Feige did not look happy at the premier. FOX didn’t take the news well either and immediately pushed up Deadpool 2 during Avengers 4 wrap up to May 18th (according to several anonymous insiders the reason of no merger between Avengers, X-MEN and Fantastic Four). Knowing the anger of the fans worldwide and the anger of FOX, Disney and Marvel in a panic move pushed up Avengers Infinity War to April 27th. This did not stop Avengers Infinity War from falling in the box office as it was quickly defeated by both Deadpool 2 and Ocean’s 8. Recently its stated by insiders Netflix has taking action, cancelling all Marvel shows, with only Jessica Jones and Punisher remaining.
Spider-man Homecoming
Vulture: You can’t saw through that stuff. You have to use what they use.
This was a nod to the The Forgotten Ranger when Corporate Red gave the people of Brooklyn, along with law enforcement and military personal the Chitauri weapons during the Chitauri InVasion.
8 years later? or 7 Years Later?
During The Forgotten Avenger re-release last year it was stated that seven years have passed since the Chitauri InVasion. According to Spider-man Homecoming 8 years have passed. Doctor Strange glitch? The Forgotten Ranger/Avenger was re-released before Spider-man Homecoming.
Tony Stark Aunt May joke foreshadow in The Forgotten Avenger back in 2016
During multiple re-releases readers read about Corporate Red told Tony Stark it was wrong for him to mess with Peter’s aunt during a secret ending. In Spider-man Homecoming Tony in the beginning of the movie during Peter’s video feed asks aunt May what is she wearing? Something skippy he hopes which Peter doesn’t give a look he approves (Terrell/Corporate Red knew all along).
The Phone Call – Someone Will Call You – “T”
After Peter’s intro during the limousine between Tony and Peter, Stark says that Peter will get a phone call from “someone.” Peter replies call it a “T”. T as most people know these days is Terrell.
3:17 in Peter’s Phone
James Gunn
✔@JamesGunn
That’s why @jnwtts put that in the movie. That and it’s the day Jon lost his virginity.
TerrellQ.Rogers@TQR317Replying to @JamesGunn @jnwtts@JamesGunn @jnwtts 3:17 my birthday when Pete cellphone rings near end of the movie lol
Near the end of the movie Peter Parker receives a unknown phone call. At the time of the phone call the time of call is 3:17. This is important because 3:17 is the real life birthday of Terrell Quentin Rogers, creator and aka Corporate Red, the Secret Avenger.
Iron Spider-man in The Forgotten Ranger May 2015
Back in May 2015 in The Forgotten Ranger (now Avenger) during a off-screen secret ending of Avengers Age of Ultron, Corporate Red tells Tony Stark about Spider-man. He also tells Stark that he should invest in the web-sling and create Iron Spidey. Well that’s exactly what happen at the end of Spider-man Homecoming when Tony Stark revealed to Parker the Iron Spidey suit. Parker ends up declining the suit and offer to live at Avengers Facility. Even worse there was the media along with Pepper Potts awaiting Parker’s announcement. This was a reference to both the Civil War comic and The Forgotten Ranger. In the Civil War Comic Peter Parker next to Tony Stark reveals to the media his identity as Spider-man. Stark later creates the Iron Spidey suit for the web-head. In The Forgotten Ranger Corporate Red tells Stark to fund Spider-man and to create the Iron Spidey.
Coney Island
Coney Island made an appearance in The Forgotten Ranger/Avenger and makes an appearance in Spider-man Homecoming. Coney Island which is in Brooklyn, not Queens. During the scene the famous Parachute is destroyed.
Corporate Red is Aaron Davis nephew?
Aaron Davis who was trying to make weapons deals with Vulture’s henchmens says he has a nephew in NY. Some believe the nephew is Corporate Red since Marvel Studios has no plans to go the Miles Morals route.
The Original Shocker calls Vulture Red?
Before he gets murdered by Vulture, the original Shocker calls Vulture, “Red”? To Vulture’s reply, what?
Sinister Six Foreshadow Before Spider-man Homecoming in The Forgotten Avenger
Before the release of Spider-man Homecoming during the March 2017 re-release there’s a Sinister Six secret ending involving Kingpin, Shocker and Vulture. However in Spider-man Homecoming the secret ending involves only Vulture and Scorpion. The Homecoming ending puzzles the audience as to whether it ties to Corporate Red’s secret ending?
