> Disney was a long-time licensee to the animation rights, and cooperated with the hospital when its copyright claim was clear, but in 2004 Disney published Dave Barry's and Ridley Pearson's Peter and the Starcatchers in the U.S., the first of several sequels, without permission and without making royalty payments. In 2006, Top Shelf Productions published Lost Girls, a sexually explicit graphic novel featuring Wendy Darling, in the U.S., also without permission or royalties.
- swayvil 3y agoHey I read Lost Girls. It's by Alan Moore (Watchmen, Swamp Thing...). It's good.
- Jiro 3y agoIs a well-written Naruto fanfiction featuring Naruto and Sasuke having sex good? Because that's what this is the pre-Internet equivalent of.
- patmorgan23 3y agoI'm not seeing your point. Writing is writing, it's not good or bad because it's fan fiction or inspired/derived from another writer's work. And there are plenty of great works of writing that feature sexually explicit scenes.
- josefx 3y agoDidn't Fifty Shades of Grey start out as a Twilight fanfic?
- tialaramex 3y agoYes, interestingly it's not even notably good fan fic. So this suggests that there was an underserved audience. That is to say there were a lot of people (mostly women, statistically) who wanted to read about this messed up romance where the very rich guy with mummy issues treats our heroine poorly and she's ok with that because of the money. In some larger cultural sense that's not great, but nobody else was writing the stories they wanted to read.
- mock-possum 3y ago… is it not? Well written fanfiction is still well written. I mean, look at Monty Python And The Holy Grail. Is that not well written Arthurian fanfiction?
- bazoom42 3y agoDoesn’t “well-written” imply “good”? Or is there a nuance I’m missing?
- msla 3y agoYes, to the same extent Idylls of the King is well-written King Arthur fanfiction.
