It was something of a minor revelation, since I've always been militantly pro-creator ownership. It's always nice to hear something from the other side that causes you to re-evaluate your beliefs.<br /><br />I still believe that creator ownership is an obviously good thing, and the argument put forward in the book no longer applies, but now I think there are certain situations when there is a case for corporate ownership.<br /><br />That doesn't mean these cases are necessarily valid, they just got me thinking about the topic from a slightly different perspective.Bob Temukahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181473725170489213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5394310461939093453.post-5926557804090486742009-06-21T05:10:35.113+12:002009-06-21T05:10:35.113+12:00"There is even an argument against creator ow..."There is even an argument against creator ownership of their characters that makes some kind of sense, the first time I’ve ever seen that."<br /><br />I'd love to hear what this argument is. <br /><br />Glad you and the wife had such a nice trip.

(Plus, when I was looking up comic shops on the neta few months back, I saw something on the esteemed Mr Campbell's blog about her working there.)<br /><br />It's just such a random thing to recognise somebody from.