Avengers Tower Sold to Norman Osbourne?
During a few re-releases Tony Stark and Corporate Red meet Norman Osbourne. Its never stated why Stark is meeting with Osbourne but perhaps Stark in this secret off-screen ending through The Forgotten Avenger sold the Avengers Tower to Norman Osbourne?
Stark keeps Corporate Red a Secret in Homecoming
Tony Stark never reveals who refers him to Spider-man. He does state everyone thought he was crazy for recruiting Peter. But never reveals who refer him to Peter.
Defenders
Episode 7 September 11th Reference
When Colleen sneaks into the NYPD closet you’ll notice a 9.11 tribute in US flag colors. Now here’s the thing no one in the MCU (Avengers, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or Defenders) acknowledges 9/11. However one non-MCU character has a history with 9/11 and mentions it. That is non other than Corporate Red. Is Marvel Studios letting the audience know of The Forgotten Ranger through this sub-message? If readers recall September 11th was Corporate Red’s first ever loss as a crime fighter.
Marvels Defenders Teaser Poster
– The words Defenders are in red and white.
Marvel’s Iron Fist
Episode Titled Rolling Thunder Canon Punch
– Not just the title, but the references in the episode. Power Rangers have the lightning bolt symbol. But when you’re thinking of thunder canon punch or a power punch in the MCU most are thinking about a non-MCU character by the name of Corporate Red. This same episode also featured references. During a Danny Rand conversation with Jeri Hogarth two skateboarders are shown. Both are African-America and one of them is sporting the colors of Corporate Red, wearing a red hat, white shirt, black pants and a red and white sneakers.
In the episode titled Bar the Big Boss Bakuto says: Where living in a new age where governments aren’t true controllers of man’s destiny’s. It’s “corporations” like Rand Enterprises that govern the world.
This is interesting where Bakuta is saying “corporations” are running the world and not governments. The initiative CR was under was funded by Wall St. and under The World’s Security Council. In the original CR universe from TQR’s teen years there was no Marvel crossover and CR was started under an organization under The Corporation. This organization is mentioned during the Strange Effect of The Forgotten Ranger and after.
Alexander is Edea?
Alexander was confirmed by Marvel/Disney as a non-Marvel character. In episodes 2 and 4 there are similarities between Alexander and Edea. Are they the same people? Let’s read the dialogue from episode 4 of the Defenders and then let’s compare it to Corporate Red, The Forgotten Avenger. But before we do that remember what happen at the end of episode 2 when Alexander caused the entire New York City to go into a minor earthquake. Remember when the World Security Council told Corporate Red that Edea is a threat to world security? Interesting.. Alexander is a threat to New York City’s safety.
Defenders Episode 4:
Murakami is speaking in Japanese throughout the scene.
Murakami: (speaking in Japanese) It’s a bad idea to sneak up on a man holding a knife.
Alexander: Who says I’m sneaking?
Murakami: Ursus thiebtanus. The moon bear. Endangered now, but I found this one in Shikoku.
Alexander: I heard you were in Japan.
Murakami: Were you having me followed?
Alexander: You have your sport, I have mine.
Murakami: Ten days I tracked him. We sparred in the forest. He nearly killed me.
Alexander: They always nearly kill you.
Murakami: There’s no fun in it otherwise.
Alexander: You know where the organization stands. Our resources are depleted.
Murakami: Is that why you came here? To scold me like a child?
A child? Corporate Red reference? Continuing..
Alexander: No but you should worry about the possibility of death.
Murakami: From what I hear. we all should be worried.
Alexander: We’re close now. And the Iron Fist has returned to New York.
Murakami: I head you were unable to secure him.
Alexander: We will.
Murakami: Then we’re not close enough. The problem with your leadership has always been your inability to get your hands dirty.
Alexander: In all our times together, I have never asked for your advice.
Murakami: And why would you? Now that you have the Black Sky by your side.
Alexander: Yeah. The Iron Fist was not alone.
Murakami: Was the Chaste not extinguished?
Alexander: He seems to have found some allies. Three of them.
Murakami: Only three?
Sub-message? Murakami sounded sarcastic there. Remember The Forgotten Rangers fight 9 on 1 (Corporate Rangers vs Dark Sensi)?
