(B − V), (V − r), and (V − i) color evolution of SN 2012Z (red stars), compared to the Type Iax SN 2005hk (blue dots) and the un-reddened, normal Type Ia SN 2006ax (solid line). The photometry of SN 2006ax is taken from Contreras et al. (2010). The color curves of SNe 2005hk and 2012Z have been corrected for Milky Way and host extinction adopting E(B − V)_tot = 0.112 mag (Chornock et al. 2006; Phillips et al. 2007) and E(B − V)_tot = 0.105 mag, respectively, while the color curves of SN 2006ax have been corrected for Milky Way reddening.
