DC issues cease and desist

[Hazardous]

So, apparently DC comics doesn't want fans getting any of their characters tattooed on them. This is as useless as a war on drugs. You will never be able to stop it from happening. I too have a Superman tattoo, but guess I'll have to cover it up if I go to Comic Con.

Fuck it, I'd get all their Characters tattooed on them to piss them off big time. But they can't stop me, can they?
It's just stupid.

This is far, far, far, far more useless than a war on drugs. Comparing the two is as ridiculous as DC attempting to do... whatever they're doing.

And yet, they can't do shit about it. They can C&D all they want, but they'll end up wasting more resources than they can afford.

Saw the title. Assumed it was about TNA and Sting.

Check the date on the article. A bit of research shows that it is more than likely an April Fool's Day prank a website came up with.

This^^^, fuck, just do a google search for this story, you'll wind up with the link that was given in this thread, followed by nothing but links to stories confirming this was just an april fools prank

DC are well within their rights to send a C&D to Tattoo shops if they advertise that they do DC character tattoos. Its all to do with the vagaries of IP law.

 

[Shadowmancer]

Yes I do understand that it is a hoax

 

[Chardee Macdennis]

Even if it wasn't fake, you'd figure they would've wanted the free publicity anyway right. I mean assuming it would've been real, it would've have been a pretty stupid PR move, no?

Did you hear they're making a Zelda movie? IGN showed a triler.