Alexander: They were rather exceptional.
Murakami: And so, you come to me.
Alexander: I come to you because it’s important that we take care of this together.
Murakami: Have you told the others?
Alexander: Madame Gao and Sowande are ready and willing.
Murakami: And the other one..
Alexander: On his way.
Murakami: I always knew we’d reunite someday. I never thought the circumstance would be this dire.
Reunite? Are these the same two from The Forgotten Ranger? Just under different names? Stick may have the answer for that. But back to scene.
Alexander: That’s what families do, isn’t it
Murakami: What of your Black Sky?
Black Sky ring a bell? That sure doesn’t sound like Elektra.
Murakami: The thing you spend our final resources on.
Alexander: More powerful than you could ever imagine.
Murakami: Does this mean our faithful leader herself will also join the fight?
Alexander: As always, I do what’s necessary.
This sounds familiar.. (Corporate Red vs Queen Edea?)
Murakami: Then, as we used to say… “Together, we serve life itself.”
Alexander: (in Japanese) “Together, we serve life itself.”
Cover up Conspiracies mentioned in Corporate Red talked about in Defenders
Stick: Those tremors that shook up the place, they’re nothing compared to what comes next. The Hand’s done it before. Pompeii, Chernobyl. Events the history books like to call catastrophes, just cover-ups.
Stick confirms Alexander is Queen Edea?
Iron Fist: I came face-to-face with a woman at Midland Circle. She said she was The Hand.
Stick: She’s had a lot of names throughout the years. In my lifetime, Alexandra.
Is Alexandra Queen Edea? Would this explain why her Asian ally Murakami is very similar to the The Queen Edea and Matsui Korish similar to the Dark Sensi?
Stick: She set up alot of murders
(Is Corporate Red dead?)
Danny Rand: Don’t talk to me like I’m some kid.
Matt Murdock: Don’t act like some kid
Corporate Red references aka “some kid”? Corporate Red started at age fourteen.
Episode 5 – Edea Skilled Fighter, Kingdom/Village Destruction Reference?
Alexander: Huh.. You’re skilled my child. It’s clear watching you fight you know much more than anyone in a single life. It’s a compliment. They said the same thing about me.
Corporate Red reference? Alexander was once a fighter? Edea?
Murakami wants to join Alexander during her private meal. Here’s what Alexander says that sounds something very similar from Corporate Red, The Forgotten Ranger.
Alexander: I thought that entire vintage had been destroyed in the fires at Marseille.
Murakami: You’d be surprised what you can find at the bottom of the Balearic Sea.
In The Forgotten Ranger Queen Edea’s kingdom and the village she ruled over was destroyed by both the US government and S.H.I.E.L.D.
Episode 7 MCU/K’un-Lun fears Corporate Red?
K’un-Lun is very upset at Elektra for killing Alexandra. They bring up the fact they won’t know how to explain her death to corporate entities. Wait a minute? Time out.. This is The Hand.. Why would they be so concerned or afraid of explaining Alexander death to “corporate entities? This doesn’t make sense or this there a threat in the corporate entity? Remember in the last re-release of The Forgotten Avenger the secret ending between Corporate Red and Doctor Strange. Now check the scene below and compare the two.
Bakuto: This is not how we do business?
Elektra: It is now
Murakami: (in Japanese) Black Sky or not, there are three of us and one of you.
Elektra: Is that a challenge?
Bakuto: We will do what is needed to preserve our organization. This is not our first coup.
Elektra: It is your first without the substance. Is that a gamble you’re willing to take?
Gao: The Hand is a global organization. For years, Alexander fostered relationships with everything from crime lords to corporate partners.
Elektra: Corporate partners?
Gao: How do you explain her death to them?
Elektra: There’s no need for explanations.
Murakami: (in Japanese) What?
Gao: These relationships grant us invisibility in our operations. Our back-room accords. Our political affiliations. This gives us power.
This is big because in the sequel script (not released to the public) Corporate Red’s nemesis Edea teams with crimelords and corrupted corporate’s. That’s interesting.. Remember Alexander is not a Disney/Marvel character.
Episode 2
African-American boy tells Luke there are no heroes left. Has humanity lost faith in Iron Man and the Avengers already? Is Corporate Red still retired or is he dead as some have rumored? Is this what Murakami meant when he said the Chaste extinguished?
