Thanks for the Circus and Danger Jon they are now up. Unfortunately Dynamite is not PD so we miss out on Johnny D with the Morisi art

JonTheScanner · « **Reply #501 on:** August 02, 2009, 04:04:33 PM »

Sorry, I didn't see that in it's listing.

Since Dynamite isn't PD, might I suggest that the image used for Comic Media be changed.

Yoc · « **Reply #502 on:** August 02, 2009, 05:50:17 PM »

Changed, thanks for the uploads Jon.

How is Dynamite not public domain? There are no renewals at the LoC database. I know there was some guy who posted that some other guy "bought the rights," but that's not exactly compelling, is it? If the books weren't renewed, they couldn't have been bought, plain and simple.

If that's not the case, then I just "bought all the rights" to Shakespeare's plays and Jane Austen's novels. Cha-ching!

Could be PD. I thought Morisi owned the rights. Maybe in deference to the creator?

JonTheScanner · « **Reply #505 on:** August 04, 2009, 12:35:56 AM »

You can own the rights to something without owning the copyright -- or at least so I'm told. DC apparently bought the rights to the Charlton Action Heroes but not the copyrights to the already published stories. I assume buying the rights meant buying the trademark so they could use the name. Now it's not clear that the trademark was still alive, active, or whatever you call it then since Charlton hadn't published any stories in a while, but I suppose DC was just playing it safe.

Some high praise for Jon's scans of Planet 47 posted over on the FHF group -

Quote

Listen, I can't find the email what tells who did it, but whoever scanned and
edited Planet # 47 is fookin' brill!! Oh yeah! Just as an exercise, I subtracted
all the color from the Murphy Anderson story, and WOO-EE!!! A lovely line
drawing resulted with nary a smudge!!! How in Fred's name did they achieve such
a purist's dream of an art page?

My liver-felt thanks,

=Lincoln Yaco

Seems you've got yourself a fan Jon!

John C · « **Reply #507 on:** August 04, 2009, 02:14:00 PM »

Right. As Ed recently pointed out, it's actually rare for a company to actually buy and transfer copyrights (and that's irrelevant in this case, because the copyrights didn't exist at the time of purchase), leaving only the trademarks.

The claimant, here, is Max Allen Collins (who bought "the rights" in 1987 and has reprinted and adapted the stories since), so it also doesn't have anything to do with Morisi, as it would be with Peter Cannon, for example.

Thanks for passing this along, Yoc. I don't actually do much different on most of the scans I do. I do vary the color correction some. I think it's very very highly dependent on the course material.

I go through rethinking-phases and at times I think I over-brighten. Though I do think that does make extracting line art easier.

Yoc · « **Reply #509 on:** August 04, 2009, 04:07:44 PM »

Np Jon, I figured you'd enjoy reading Linc's comments. He's certainly one of the most vocally supportive readers on Yahoo. His kind words about the LB project had me blushing.

JonTheScanner · « **Reply #523 on:** September 01, 2009, 08:22:21 PM »

Yoc,

BDW #17 didn't get updated. Did it fail to FTP or did it get lost? I'm not sure I can do a direct upload to replace an existing comic, or can I?
