I didn't even know there was a Captain Battle movie. I know of the Golden Age character so I recognized the costume. Looking at the picture, I assume that it's similar to the first Captain America movie. And yes, there's plenty of public domain GA characters that could make good movie. The problem is finding good filmmakers and getting a decent budget.

Let me know if the following statement is correct:

Just because there was an symbiote named Riot in the Venom movie, it does NOT mean that one of the five spawns of Venom in the mainstream comics is also called Riot.

Where: The Lost Boys
Comic: Destroy All Vampires / Vampires Everywhere



Fake vampire comics created as props for the 1980s movie The Lost Boys, which from the covers are some what "Tomb of Dracula"-esque. Unlike the other comics mention, you CAN buy these though! A few years ago someone got the rights and produced facsimiles of the props, complete with interior stories that obviously weren't shown in the movie (not sure if they props had interior stories or not, and so unsure whether the facsimiles made up a new story or reproduced unseen material that was actually made for the movie - but I suspect the former). And these facsimiles are available to purchase.
 

And Blackthorne Publishing and their book XL (seen on the back cover) are real
