Marvel sues over City of Heroes
According to a story written by the Associated Press today, Marvel Enterprises is suing South Korea-based NCsoft and San Jose-based Cryptic Studios over their MMORPG City of Heroes. Marvel claims that that the game allows players to create characters which are too similar to the Hulk, X-Men, and other heroes from their comic book series, violating their trademarks. Marvel is seeking unspecified damages and an injunction against the two companies to stop using its characters.
Sigh. Marvel suing over a lack of creativity. Guh.