Daredevil Season 1 – Rwanda
During the episode Speak of the Devil in Netflix Daredevil of season one Father Lantom mentioned Rwanda. This is interesting because before the debut of Netflix Daredevil Rwanda is mentioned in The Forgotten Ranger, one of the countries Princess Edea visited during her dangerous humanitarian work. Father Lantom mentions helping refugees and refugees were mentioned during The Forgotten Ranger scene during Princess Edea humanitarian work in Rwanda. None of the MCU heroes have encountered Rwanda.
Skrulls
The Skrulls were announced in the Disney Avengers MCU after their debut in The Forgotten Ranger/Avenger
2014 Rumors
Rumors started back in 2014, along with sub-messages and references of copyrighted Corporate Red/Next Gen Quantum created by Terrell Quentin Rogers since Marvel’s Age of Ultron. The following two rumors were both back in 2014.
Rumor #1: Corporate Red will team up with Spider-man and Wolverine in 2017 leading into Infinity Wars.
So because of the Infinity War reveal at the Disney 23 Expo reveal it looks like the rumor #1 from 2014 probably won’t be the theory. But theory #2 from 2014 is the more likely route which is this one:
Rumor #2: Corporate Red will lead Luke Cage, Punisher, Daredevil, Kitty Pryde, Colossus, Deadpool and Magneto against Thanos in Infinity Wars Part II
– At the time of this rumor Disney/Marvel did not own the rights to Cage, Punisher or Daredevil. Deadpool wasn’t in production. Kitty, Colossus and Magneto still currently owned by FOX. There was only one Magneto (Ian McKellen). The Russo’s ever since Terrell Quentin Rogers released his version of Infinity Wars to the public have shown heavy interest in Deadpool and Wolverine. Since that rumor Infinity Wars Part II was later cancelled and replaced with an untitled Avengers film that many expect will debut a new hero, the term different. As for the rest, Daredevil ended up on Netflix, Punisher debut on Daredevil season two, and is expected a solo release later this year. Luke Cage debut on Jessica Jones (Netflix) back on Nov 20th, 2015, and later a series solo debut on Netflix back on Sept 30th, 2016. Deadpool debut on the silver screen back on February 12th, 2016. The film also featured Colossus. Last time we saw Magneto and Kitty Pryde was Days of Future Past. Since then there’s been two versions of Magneto young and old. Young Magneto portrayed by Michael Fassebender and old Eric portrayed by the legend himself Ian McKellen.
The match up below could’ve been the matchup for Avengers 4 had it taking the Secret Avenger route:
Team Corporate Red vs The Black Order.. What could’ve been Avengers 4
Corporate Red and Cable vs Thanos
Wolverine, Deadpool vs Corvus Glaive
Colossus vs Black Dwarf
Professor Charles Xavier and Magneto vs Ebony Maw
The Defenders (with Punisher) and Kitty Pryde vs Proxima Midnight
Stan Lee stopped from exposing Secret Avenger
During an event back in April of 2017 Stan Lee is stopped from revealing the Secret Avenger. This is the same week a big announcement was going to be made about Terrell Quentin Rogers aka Corporate Red big screen reveal. Marvel stopped Stan from the reveal and TQR cancelled the CR announcement. Also at this time Captain Marvel had already been confirmed for the MCU so she wasn’t the Secret Avenger and was already confirmed as to not being the Secret Avenger.
Disney D23 – a familiar scene appears in the Avengers Infinity War D23 Trailer
During the Disney D23 trailer Loki is seen handing what appears to be Thanos the Tesseract. This scene was first scene in the The Forgotten Ranger/Infinity Wars short story written by Terrell Quentin Rogers which can be found in the links below.
Hugh Jackman posted a photo on his facebook of himself at Disney Land the day of D23 Expo and same day of Corporate Red worldwide announcement. TQR back in June said he would be bringing in some friends from “FOX” for his Secret War. Jackman on his Facebook posted the sub-message “partners”. This was all before the Disney/FOX deal. While the two have never met Jackman has liked TQR’s comments on his wall. TQR has been supportive of Jackman’s work.

