Our New epoch does n’t just celebrate story about gods and demi - Supreme Being — we have a whole host of new mythological figures that we obsess about , from Luke Skywalker to Superman to Captain Kirk . But who owns these fable ?
We decided to find out .

We ’ve compose a chart , to the effective of our power , showing the corporate ownership of our forward-looking mythology , and here it is :
As always , click to magnify , or right - click and select “ clear link in newfangled tab . ”
A few caveats apply . We established the current ownership , or investing in , property , to the practiced of our noesis . In the eccentric of movie right , options do expire , and output deals may be only for a especial project . Twentieth Century Fox has been a co - production partner in the live - action Star Wars motion-picture show , but may not own any right to Star Wars beyond those picture show . Obviously , the truth of who have what is always problematic and capable to reams of contractual speech , which we do n’t have at our fingertips . So this is our best guess as to which corp have a bet in our forward-looking folklore .
