ORLANDO, FL - Red Giant Entertainment Inc. (OTCQB: REDG), an innovative Intellectual Property company specializing in high quality characters and content for use in a variety of media and entertainment, is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement to develop a graphic novel based on the independent feature film Blue Caprice. The anthology series, Public Enemies, will act as a companion to the film Blue Caprice, exploring the tangled motivations of the killers and the legacy of their violence.

Blue Caprice, the directing debut of Alex Moors, is produced by Red Giant management Board Members Isen Robbins and Aimee Schoof. R.F.I. Porto, the film's screenwriter, will also be writing the graphic novel. The story investigates the events surrounding the Beltway Sniper attacks that terrorized the Washington, D.C. area in the fall of 2002. The film stars Isaiah Washington (Grey's Anatomy), Tequan Richmond (Everybody Hates Chris), Tim Blake Nelson (The Incredible Hulk), and Joey Lauren Adams (Chasing Amy). Blue Caprice had a strong showing at The Sundance Film Festival and has an 86% positive rating as of this writing on Rotten Tomatoes. Currently, the film is shown nationwide via IFC/Sundance selects and is available for home/mobile viewing through iTunes.

Recently, The CourierOnline.com stated, "Blue Caprice makes for a strong Oscar contender."

"Red Giant is opening up popular independent films with compelling stories and characters to entirely new audiences online," said Isen Robbins, Producer, Blue Caprice and Chief Intellectual Property Officer, Red Giant Entertainment. "By introducing these intellectual properties to a comic audience proven to be highly interested in the genre, we can effectively create lasting footprints and longevity for the story while broadening audience for the film itself."

"Just as we have and continue to change the way people read comics we fully intend to alter and assist in the transformation of film to the vast comic audience," added Aimee Schoof, Producer, Blue Caprice and Chief Business Development Officer, Red Giant Entertainment. "We are pleased that the adaptation of the spectacular film Blue Caprice will launch our new true crime series, Public Enemies."

R.F.I. Porto added, "The deadly puzzle at the heart of Blue Caprice has many more pieces left to assemble. This comic offers us the unique opportunity to further examine the journey which led to those nightmarish shootings."
