Interesting Copyright Lawsuit

Mike Tyson tattoo artist sues movie company.

Most interesting part of it-
"It's an interesting lawsuit. Copyrighted works are copyrighted works, no matter whether they are painted on canvases or walls or the bodies of former heavyweight champions. Whitmill attaches to the lawsuit his copyright registration for the "Original Tattoo," as well as Tyson's signed release granting rights in the work. (He also includes some photos of himself with the boxer while applying the tattoo in 2003 in Las Vegas.)"

->> I find this one truly fascinating...I am eager to look into it simply because I can't come to a conclusion without getting lost in circular reasoning.

...but the cynic in me thinks the brilliance/failure of the endeavor might be more closely connected to the final paragraph than the underlying topic itself.
