you just think he's wearing an armored suit...
Michael Keaton's fault....not the most buff guy in the universe....
I honestly don't think they are going to mess with Superman's Powers to much...he is still going to be awesome over all...
I still think bullits will bounce off of him, and I still think kryptonite will still hurt him, and lex luthor will still try his same ol same old.
Well since if the lawsuit goes through they can't use anything that Slagel and Shuster wrote, yes we will loose Krypton so we will lose Kryptonite as well. We will loose Ma and Pa Kent since they are his parents as written by them. Lois Lane, Lex Luthor, Lana Lang, the solar power, most of the other major villains that go with him, etc. We will still be able to maintain everything established after since so basically most of Silver-Age Superman. But we'll get to keep Metropolis and The Daily Planet since Slagel and Shuster wrote it as New York and The Daily Sun. But all the people in the building were their creations so those will have to go. They are positioning themselves in a place where they can rewrite or disregard the first 12 years of the characters origins as written by the creators. Too bad Slagel and Shuster were two silly kids who just wanted to write and draw because the lawyers screwed them out of their fair share of their own creation and DC forced them out of their own book. If they were smart like Bob Kane was with his Batman deal where he had editorial controle and still made money till he died a few years ago when it was taken over by Denny O'neil.
Bob Kane learned from their mistakes?
Happens a lot to the enthusiastic newbs, music, writing, invention...the world is full of tragic stories like that.
Generally speaking $$$ fixes a lot of those problems though...should they win their case, the publisher might have to shell out some major money...UI mean, Kryptonite and Lois Lane, those are canon, can't have the man of steel without either...
Bob didn't make the mistake, Slagel and Shuster did. Bob was also a grown man and author at the time who came into the industry a couple years after those two. He had the experience of a grown writer who knew how the business worked.
It could get settled like the Wonder Woman thing, or like the Watchmen film rights thing a couple years ago. But WW and Watchmen don't make nearly the money Superman does, movies, TV, animation, merchandising, and we have not even considered his comic titles since he headlines 5 books as well as being in the JL books.
Nah. They changed it to Metropolis and The Daily Planet from Ny and The Daily Sun after the Slagel/Shuster split from the company. All the supporting cast was the same though. So keep the Daily Planet and populae it with a new cast?
I don't think you can trademark the staff of a paper...
But he could start working for Faux? :lfao:
(If I keep going down that road you will end up hating me...as I lack the required respect for the gravity of the matter)
It would be interesting to see the outcome, from a purely academical POV: How to you divide the royalties on an American Icon/Pop culture which has steeped into the very fabric of consciousness. I think even the dullest knife in the drawer knows what's what when you mention Kryptonite and 'Man of Steel' (except my dumb spell checker....has no idea what that stuff is...)
I pronounce it as "Suzanne" too. Luckily at some point I did cite the lawsuit rather than talking off the top of my head when clearly I cannot remember letters or the orders they go in.
I <3 you anyhow
:angel:
(but, no, Dahling, my name is not Suzanne....)
