Sehr geehrter Herr Noerdman,
gemäß des Übereinkommens zwischen dem Deutschen Reich und den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika über den gegenseitigen Schutz der Urheberrechte vom 15. Januar 1892 erfahren US-amerikanische Werke die Inländerbehandlung in Deutschland. Folglich erlischt deren Urheberrecht nicht bereits 95 Jahre nach Erschaffung, sondern erst 70 Jahre nach Tod des am längsten lebenden Urhebers (§65 UrhG).
Da Ub Iwerks, zweiter Regisseur und Urheber von „Steamboat Willie“, am 7. Juli 1971 verstarb, erlischt das Urheberrecht für dieses Werk in Deutschland erst am 1. Januar 2042.
Bitte entfernen Sie diesen Beitrag somit umgehend, anderweitig können rechtliche Konsequenzen folgen.

Maxh doch nicht die Arbeit der Anwälte von den Megacorps. Aber trotzdem interessant
I don’t get it 😓
The glove joke is that only Steamboat Willie is in the public domain. Wearing the gloves makes him Mickey Mouse, which is why he should absolutely not wear them as his copyright hasn’t expired.
The other doors look like Donald Duck, Superman, and I guess James Bond? I assume their copyright expirations are coming soon—in that order.
Similar to Micky not wearing gloves, Superman wouldn’t be able to fly, be vulnerable to kryptonite, wouldn’t have heat vision, freeze breath, or the fortress of solitude. Pretty much all the iconic villains would be off limits too.
Yup, not at first. Mickey’s gloves are actually a great example as they come into public domain this year as the first film where he wears those comes up next. (IIRC, INAL, don’t go violating copyright law based on a comment on the interwebs.)

Who’s gonna stop me?
Mickey Mouse himself. I heard he’s like a ruthless mafia boss.
I don’t really either. Mickey mouse is now PD, and I assume the other guy (no idea who he is) is too? And daffy duck, someone else and James bond will also become PD soon. Mickey with gloves is still copyrighted, so he can’t wear the gloves.
The other guy is the main character of the artist’s comic. He’s just visiting the land of public domain.
Or he is directly publishing his comics into the PD
Hopefully something will be done to extend the copyright of Superman and James Bond. I’d hate for them to be public domain.
Hey, what’s that middle door? I don’t think Trogdor is becoming public domain anytime soon
Superman methinks
The public is my domain to burninate! 🔥
When Supes hits the public domain I’m inverting his character by making him MAGA. Fly the rot in everyone’s faces.
You’re more likely to be sued by the thousands of people that have beaten you to that particular punch at that point.
Amazon would probably be first in line, which is kinda weird if you think about it.
you just invented Homelander from “The Boys”
Evil Superman has been done to death and it’s not interesting or edgy anymore.
It’s just dumb.
Yeah but it hasn’t been done where superman is just deporting all these people using his super speed, taking medicines from the cabinets of single African mothers using his flight. I think it would be effective in showing the effects of csncelling USAID and everything else the administration is doing. Hell, do it in golden age comic style for extra points as trump wants to return to that age but not do anything those presidents did.
So instead of Supply Side Jesus, it’ll be Supply Side Superman?
Yeah,paint the ridiculousness of their actions. Have supply side Jesus come in and thank him at the end just like the classics
It almost feels like we’ve come up with a goldmine of an idea for an artist lol.
Red Son was pretty close.
Evil Superman is boring and done to death.
Evil Batman is much more suitable for the times
Put Steamboat Willie into Cuphead, cowards.
