Attorneys vs Historians 2: Howard the Duck Cease and Desist with Alex Grand & Jim Thompson
A very special podcast, Alex Grand and lawyer/panel originator Jim Thompson, team up with attorney Daniel Barer, and entertainment law professor Marc Greenberg at San Diego Comic Con 2019 Comics Art Conference to discuss how Cease and Desist changes the narrative of stories in the comics world using examples from the late 1970s to early 1980s, Steve Gerber's Howard the Duck, Destroyer Duck and Dave Sim's Cerberus. How is Jim Shooter involved in all three cases? how does this relate to Spider-Ham? what about that odd Howard the Duck appearance at the end of the Guardian's of the Galaxy movie? Does any of this change the price of custard in china? Edited & Produced by Alex Grand. Images used in artwork ©Their Respective Copyright holders, CBH Podcast ©Comic Book Historians.
