Studio Plug And Play Sued By Shogakukan Date: 3/7/2005 |
|
According to the post to www.studioplugnplay.com: BECAUSE OF OUR RECENT LEGAL TROUBLE WITH SHOGAKUKAN, INC. OVER ILLEGAL USE OF THEIR INUYASHA PROPERTY AND THE SUBSEQUENT FINE WE MUST PAY, STUDIO PLUG'N PLAY WILL NOT BE MAKING DOUJINSHI IN 2006. WE WILL FINISH OUR NEXT 5 BOOK SERIES OF WOLF'S RAIN AND OUR 5 BOOKS SERIES FOR TRIGUN. WE WILL MAKE OUR FINAL APPEARENCE AS A CIRCLE AT YAOICON IN 2005 AND USHICON IN 2006 - BUT WE WILL NO LONGER BE MAKING FANBOOKS AS OF 2006. WE HAVE ENJOYED MAKING THESE BOOKS TO TRADE WITH OTHER CIRCLES AND TO SELL TO FANS AND WE SO APPRECIATE THE POPULARITY YOU HAVE DELIVERED TO US. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND OUR LEGAL TROUBLES IS NOT WITH VIZ - THEY SIMPLY HOLD LICENSE - WE WERE CHARGED BY THE TRUE COPYRIGHT HOLDER SHOGAKUKAN, INC. ALL WE CAN SAY TO OTHER CIRCLES IS PLEASE BE CAREFUL. AS FOR THE STUDIO ITSELF - WE WILL STILL BE MAKING WORKS IN 2006 - ONLY THEY WILL BE PRO WORKS AND WE WILL GIVE YOU THE LINKS AS TO WHERE YOU CAN PURCHASE AS THEY ARE PUBLISHED. ^_^ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS - Studio Plug'n Play - 2005 |
