The Aquaman Shrine Goes Viral, Ctd.

sg
Well, I guess The Aquaman Shrine really has "made it" because now someone has taken my Aquaman BP cover and made it into a bootlegged t-shirt, violating all sorts of copyrights!

Not only is it wrong to steal someone's idea for personal financial gain, but the end product won't even be any good--the bootleggers don't have access to anything but a low-res version of the cover, resulting in a fuzzy, crappy looking shirt, a fact any buyer won't realize until their shirt arrives in the mail.

That sucks! And yeah, from past experience with my kids getting tees from the web, it isn't gonna look anything like that. Or last very long.

Terrible. You think DC would stop this since he is making a profit on the image.

I reported it to ebay, but the auction is still up. It says there have been 4 sold so far...

I came across this at Comic Alliance. Sucks about the eBay guy, but you did a great job.

For those asking, yea, it was Neal Adams. He did quite a few covers Aquaman covers.
