Marvel Vs Anyone With Marvel In Their Name…
Marvel aren't quite as trigger happy DC Comics over challenging the registration of trademarks right now – and seem to be the subject of cases more than they are instigators.
But they are challenging Tony Tune for registering the name "Marvelasy" as a trademark for
Large toy building blocks; Toy building blocks, which can be connected to each other; Toy building blocks; plush toys; Apparatus for electronic games other than those adapted for use with an external display screen or monitor; Intelligent toys, namely, battery-powered computer game with LCD screen which features animation and sound effects; jigsaw puzzles; chess sets; ornaments for Christmas trees, except illumination articles and confectionery
They are also challenging the TechFusion Corporation for registering the name "Marvelcoupon" for
Providing coupons, rebates and vouchers for promoting the sales of groceries of others, using downloadable software applications downloaded onto portable computer devices connected via a global computer network
And, quite naturally, they are targeting IGG Singapore PTE for their superhero app game Marble Heroes….
It should still be a marvellous new year for lawyers… but when will they go after these scamsters?
