Comic Book on Copyright and Creativity

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Tuesday March 14, 2006 @04:46PM from the funny-and-yet-not-so-funny dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Three law professors have written a comic book on copyright and creativity -- focusing on the effects of expanding rights and restrictive licensing on documentary film. The book is available for free online via the creative commons license. High points include Larry Lessig as the Statue of Liberty, a version of the Crypt Keeper who looks like Justice Rehnquist, and comic book riffs from the Silver Surfer. At the end, the book discusses the 'cultural environmentalism' movement which has been getting some attention recently."

Oh my god. Unlike you, I am all for indoctrinating our nation's children in the ways and methodologies of godless communism. But quiche? They go too far.

a version of the Crypt Keeper who looks like Justice Rehnquist,

I imagine that Rehnquist looks a bit like the Crypt Keeper too right about now.