Marvel Cinematic Universe
Age of Ultron
During Tony Stark’s vision of the Avengers death there are dead bodies of both the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. You can see a dead S.H.I.E.L.D. member (male) laying next to Captain America and a dead S.H.I.E.L.D. member (female) laying next to Hawkeye. This would mean both the Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Guardians would lose to Thanos in Infinity War. The plan originally was for the non-Disney/Marvel Corporate Red/Secret Avenger to defeat Thanos. This sadly changed with the hero replaced by Captain Marvel, which still today is not going well with fans.
Tony Stark discovers Ultron and his clones.
Tony Stark discovers a secret room within the castle of Hydra in Sokovia. This secret room has the monster face Chitauri carrier and also a body of Ultron. There are also clones of Ultron in the room. The big question how did Hydra get their hands on Ultron in the first place? During The Forgotten Ranger it was revealed that Corporate Red defeated the original Ultron, and after its defeat Alexander Pierce had the AI and the data stored in a chip handed over to Baron Von Strucker.
Mysterious Voice: Why didn’t you do more?
During Tony Stark’s vision a mysterious voice asks Stark why didn’t you do more? It’s never stated who this unknown individual is, but some believe its Corporate Red. In the secret ending of The Forgotten Ranger Tony Stark tells Corporate Red about the vision he saw at the hands of Scarlett Witch. Stark also told Nick Fury about the same vision during Age of Ultron. (It’s never been revealed in the MCU who this voice is but many insiders say it was going to be Corporate Red)
Jarvis: There are elements I can’t Quantumfy
During the conversation between Tony Stark and Jarvis, Jarvis while analyzing Loki’s scepter states there are elements I can’t Quantumfy. This term Quantumfy, which may be referencing either the Quantum Realm (Ant-man) or Next Gen Quantum (The Forgotten Ranger) or a combination of both. Terrell/Corporate Red under S.H.I.E.L.D. became Agent Quantum/Next Gen Quantum where he fought Hydra and hunted down Bruce Banner under orders from The Council and S.H.I.E.L.D. Terrell/Next Gen Quantum also defeated the Hulk twice. Also keep in mind Age of Ultron was released before Ant-man.
Bruce: I thought Ultron was a fantasy
Tony Stark: Yesterday it was
In The Forgotten Ranger prologue scenes readers learn that Corporate Red fought an earlier version of Ultron created by Dr. Hank Pym. Known as “The Day of Ultron” Corporate Red is briefed by Gideon Malick, Alexander Pierce, and The Council who introduce the hero to Dr. Pym. CR fights Ultron and nearly gets killed in the process. Before the battle Dr. Pym gives CR a chip that carries a virus. The chip would be used to remove Ultron conscience from the artificial body. Corporate Red is successful, but the chip is taking by Alexander Pierce who secretly later hands it over to Baron Von Strucker. In the updated version of The Forgotten Range/Avenger Pierce also gives him the body of Ultron as well during the meeting. This explains how Hydra got their hands on Ultron and hostile AI’s program and physical body.
Tony Stark: What if, next time aliens roll up to the club, and they will
(Infinity War reference)
Tony seems to know everything now since the vision shown to him by Scarlett Witch.
Bruce Banner: Sounds like a cold world Tony.
Tony Stark: I’ve seen colder.
This colder has been changed by the Time Stone.
The sub-words cold world and colder were referring to the secret cold war of The “World’s” Security Council against Queen Edea. The Corporate Rangers were in a secret Cold War against Queen Edea. While the public was aware of the team’s heroics against hybrid monsters, what the public wasn’t aware othat the hybrids were being sent to the US by Queen Edea. During a war against the Corporate Initiative, a hybrid monster froze the Prehistoric Metallic Beasts and later took control of the them. A very young Tony Stark is called upon by The World’s Security Council to create a high frequency electromagnetic pulse weapon (incase the Pentagon’s EMP weapon failed which it did), to help seventeen year old at the time Terrell/Corporate Red and his team against their own defense system. Stark ‘s EMP worked and the CR and his team later regained control of their prehistoric metallic beasts and destroyed Edea’s hybrid. The storyline was an inspiration from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers season two’s three part episode The Mutiny. The EMP in Captain America Civil War appears to have been a reference to The Forgotten Ranger flashback scene. The Forgotten Ranger script keep in mind written back in 2014 and released in 2015, long before Civil War. This scene in the updated version because of the events of Doctor Strange is altered in which now its hackers hired by Edea taking over the defense system of Corporate Red and his faction. In the changed timeline due to the Time Stone/Doctor Strange/Agents of SHIELD Edea’s hackers hack into the prehistoric beasts. It’s a day known as the Corporate Rangers “Cold Day”.
