Hilariously, the security company set up by Luis (Michael Pena), Kurt (David Dastmalchian) and Dave (T.I.) is named "X-Con Security Consultants", a not-so-subtle reference to their criminal past (and present, really).

The group itself is meanwhile a nod to the comics, where Scott Lang formed a security company, Ant-Man Security Solutions, comprised of scarcely-reformed felons.

Furthermore, the spelling of X-Con is most certainly a cheeky little reference to the X-Men, who have of course cornered the market on everything X-related in the superhero world.
