Has there ever been a case where a fan fic cuts into the bottom line of the original??? A fan fic is ultimately just a subpar copy.

- mock-possum 3y agoGood fan art is neither sub-par nor copy - what it ultimately is is derivative, generally in the sense that relies on the audience’s prior experience with the source material. You don’t have to go to all the trouble to establish and introduce a world and characters, the audience is already familiar with all that - you can get right down to the alterations that characterize your spin on the story. Transformative works are not illegitimate. Dismissing works like A Fox In Space (aka Starfox The Animated Series) as ‘a subpar copy’ is ridiculously ignorant.
