Wildstorm Comics Copyrights[edit]

Hi H\how can I know which of the subject of the articles in WIkipedia is owned by whom. For ex., for the "The Planetary" article it does not contain who owns those works (whether Warren Ellis or DC) under the article. My question is just who owns "The Planetary?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.93.197.164 (talk) 06:05, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That would be determined by whatever legal agreements exist between Wildstorm, the comic books' authors, and possibly other parties too. Usually these contracts are confidential, and sometimes they're quite complicated. Occasionally (as, for example, in the case of Zenith) there can be disputes over who owns what and who did or didn't buy what from whom, problems that sometimes have to be solved by arbitration or court action. Your first port of call would be Wildstorm's legal department. -- Finlay McWalterTalk 23:01, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Star Wars, Equal use of the Force and the Darkside Character[edit]

Besides THE FATHER in the MORTIS episode(s)_Clone Wars, and AnakinSkywalker/DarthVader, is there a list of and/or closest to said description of Force/DarkUsers with 50/50 ratio of use in the force and the darkside in the known Galaxy? I figure THE FATHER fits this category perfectly, and Anakin/Vader fits in sense of his lifespan, first using the force, then the Darkside. Any other characters come to mind?
