Main Topic:

Public Domain: The Franchise of Nerd

If you created a character people loved, would you want that character to eventually belong to the world? Or should creators and their families be able to control their work forever?

Debate Starter:

Is public domain good for culture, or bad for creators? How do you guys feel about this?

Question 1:

If you created the next legendary character, would you be okay with people using it freely 100 years from now?

Question 2:

Do we actually care about old public domain characters because they matter, or do we only care when someone makes a new version that hits?
