Bad week for Marvel Comics. First, in the Second Circuit, Captain America creator Joseph Simon had his suit reinstated against Marvel, regarding the grant of the rights to Captain America. This decision involves questions of equitable estoppel and termination of grants under the 1909 Copyright Act. Next, Stan Lee sued Marvel, asking for a share of the profits from the Spiderman movie, and from the upcoming Daredevil movie (starring Ben AFLAC).