Where’s my, where’s your body?
– James Spader/Ultron
The biggest question even to this very day nobody has yet ask (not even the die hard fans have asked) why was Ultron asking for his body? Ultron goes from asking about the whereabouts of his own body to quickly asking where is Jarvis’s body? Why would Ultron want to know where is his own body, and then asking Jarvis where is his body? This goes back to the The Forgotten Ranger prologue, and as stated CR removed Ultron from his original body. Ultron’s physical body and AI mind is handed over to Baron von Strucker and Hydra in The Forgotten Ranger.
Brooklyn
Brooklyn is the home of both Steve Rogers/Captain America and Terrell Rogers/Corporate Red (ironic both have the same last names)
– Brooklyn in real life is expensive, and Corporate Red knows this since he too was born, raised and still lives in Brooklyn. After all Brooklyn receive its spotlight of the Chitauri InVasion in “The Forgotten Ranger” and mentioning in Age of Ultron (Brooklyn/The Forgotten Ranger cameo reference). As Captain America stated I don’t think I can afford a place in Brooklyn.
Agent Maria Hill’s Red dress/Tertesterone comment
– One of the biggest notices in Avengers: Age of Ultron was Agent Maria Hill wearing a red dress. In “The Forgotten Ranger” Agent Maria Hill is a close ally of Terrell/Corporate Red. She’s like a best friend. Did any of you catch what Agent Maria Hill said before she coughed during the party scene conversation with Tony, James and Thor? Testosterone right? Wrong.. Listen
Agent Maria Hill: “Ter”testerone
James Rhodes: Are you okay?
Tony Stark and Thor smile at the reference (audience missed it the first time)
Ultron early data/memory transfer scenes/ red boxes?
– If you look closely during Ultron’s date transfers in parts of the movie there were red boxes. These red boxes were data memory banks of Ultron’s encounter with Corporate Red.
The “Forgotten” reference
Tony Stark: Anyone “remember” I carried a nuke into a “wormhole”?
James Rhodes: No, never came up, never heard of that.
Watch Agent Maria Hill’s facial expression.
– Terms don’t remember and wormhole both The Forgotten Ranger references. Terrell in one of his conversations with Agent Maria Hill during “The Forgotten Ranger” said the word wormhole. Agent Hill said that’s an old term. The word wormhole which is barely used in today’s world, since most in today’s society use the term portal or gateway.
Tony Stark: A hostile alien army charging through a hole in space. We’re standing three hundred feet below it. We’re the Avengers. We can bust arm dealers for a living long day. But that up there, that’s the end game. How do you guys plan on beating that?
Captain America: Together
Tony Stark: We’ll lose
Captain America: Then we’ll do that together too
In Avengers Infinity War they did lose.
Tony Stark: I don’t trust a guy without a dark side
Captain America: That’s because you haven’t see it yet.
– We know….
Bucky Barnes murdering Stark’s parents discovered by Corporate Red before Zemo Reveal/ Spider-man discovery
– In the first drafts of The Forgotten Ranger Corporate Red in a extra ending tell Tony Stark that it was Bucky Barnes who killed Stark’s parents and that they will need a distraction while he hunts down Bucky Barnes. CR then tells Stark about Spider-man. In Captain America Civil War Zemo shows the footage to Stark who learns the truth. But Stark never tells Spider-man or the audience for that matter who refer him to Spider-man. Hmm..
If you go to Robert Downey Jr facebook page of Feb 2017 he posted a photo of a fish bowl with a goldfish and a Iron Man toy. Now some felt that Downey jr was hinting at Namor. But wait a minute, the creator of Corporate Red and the character itself both born during the month of March, which in the astrology community is called Pisces, who’s symbol is a fish.
The Russo Brothers Announce a new character in Infinity Wars? Red Ninja
If you go to the Russo Brothers FB page (Feb 8th, 2017) this announcement is still having people wondering is this Corporate Red’s entry into Infinity War? In the photo cosplay the character titled red ninja appears to have a knife weapon and a plasma gun. Well there’s one problem. Nobu from Marvel’s Marvel’s Daredevil does wear a red ninja costume, but he doesn’t have a plasma gun. There’s also no red costume hero with a plasma gun in the MCU. However a certain character outside of the MCU in a special crossover (The Forgotten Ranger) does have a plasma gun.
