Kickstarter.

Hi everyone. My Tinkerbell Comic is the most popular art Ive done. I'm throwing around the idea for a kickstarter for creating a entire series. I have seen Rule 34 art on Kickstarter before. This guy is doing it with comic characters..https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/67830803/shades-rule34-megazine-vol-3-nsfw-artbook Im sure there is a interest in this..And I SO wanna do it. However it takes considerable time to create 20+ pages. However Im afraid I couldn't get around Disney copyright. (Im not sure how that guy does with marvel and dc.) Anyone knowledgeable on this subject. Could I create a Kickstarter for the Tink comic?

I've been a fan since finding you on Deviantart, the Tink comic was my favorite series.

Thanks!..Stay tuned.

Exactly. Even though Wizard of Oz is open source, I cant make a new movie that uses MGM's version of it.

Disney doesn’t own the copyright on Tinker Bell, but they do own the copyright on their version of Tinker Bell. Plus they own the Copyright on the whole “Disney Fairies” line.

I think your art is good enough to get a kickstarter going, there's just the issue of copyright infringement. I've heard that if you change something even 10% the copyright owner cannot sue you, but I don't know the truth behind this. In any event, I would love to see that Tinkerbell comic done!

This is what allowed Alan Moore to use Wendy in “Lost Girls” comic, this sets a bit of precedent for using Tink. The rest of the fairies are newer disney creations, but could be used under fair use rules in the United States. Note I said “could”. All copyright and fair use determination is an exercise in risk assessment.

A few things, Disney does not own Tinker bell. Tink is part and parcel of the Peter Pan play and novel by JM Barrie. Barrie originally left his copyright to a children’s hospital in the UK. Also there is a special law that protect just this work. In the US, we do not recognize this British law so the book is in the public domain.

So, the reason this guy is getting away with doing Marvel and DC characters is that they haven't noticed him yet. In general, Marvel/DC turn a blind-eye to guys who sell sketches/pictures at cons is because it helps fuel the community and lets them identify new talent. They immediately clamp down once someone tries to sell something commercially (such as t-shirts or similar). From what I know of Disney, they would come after you ASAP once they found out about a comic project (Adult or not). Disney does not fool around with that sort of thing. If you truly wanted to do a Kickstarter, I would label it as an 'adult comic,' but not mention any of the characters by name and only provide sample images. That way, there's little chance of Disney catching it via a basic search. You're still in hot water if they find it, but you're at least making it more difficult. I know a bit about the independent comic scene, so shoot me a message if you'd like to talk :)
