Well it seems that two of my younger brothers are famous here in the digital world. Or more famous.

[attached, recordings of a TV show called... Megadude Z and Xerox. It's kind of corny, but very well drawn in fact Megadude Z and Xerox look really familiar.]

I think I'm gonna buy the toys if they make any.

Is that who I think it is?

If you're thinking that it's X and Zero?

You'd be right.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Want me to get you one of the toys if I find any?

I give it one season.

If that.

proto_strike January 12 2009, 07:32:25 UTC

I dunno, Zero.

If you guys keep having epic fights I don't think they'll run out of materials.

...this is a good point.

...still, there has to be some law about basing this off us by not PAYING us.

Actually, this is a rather common issue that plagues new heroes in my world that don't read the information that they're given with their registration with the city.

That is to say, if you haven't registered your likeness with a trademark office, you're fair game. An enterprising company can (and has) seized your likeness for their own production. In MY world, the companies that do this generally set aside paltry royalty checks for the hero, and if those checks aren't claimed, they're donated to whatever charity the accountants want to toss them to. And since they're under no obligation to notify the hero that these checks exist (or to even pay them in the first place), it's really no skin off their backs and a nice little tax writeoff.

In other words... You might want to get your butt over to Neon City and get yourself an agent to represent your interests. Oh, and hope that the news has been giving you enough coverage to prove that you're a publicly identifiable figure.

Hey it could be worse.

They could've drawn X, I mean Megadude Z, as some muscle bound jerk.

pink_navig8r January 12 2009, 07:43:26 UTC

... Next you'll tell me he'd also be indiscriminately violent.

proto_strike January 12 2009, 07:53:51 UTC

He could be, and claim it all in the name of justice! Or something lame like that.

Not 'nuff explosions.

proto_strike January 12 2009, 08:26:50 UTC

It's only the first episode, things might pick up later.

Oh you've gotta be kidding me.

proto_strike January 13 2009, 06:32:32 UTC

I don't kid, X.

variabletamer January 13 2009, 06:41:36 UTC

This kind of thing was bad enough back home... And they're not even paying us here.

You don't think this show will catch on, do you?

Who's making it anyway?

proto_strike January 13 2009, 06:42:54 UTC

Oh it makes me so glad I stay out of the limelight~.

It might, I like it!

Hm, I dunno. Someone in Neon I guess?
