> Obviously their point was that Bateman was too close to Batman. Their point is moot. DC comics will have to go after people who own 'Patrick Bateman'. This isn't infringement(nobody is going to confuse a trading software named Bateman with a book/movie character); even if it were, the owners of 'Patrick Bateman' and not DC comics can claim infringement. At most, he will have to remove the image of Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman, but I doubt it will come to it. Also, batman.js is in business, and DC comics didn't go after them. At what grounds did they went after your friend? Naming your software batman or superman isn't infringing DC's trademarks.
