Since the creation of the comic book, there has been a lot of legal
conflict and confusion where concepts such as public domain,
unincorporated entities and moral rights are involved. As a result,
comics creators are frequently concerned about whether they are
protecting themselves. There are many questions and no single place
to find the answers - that is, until now. Entertaining as it
instructs, this book seeks to provide those answers, examining the
legal history of comics and presenting information in a way that is
understandable to everyone. While not seeking to provide legal
advice, or case history this book presents the legal background in
plain English, and looks at the stories behind the cases. Every
lawsuit has a story and every case has lessons to be learned. As
these lessons are explored, the reader will learn the importance of
contracts, the precautions necessary when working with public
domain characters, and the effects of censorship.
Being a teenage girl is hard enough, but for DeDe Christopher, it
is proving impossible. In addition to cliques, books, and boys, she
has to worry about capes, apes, and aliens. Last year, DeDe
discovered that she possessed fantastic abilities that were
strangely similar to those of a comic book character named SkyBoy.
With the help of her best friend Jason, a self-professed comic
geek, DeDe accepted her legacy and became Sky Girl. Now, DeDe must
learn what it means to be a heroine as Sky Girl faces the all too
real enemies and allies of SkyBoy, including the clever Quizmaster,
the beautiful Penny Pound, the enigmatic Jersey Devil, and the
magical MissTick. DeDe must also face personal challenges as she
discovers the secrets of her late father and his connection to
Skyboy -secrets that will affect Sky Girl's destiny.
