A few people have pointed out some legal possibilities here, and I thought I'd fill in some blanks, having just completed a few IP classes in lawschool. One, someone could sue Lee for copyright infringement if they think one of his designs is a copy (...) (20 years ago, 14-Dec-04, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, FTX)
