Crimson is a fictional superhero and agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the Marvel Comics universe. The character first appeared in She-Hulk vol. 2 #16 (April 2007), and was created by Dan Slott and Rick Burchett.
When he is first seen, he mentions to be a loyal follower to Cyttorak, the same being that granted Juggernaut his powers.
He somehow became the head of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Magic-Ops Division. He was there when the Wendigo creature attacked Canada, and refused to let that country's local magician, Talisman interfere until she mentioned she had a spell that could cure the Wendigo.
