Okay, since everyone else is offering observations on IP, let me just say this...
100% of the writers you love became writers because they loved somebody else& #39;s IP.
Maybe it was the original work of one creator. Maybe it was a group effort. But it was always someone else& #39;s IP.

Spider-Man? Star Wars? The works of Stephen King or Anne Rice or Piers Anthony? That& #39;s all IP.
We became writers & #39;cause we loved somebody& #39;s IP. So& #39;s it really that shocking that--if we& #39;re given the chance--we want to do something with said property? To tell OUR stories with it?

I can say with absolute certainty I& #39;m writing today because of Star Wars, John Carter of Mars, Spider-Man, Machine Man, and the collected toy adaptations of Bill Mantlo. No question 99% of you would have no idea who I was if not for those IPs influencing me as a kid. I LOVED THEM
And like so many people, if I got a chance to write a Star Wars story, a Spider-Man story, a Machine Man story, a Transformers story, or the three six issue issue arcs I planned out for Rom Spaceknight, you& #39;d better believe all that love and passion would go into that IP.
