Yeah, I think you're likely to end up with, like, a toy that says "DC's ULTRAMAN" or something.
From my armchair analysis/not-great-memory of how similar trademark cases have developed, it has more to do with who's using the name more prominently, and what specific trademarks that company secured. I don't recall ever seeing an Ultraman-branded comic from DC, so (despite debuting their Ultraman character in comics two years prior to the toku character debuting in Japan) Marvel and Tsuburaya are probably on sturdier ground defending a trademark case. As it is, with Ultraman-DC maybe showing up in two or three comics a year, and never as the title character, I think DC's okay not fighting this one out in court. It could go their way in the U.S. (DC got there first), but there's just no financial upside.

He's an Evil Superman at a company obsessed with the idea of Evil Supermans. I'm surprised he doesn't show up more!

Random Tangent, I wonder what Swamp Thing by Darwyn Cooke would have been like.

Speaking of Ultraman, I honestly wish DC did got the rights to Ultraman. Ultraman vs. Ultraman would be fun and interesting to see.

If that ever was a thing I picture it not as some grandiose fisticuffs but rather a podcast-length debate amongst each other at a pub.

Hell the closest thing Ultraman was related to DC was that Uotra Galaxy Legend the Movie was produced by WB Japan, so the teen in me at the time fantasize Tsuburaya would collab with Warner Bros to help bring Ultraman worldwide and includes the characters into the DC universe.

So I have been reading Batman again these days, Ghost Maker is interesting. Clownhunter feels like either the next-gen Red Hood in the making or a potential new addition to Batman's rogue gallery.

After all this time, this can't be a new question, but...
Is there an official viewing order for the Arrowverse? A way to follow each show so one won't get lost during crossovers! |
