HTML comics swarmed down on by comics publishers

Hey mighty Joe this is the Wolfman sending out a warning that the big boy publishers are getting busy in the States having formed some kinda collective pack to go after anyone publishing their material. So ...

Be careful out there ....

  1. yeah, I was reading about this one. seems the bloke who was running the one site in particular they went after was a bit of a loon, who not only kept posting all the very latest comics as they came out, but kept on daring the creators/publishers to do their worst. so they did. from what I know about him, he seems like a major cock. Colleen Doran had a few run-ins with him, which she talks about on her own site.

    Comicsworld has gone down, too. but Comicworld was a rapidshare-link hosting site, which hosted pretty much every comic you could possibly think of ( complete runs of Batman/Action/Spider-Man/X-Men, etc ). great for trying out stuff you've never read before, yeah, but you can see where the publishers might not warm to it.

    I keep threatening to declare FAIR USE, but I'm guessing that's not going to wash. we shall see, chum. . .
