Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips Comic Books?
Bleeding Cool loves to trawl around the trademark registry. It's where we found the new DC logo, Valiant's attempts to trademark their character Livewire (possibly in in case the Black Widow Project Livewire bike from the next Avengers movie sticks), and recently something from Mark Millar called Chrononauts. NYCC announcement maybe?
Anyway, there are some folk that don't so much register trademarks for comics, but just include comics in a list of things they might make.
Such as Gordon Ramsay applying to register the phrase Gordon Ramsay Fish And Chips as a trademark for the following sectors;

So I don't expect comics is high on his list. But it is on his list.
Back in May it was rumoured that he was going to set up Gordon Ramsay Fish And Chips at the Linq in Las Vegas.
Whether related comic books – or indeed paper weights – wll be on sale, we have yet to learn.
