>>138730162You know, this is exactly the thing I hate about the whole Penders deal with Shade... he is not only stealing her through some bullshit legal stunt, he also claims she was "Julie-Su all along", out of pure sheer pettiness.
I get it, you are mad because some EA hacks based a character on one of yours, and surprise, surprise, character turned out to be (arguably) more well received than yours. But does that give you the right to take the design and name, and act as if you created the "derivative".
Even if it was part of the settlement (which I find hard to believe, considering Shade was part of the EA lawsuit, not the Archie one)... this feels exactly as if DC, after they won the Captain Marvel (aka Shazam!) Lawsuit, would have dressed Superman in a red costume, change his emblem for a lighting bolt and claim he went by the name Captain Marvel for a certain time.
Seriously, the whole thing he has with Shade is nothing but a man child's temper tantrum. Pure pettiness.
