Riverdale Lawsuits

As strange...



...as Jughead Jones's use for his hat.

I was randomly reading stuff on Wikipedia when I got linked to the wiki page of Archie Comics. And I was quite baffled by the number of lawsuits the management/owners of the publication have done over retaining full rights/exclusivitiy to anything and everything Archie. But to sue the poprock band The Veronicas for alleged trademark infringement and to stop fan bases from forming? Really now. I'm actually an Archie Comics fan and I have been thinking of creating a fan art, but reading the lawsuits, I don't think it's a good idea.

Read the rest of the lawsuits here. I just hope I'm wrong.
