Red Champion (Hyper-Über-Proto Gerosha)

The Red Champion was an idea for a character, never fully fleshed out, that would have been an additional sidekick to the Gray Champion during the early drafting days of Hyper-Über-Proto Gerosha's timeline in 2001. He was to be part of a flag-themed American trio of spectral heroes that followed in the Gray Champion's footsteps, along with the White and Blue Champions.

Trivia
In 2013, the previously unnamed "Red Champion" was brought back, but revised for the Catalcysmic Gerosha timeline, as a mockery "Black Champion" figure. The Pied Piper-esque Lyle Smitterton was rewritten as "Blackveil," an adversary to John Domeck whose name and suit are a reference to The Minister's Black Veil.