When it was announced that Infinity War will become a solo movie, and that the sequel will be a different Avengers movie many have wondered what was meant by the term different. Here’s what Joe Russo told Cinema Blend back in August of last year.
“We wanted the movie to be very different and distinctive, you know? “There’s certainly cross-pollination between characters and some story-arcs, but you know, the first movie is very clearly Avengers: Infinity War and, in time, we will reveal what the second film is… You’ll learn [it], but not for quite some time.”
– Joe Russo interview with Cinema Blend
Did this learn mean we’ll read about the new hero? Perhaps you the fans have already have? What’s interesting Joe Russo states we won’t know about the second film for quite some time. So far it has not been revealed who the new “different” hero in 2019 is. In a recent update Marvel fans have learned that 2018 is Thanos movie? Could 2019 be CR movie? Ragnarok colors anyone?
Marvels/Netflix Luke Cage: A woman talks about spandex heroes? Corporate Red and his faction?
– In the episode titled You Know My Steez it appears a woman is referencing a group of crime fighting spandex heroes, possibly Corporate Red and his faction.
Woman: All these people were talking bad about Luke Cage. But they didn’t stop for one minute to think look at the good he had done. Cleaning up christmas attics by himself. Looking out for people. Most of these guys wear spandex. Who would’ve thought a black guy in a hoody would be a hero.
Now who are these spandex fighters she was referring to that look out for people? Well Daredevil suit isn’t considered spandex. Spider-man suit isn’t spandex either (one created by Stark and the other homemade by Parker). So who are these spandex fighters the woman is referring to? Corporate Red and his faction, grown adults in spandex fighting suits? Is this Corporate Red and his factions first reference in the Netflix Marvel universe?
Agsard’s Destruction in Thor Ragnarok confirmed in The Forgotten Ranger before Ragnarok trailer
– The Forgotten Ranger confirmed Asgard’s Destruction a year before the release of the Thor Ragnarok trailer. Marvel has already spoiled for the fans of its destruction through the recent Thor Ragnarok trailer. Is the spoiler a Corporate Red reference? Ironic since Corporate Red was told of Asgard’s destruction by a scientist during a post ending in The Forgotten Ranger.
ABC’s/Shonda Rhimes Scandal Reference?
Awhile back CR creator TQR tagged/hash tagged Shonda Rhimes in some of his earlier The Forgotten Ranger scripts which included Rowan Pope. Since then some believe Shonda has been referencing the hero in her shows. One episode titled Heavy is the Head where a princess tells Olivia the world will never know she is not human. She is later murder that evening. In the episode titled The Box many believe the completed dinosaur Rowan Pope complete’s is a Corporate Red reference at CR’s metallic beast. Rowan Pope in The Forgotten Ranger recruited Terrell into becoming Corporate Red.
During the january 26th, 2018 episode of Scandal it appears the series reference Corporate Red again, and there were some major big references. The first major one being the red dinosaur and Rowan Pope constantly talking/arguing with it. It appears the red dinosaur is symbolism of a peace maker (Corporate Red?). The other major reference was during the bar scene with Rowan and his new friend Marv. During the conversation they talk about corporations and communists and long time readers of The Forgotten Ranger caught this one big time.
During the The Forgotten Ranger prequels The Council was in a war against both The Skrulls and communists aka The Soviet Union, North Vietnam and any nation associated with communism. The Skrulls were also allies of the Soviets during the Cold War. It was also the men and women of Wall St. in their secret alliance with the Council that helped fund and created The Corporate Initiative. After it was greenlight Rowan Pope recruited Terrell which turned him into Corporate Red, the 21st century crime fighter who would later become Next Gen Quantum under S.H.I.E.L.D.. In the un-release universe, the original timeline of Corporate Red also created by Terrell Quentin Rogers there was no crossover with the Marvel universe, just a corporate initiative (way before the creation of Scandal and the MCU).
Many have asked why is Rowan constantly talking to the toy dinosaur? Is it a symbolism of an old human friend? A past heroic mantle? When the fans think of the red dinosaur, their either thinking Power Rangers or Corporate Red.
Stay tuned for more updates.
