Intellectual property policy

Such an interesting subject.

Asides from the writeups expressely labelled as being home-grown and portraying original characters, all of the featured characters and distinctive likenesses are the intellectual property of someone else (comic book publishers or authors, writers, movie right holders, etc.). Quite obviously all trademarks and copyrights are owned by their respective owners. Each and every entry is specifically labelled as to it's source - usually the comic book universe/publisher, the name and author of the book, the title of the movie, etc.

All of those copyrights, trademarks, etc. are used without authorization.

None of those trademarks are used in association with any commercial venture. Writeups.org is a completely non-lucrative endeavour, and is not intended to challenge any trademark or copyright. Obviously, the names of the writeups' writer and helpers indicate peoples who wrote the text about the character and do not indicate any claim of ownership about the featured character or its depiction.

It is in fact likely that reading about those characters will spark interest in the featured characters - that, at least, has been our regular experience.

Writeups.org remains available to edit specific writeups at the request of the properly identifed copyright holders.
