\n It looks like Marvel won\u2019t be bringing its battle over the rights to Spider-Man and Doctor Strange into the new year. Attorneys for the company and the estate of Steve Ditko on Wednesday notified the court that they\u2019ve reached an amicable settlement and expect a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice to be filed in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

\n This all started back in 2021 when Marvel filed\u00a0a series<\/a> of lawsuits\u00a0in response to copyright termination notices from Larry Lieber and the estates of Gene Colan, Steve Ditko, Don Heck and Don Rico. A very long list of characters were at issue including Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow, Hulk and Thor. In June, all but one of the matters settled.<\/p>\n

\n The last remaining dispute was with the heirs of Ditko, who co-created Spider-Man and Doctor Strange. According to\u00a0that termination notice<\/a>,\u00a0the estate wanted to reclaim rights from comics including Amazing Fantasy<\/em>\u00a0(including Spider-Man\u2019s 1962 debut) and\u00a0Strange Tales<\/em>\u00a0(including Doctor Strange\u2019s first app<\/a>earance in 1963). In addition to the art and stories themselves, the termination notices also targeted \u201cany character, story element, or indicia reasonably associated with the Works.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Marvel was represented by Dan Petrocelli and Molly Lens of O\u2019Melveny, and Patrick Ditko was represented by Marc Toberoff. Neither party has responded to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
