Amazon is monetizing fan fiction

IP owners sign an agreement with Amazon.
Amazon announces to fan writers that the IPs are available for this service.
Fan authors create fanfiction and publish it in a new branch of the Kindle store (Kindle Worlds).
Other fans buy the fan fiction (with money).
Amazon pays royalties to the fan author and the copyright holder.

Amazon Publishing has secured licenses from Warner Bros. Television Group’s Alloy Entertainment division for its New York Times best-selling book series Gossip Girl, by Cecily von Ziegesar; Pretty Little Liars, by Sara Shepard; and Vampire Diaries, by L.J. Smith; and plans to announce more licenses soon.

The Child Labored Justice League in a 3rd World Pinas

I started to sketch these guys on a Labor Day Holiday, without any labor day theme in mind. I actually want to draw a pinoy version of of Justice League to have something new on May 4th for Free Comics Book Day. As I started to draw Batman (I always start with Batman because I’m a HUGE Batman fan) I imagined him wearing a plastic bag as a cowl, then the idea hits me to a what if they we’re child labored kids with aspiration ofbeing a superhero, them having inspiration from JL. and I enjoyed making it.

Batman BakalBote

Superman Kargador

Wonder Woman SampaguitaGirl

Aquaman Maninisid

So, guys, if you find yourself wanting to compliment a random woman you do not know and who is not asking for your opinion, ask yourself this: why does your opinion on her appearance matter? Why do you absolutely need to express that opinion, even knowing that it might make her uncomfortable? Why is it her responsibility to deal with that potential discomfort or “get over it,” not your responsibility to keep your opinions to yourself unless they are relevant or solicited? And, most importantly–if complimenting people matters so much to you, why not compliment a female friend who knows and trusts you? Hell, why not compliment another man?
