Marvel sues to keep Spider-Man and X-Men copyrights
Marvel Worldwide Inc filed a Manhattan federal suit to invalidate 45 notices by artist Jack Kirby heirs claiming rights to characters like Spider-Man and the X-Men revert 2014 to 2019. The suit says Kirby’s 1958 1963 work was for hire, keeping rights with Marvel. Kirby heirs' attorney Marc Toberoff declined comment. Marvel lawyer John Turitzin called the claims an attempt to rewrite history.
