About this listen
The Librarian is joined by ThisOneSatellite, Rhyshka, and Iverna in the Confident Bedroom.
In this episode, we dive into the complex world of fan art, fan fiction, and the legal gray areas that come with them. While fan fiction is often accepted as long as it remains non-commercial, fan artists can face legal threats when trying to sell their work—especially from companies like Disney and Marvel, which closely guard their trademarks. We explore the fine line between creative freedom and copyright constraints, the pressures of turning passion into profit, and the impact commercialization can have on artistic enjoyment.
Join us as we break down the challenges of navigating intellectual property laws in fandom spaces, discuss whether clear boundaries exist between fan art and fan fiction, and examine the ethical dilemmas of monetizing fan work.
