2000ad suspected IP infringement thread

[Grant Goggans]

It's honestly not really IP infringement, but has anybody read the latest Martin Amis novel?  It's pretty much "Big Dave Wins the Lottery," with the same ugly satire of Sun/celebrity culture, even down to the two attack dogs.  Only real differences are that it's set in London and not Manchester, and Big Dave didn't need make-believe celebrities for the hero to bed.

Funnilly enough though, it's loosley based on the story of Michael Carroll - no, not that one!

[Professor Bear]

From Marvel's Avengers Arena - a comic whose first promotional image was the poster for Battle Royale with Marvel characters in place of the movie cast and which has featured the writer and artists in every single promotional interview ever since reinforcing that there is nothing original about the plot and all the characters are "archetypes" - a suspiciously familiar-looking barbarian with a big axe is a regular character.

Not an IP steal necessarily but an art theft that's bugging me - where's the head pinched from?

That weird Dredd sculpture(?) that always seems to come up in Gopgle Images.
