Kingsman: The Secret Service

Namor the Sub-Mariner ( ) (Namor McKenzie) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
 Debuting in early 1939, the character was created by writer-artist Bill Everett for Funnies Inc., one of the first "packagers" in the early days of comic books that supplied comics on demand to publishers looking to enter the new medium.
 Initially created for the unreleased comic "Motion Picture Funnies Weekly", the Sub-Mariner first appeared publicly in "Marvel Comics" #1 (cover-dated Oct. 1939) – the first comic book from Timely Comics, the 1930s–1940s predecessor of the company Marvel Comics.
 During that period, known to historians and fans as the Golden Age of Comic Books, the Sub-Mariner was one of Timely's top three characters, along with Captain America and the original Human Torch.
 Everett said the character's name was inspired by Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem, "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner".
 Everett came up with "Namor" by writing down noble sounding names backwards and thought Roman/Namor looked the best.
The Amory Wars, originally titled The Bag.On.Line Adventures, is an ongoing series of comic books written by Coheed and Cambria frontman Claudio Sanchez and published by Evil Ink Comics.
 The story of "The Amory Wars" is also the focus of the band's music.
 Each studio album released by the band (with the exception of "The Color Before the Sun") tells a chapter in the science fiction saga originally narrated by Sanchez's lyrics.
 Many individual songs on these albums (e.g., "The Crowing," "Everything Evil," "Three Evils") use a particular song structure known as "terminally climactic form" in order to depict a particularly violent action from the comic books once in a pivotal moment only heard at the song's ending.
Superman of Earth-Two is an alternate version of the fictional superhero Superman, who appears in American comic books published by DC Comics.
 The character was introduced after DC Comics created Earth-Two, a parallel world that was retroactively established as the home of characters whose adventures had been published in the Golden Age of comic books.
 This allowed creators to publish Superman comic books taking place in current continuity while being able to disregard Golden Age stories, solving an incongruity, as Superman had been published as a single ongoing incarnation since inception.
 The character first appeared in "Justice League of America" vol.
 1 #73 (August 1969).
Golden Circle is a subsidiary of US-based Kraft Heinz, based in Brisbane, Queensland.
 Its main operations are food processing.
 Golden Circle was inducted into the Queensland Business Leaders Hall of Fame in 2010, for its significant contribution to the economy of Queensland through the processing of food products notably fruit and vegetables.
Robin of Earth-Two is an alternate version of the fictional superhero Robin, who appears in American comic books published by DC Comics.
 The character was introduced after DC Comics created Earth-Two, a parallel world that was retroactively established as the home of characters which had been published in the Golden Age of comic books.
 This allowed creators to publish comic books taking place in current continuity while being able to disregard Golden Age stories featuring Robin, solving an incongruity, as Robin had been published as a single ongoing incarnation since inception.
 Unlike his main counterpart, Robin is only the alter ego of Dick Grayson, who uses the title into adulthood, rather than taking on later codenames such as Nightwing or Batman.
 In addition, the name "Robin" is not taken on by later characters.
