Lawyers get creative in sending copyright notices
Kill all the lawyers?
It has always been an age old notion – Lawyers = Ditto heads. Well, actually not, maybe there might be an element of jealousy creeping in from the normal masses for the amount of wealth amassed by the lawyer fraternity however the nobody wants them to accept them truly as a part of the “Creative class”, well accept “Richard Florida”. The adjacent image however proves that Lawyers are indeed turning creative to give a soothing effect to the harsh legal notices. This one being issued by the law department of Marvel comics to maybe a website airing their comics. Truly amazing, The website owners must truly have been struck with an element of awe after checking out the characters who might be saying, “Hey, we belong to our Daddy Marvel”. I wonder how the copyright notice of “Playboy, Inc” would look…
