Important Importables
Jenni Lada brings us information about all of the groovy new gaming imports from around the world.
The children of deceased artist Jack Kirby have reportedly filed 45 notices of termination of copyright. If successful, they would acquire their father’s share of copyrights on characters including the Fantastic Four, Hulk and X-Men, retaining the rights for several years before the characters become public.
If they win the suit, they would get a share of profits from anything involving those characters and could even sell the rights. Heck, they could even sell them to Disney. According to Guardian, “The new claims have implications for a large number of media companies, including Sony Pictures, which owns film rights to Spider-Man, Universal, which has distribution rights to Hulk films, and 20th Century Fox, which owns film rights to the Fantastic Four and X-Men.”
