[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Nothing in that says or implies that DH got nothing for those stories- there's no way that just because Disney owns the rights to the characters, that they also magicly got rights to the art and stories- in comics, when a book gets reprinted the writers and artists get a sorta royalty. SH paid for all that stuff, not Lucasfilm. Remember that DH paid to use that stuff- like hoe Fox pays for making Spider Man movies- once the lisence expires, it does not inply that Disney gets those Fox-created movies, only that Fox can't make more. I saw the same kind of thing happen several times in the comics world (the 90's was rife with it)- like when DC bought Comico or Marvel bought Malibu (for their digital presses)- they got the company and the charcaters but the stories were a seperate gag. Just for some "light" reading, check out the 30-plus year legal battle over Miracleman- the characters, the stories the art...everything was a seperate legal cluster-fight. We have no idea how that worked in this case- or if Marvel/Disney has to pay that when they reprint or if it was all some "work for hire" deal that caused so many great comics creators to end up penniless while Marvel and DC made billions. I'm hoping that guys like John Jackson Miller get [b]something[/b] for creating characters like Zayne Carrick or Rholan Dyre- guys that already in some cases have action figures and T Shirts and whatever. All that being said, I'd dearly looove for KotOR to get a huge following and for it to lead to other media- a CW-style series could make the OT look like the SW Christmas Special by comparison.
