Seems like an awkward question but it does deal with shirt design's so please answer if you can.
Hi all,
Well with sooooooo many comic book super heroes, they all seem similar to one another and changing them one way can make them seem to be like a another different comic book character.
So if I were to make a comic book hero t-shirt design, I am worried about copyright infringement.
For example, if I were to create a fire super hero who is always in flames... would that mean I am copying The Human Torch from the Fantastic Fours? Would that be considered copyright infringement?
Or say I create a character like Spider Man but his web design is different and he does not have a spider logo same color, blue and red... can Marvel slap me with a law-suit saying that I am using their character but with a slightly different design?
**Sorry forgot to mention, the name will obviously not be the same. thanks dom42 for reminding me**
PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME that I am copying someone else's hard work and ideas and using it for my own gain. That is wayyyy far from what I want to do. I want to make my own legacy if you would say so.
It's just that with comic book superheroes, all the colors, all the designs are similar to one another, how much can you really change?
Thank you for reading and hopefully, posting back some good feedback.
