		WWCC has a claim of ownership and equity in any intellectual property when an individual produces it as part of an assigned duty or with the substantial use of College resources, facilities, or funds except as provided in a written agreement.
		To protect the rights of the individual and the College, the ownership and equity of intellectual property developed after the approval of this procedure may be determined before an intellectual property is developed.
		Similarly, any equity or profit derived from the intellectual property may belong solely to the creator or shared with the College depending on the conditions in which the property was developed.

	SPLCenter.org: Mansfield v. Church of the Creator
		Prior to the conclusion of the case, the COTC transferred ownership of its headquarters to the late neo-Nazi leader William Pierce to keep it from falling into the hands of Mansfield's heirs.
		On May 17, 1991, a member of a white supremacist organization called the Church of the Creator murdered Navy Shipman Harold Mansfield, an African American sailor who served in the Gulf War.
		The "Church's" mission is to preach "Creativity," which asks its followers to "purify" the white race, eliminating "mud races" and Jews from the earth.

	SPLCenter.org: Creator Crack-Up
		In 1987, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted the foundation's request to copyright the name "Church of the Creator." After five years during which no contest was filed against its trademark, the foundation's ownership of it became legally "incontestable," even though Creators had used the phrase since COTC's founding in 1973.
		Hale took over what was then called the Church of the Creator in 1995, two years after its founder Ben Klassen, depressed over the death of his wife, committed suicide after several attempts to install a successor.
		On Jan. 8, the so-called "Pontifex Maximus" of the WCOTC was arrested in the federal courthouse in Chicago and charged with obstruction of justice and solicitation to murder a federal judge.

		A work not made for hire is protected for the life of the creator plus 70 years.
		However, there is an exception to the "creator is the owner" theory and this is when you are dealing with works "made for hire." If an item is considered a work "made for hire," then the requestor/employer, not the creator, is considered the owner/author.
		The majority of the time, the creator of the work is considered the owner with regards to copyright protection and reproduction.

	The Seven Seas Do-Over - 11/22/2005 - Publishers Weekly
		Although Seven Seas announced the acquisition of all three webcomics at the same time, Chugworth creator David Cheung is quick to point out that he was never offered a joint-ownership contract.
		It will depend how the project is developed." And, he says, "In any case, the message is that we're flexible and creator-friendly, and want to work with a wide variety of talent.
		But DeAngelis says he changed his mind because of both the debate over joint-ownership contracts and, unlike other works published by Seven Seas, because the webcomics were finished works.

	CATHOLIC LIBRARY: Laborem Exercens (1981)
		Relating herself to man, she seeks to express the eternal designs and transcendent destiny which the living God, the Creator and Redeemer, has linked with him.
		For man, created to God's image, received a mandate to subject to himself the earth and all that it contains, and to govern the world with justice and holiness; a mandate to relate himself and the totality of things to him who was to be acknowledged as the Lord and Creator of all.
		It has key importance both in the system built on the principle of private ownership of the means of production and also in the systems in which private ownership of these means has been limited even in a radical way.

	Intellectual Property
		Intellectual property that is already developed or under development at the time that an amendment to the policy is ratified will not be bound by the terms of the amendment without the voluntary written consent of both the creator and the university.
		If the intellectual property is created solely by a student or students, the creator is exempt from the obligation to pay to the university a fraction of his net proceeds, but not from the provision of this paragraph for a non-exclusive license to the university.
		This section states the policies concerning ownership of intellectual property created at the university.

	Building a Digital Library the Commons-based Peer Production Way
		While ownership is first assigned to the creator of an entry (strongly reminiscent of the "homesteading" method of acquiring property), the owner must adequately maintain the "property" of his or her entry to retain ownership (reminiscent of common law property rules, i.e., "use it or lose it").
		Ownership is only the beginning of how authority manifests in the Noosphere system to address the challenges of commons-based peer production.
		Noosphere has drawn heavily upon such concepts, as well as the concepts of democracy, anarchy, capital, currency, common law, and natural law to create a self-regulating "economy of ideas".

		* Code 6 Comics - Code 6 Comics is a new imprint under CrossGen created for the purpose of publishing non-CrossGen Universe continuity titles, such as new projects outside of the CrossGen stable of creators who are willing to share ownership of the project with Code 6 Comics.
		Code 6 Comics, CrossGen's independent comics imprint, is named for the Florida police signal code for "escaped prisoner." This is a hint at the imprint's primary purpose, which is to provide a friendly home for creator-developed projects which lack the funding for traditional self-publishing.
		Diamond has in the past been criticized for its business practices by independent creators, but their help and support in setting up CGE and in end result the Code 6 Comics imprint, proves Diamond's commitment to helping the independent creator, and will soon result in the publishing and marketing of some very fine comics."

		Nickerson: I spoke with Scott McCloud, and he maintains that the Bill really doesn’t benefit self-publishers all that much since when self-publishing, the creator(s) already have complete ownership and control of their work.
		Rick Veitch: I believe Scott McCloud wrote a rough draft and brought it with him to the Northampton Creator's Summit.
		Veitch: One of the accomplishments was that a group of cartoonists actually organized and came to agreement on something reasonably important.

		As to why he waited so long, DeCarlo has said it was on some bad advice he got years ago when he was told that stirring up the creator/ownership pot would be bad for him and blackball him in the industry.
		I'd say the damage had been done when the original creator (definition: the guy who MADE the freakin' thing!) was left out of the loop when plans were made to turn his work into a big screen film.
		It looks like Dan DeCarlo didn't have much concern about trying to claim the rights to Josie before the movie, which could be understandable.

		It was back in 2002 that Oleg Kuvaev transferred rights of ownership to the "Masyanya" studio, which was operating under the management of producer Grigoriy Zorin.

	Marvel's Work Made For Hire contract for Epic Comics
		Exhibit A spells this concept out more explicitly, but the gist of WMFH is that the legal "creator" of the work is the company, and you're just one of the cogs in the creative machinery of that company, with no ownership of the work you do for them.
		If you can't agree to the WMFH contract, you might consider instead pitching the story (without Marvel characters or MU elements) to Epic as a creator-owned proposal.
		Because you (the writer who proposed it) are the one Marvel is paying, you're responsible for getting the artists working for you to agree that this is "work made for hire" like in paragraph 2.b, and you all agree not to challenge that.

		I'm a few days late by now, but you need to read Newsarama's interview with Warren Ellis, in which he discusses, among other things, his upcoming creator-owned limited series (DOWN and RED), creator ownership, format, decompressed storytelling, and heroes in Ellis' stories.
		And, in October:Minotaur Press gets DOWN with a new series by two of the most respected creators in comics.
		And while Michael Avon Oeming, Frank Quitely/Trevor Scott, Eduardo Risso, P. Craig Russell, and J.H. Williams III are certainly very worthy nominees in the Best Penciller/Inker or Penciller/Inker Team category, it's absolutely criminal that John Cassaday and Bryan Hitch/Paul Neary were shut out of that category.
