I can't speak to the legality of it other than to say that it will hopefully be addressed as part of larger discussions.Marc Tyler Noblemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10732005290440645718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6611875170009784219.post-40127805621141979992014-06-10T19:10:52.702-04:002014-06-10T19:10:52.702-04:00Now what about the reprint money DC payed out for ...Now what about the reprint money DC payed out for years to someone WAS NOT a legal heir of Bill's son after he died?

I...I just don't see this as being significant. It's no different than common story credits, just on the outside. Kane and Finger are listed here with 5 other people and certainly not marquee names. If Kane and Finger were together and offset somehow, I'd read it as trying to group Finger along with Kane as creators. As it is, it's just a credits list that doesn't make Finger significantly different than Chip Kidd.Bob Rivardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09345116240123706105noreply@blogger.com
