can I use your fighter and black mage from 8-bit?

[Lord vega]

Hi I like to ask I can use fighter and black mage for my comic. If you like to now what do they do then pm me ok.

[CHICAGO¤lollie]

I don't know about you lot, but I think the general answer's gonna be No.

Unless it's some kind of one-time fan comic. Or a cameo of sorts. And if you clearly state that, while the original character are property of Square Enix, the Fighter and Black Mage that we all know and love (or love to hate) belong to Brian Clevinger.

And if you don't make money from it. I could probably go on and on with this, but I'm no full-time comic making crazy person. Guy.

Well, here's the thing about Fighter, BM, RM, Thief, WM, BB, Garland, Princess Sara, Lich, Kary, Kraken, Bikke, and any other originally-from-Final-Fantasy-characters:

They aren't Brian's. You don't ask him for permission. They belong to Square-Enix. Unless you're using Drizz'l, Akbar, Jeff, or Vilbert (That one is a tad iffy, since it's the Vampire given name)... Those're Brian's creations, and you likely won't be given leave to use them.

If you're asking to use their personalities, that's a definate NO!!

Well, I figure if Square-Enix has been nice enough to let me do my little comic based on their work I ought to extend the courtesy to others.

Well I do have to ask if I want to use the fighter and blavk mage that was made for 8-bit. Its just like this Samus yells stop the moive. Shadow ask what is going on. She wants all the pirates that was used for the moive that she is watching and to let her kill them. Shadow is the dicture so no. Fighter comes in and say's i agree with her they need to die...Can I tell you about my sword idea? He go's on and on and Samus say's why me!
BM plays as the mage in the moive but it do's not look like him at all but to get to the point Bm ask if he can kill both of them so they can play the moive. Bm use his attack thing sorry I forgot the name of it and blows up the theater! shadow ask why did you did you almost killed us all? Bm say's So what they are dead now. Shadow can't kill him so my guy come in and send's him to a blank stip and he say's this is not so bad. Then he is surranded by 500 fighters. That is what I need them for.

It's Hadoken. I think you can use them, they're just one-strip hits, I suppose. Add in the bottom that you do not own anything and that the FF characters are spinoffs off Brian's work.

[Dr.GoldenClaw]

I can imagine this would be frowned upon if you took their personalities and all. But just the bare concept of Black Mage and Fighter? I'm sure you could get away with that.

I like how people seem to be answering for Brian, and no one appears to have actually read the post made by him.

(Brian is Kurosen right?)

[Gumpy]

Oh, the irony

[TheI3rokenspiral]

Post away and forget to read the post made by the person the question was aimed toward....

[Lord vega]

Bm and fighter will any make a one time appence ok.

[HigherFat]

How bout this, forget making a comic, and squabbling about who made this and who copyrighted that. Instead turn your efforts into learning the english language, it is for the good of making understanding communication to the others of world. If that doesnt tickle your fancy then just steal everything and do as you please with it, who would be so mean to actually throw a copyright fit about a silly little joke?

[Lord vega]

.................. I WORK TOO HARD ON THE STORY FOR THE COMIC TO STOP CAUSE SOMEBODY SAY'S SO! I WILL MAKE THIS COMIC AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME FROM DOING SO GOT THAT! Oh sorry about that I guess I lost my temper there. I'm sorry about that but please understand cause I will not stop the comic idea just cause you said so ok?

[Prince of Goon]

(Brian is Kurosen right?)
Right.

[Lord vega]

Someone just tell me if it is a yes or a no.

[cobraR478]

He told you yes on May 2nd. :) Look at Kurosen's post.

[Mashirosen]

Jesus Christ. CLOSING FOR MASSIVE SPAMMAGE. Be thankful I'm busy today or everyone in this thread who isn't Brian would be getting a warning.

Lord vega, Brian said yes, you can use the characters. Now go do it.
