** TheAbridgedSeries are not sold for money. That said, this comic uses original drawings, but with characters obviously built off of an existing property. I think copyright law is pretty fuzzy about this. Most companies would be very hesitant to press charges. If The Captain has a rockin' lawyer, he might be able to justify selling the comic for profit, but he probably doesn't. As long as he doesn't push their buttons, they won't push his.

* Captain Osaka's purge of the comic. As far as I'm aware, he's made no statements as to his rationale for deleting it, despite the fact of how beloved it is within the fanbase. Old shame, perhaps?
