Or you can quietly host them, with appropriate copyright/trademark notices, and hope they'll never care. That's what I'm doing with Rom, Spaceknight Revisited (http://home.hiwaay.net/~lkseitz/comics/Rom/). Of course, that's a special situation because Marvel doesn't own the character and Hasbro, the owner, isn't doing anything with it. My page is maintaining brand awareness (yeah, right) in case they *do* decide to do something. So *then* I'll get the cease and desist. 8) -- Lee K.
