"Filmmaking isn't art. It's more than that. It's science, which is why I'm gonna beat these movie yahoos at their own game."
―Howard Stark[src]

Stark Pictures is a film studio subsidiary of Stark Industries founded by Howard Stark in 1947 to revolutionize the filming industry. The Stark Pictures Studios Lot is located in Los Angeles.

"Are they ready for a movie based on a comic book? Sounds like a dreadful idea."
"I'll have you know this is a historical drama, Kid Colt was a real person, and if it fails there'll be a substantial write off come tax season."
―Peggy Carter and Howard Stark[src]

When Howard Stark went to Los Angeles to close a defense contract, he liked the scene so much that he decided to create Stark Pictures. One of the first tasks Stark performed in creating the studio was to find a location scout, whom he quickly seduced.[1] Stark decided that the comic book Kid Colt, Outlaw, which was actually a historical text with drawn pictures, would make a good movie. As a backup plan if the film was not successful, Stark would write it off on his taxes.[2]

Film and Filming[]

"The man's a certifiable genius. He wants to waste it on making movies."
―Whitney Frost[src]

Howard Stark, using his genius intellect, realized that he could change the filming industry if he could record not only visible light on film, but invisible light, such as infrared and x-rays, as well, so he and Edwin Jarvis worked on creating a solution that would do that. One day while filming, Stark was interrupted by Jarvis and Peggy Carter who were standing in the camera shot as Kid Colt was soon to feud with the Sheriff; Stark sent everyone to lunch while he talked to his friends. Later, Stark hired a bevy of scantily-clad young ladies under the title of "production assistants," to help him to think; he used these ladies to help Carter to infiltrate the Arena Club.[2]
