This is the part people are skipping over. How many times has iceman been used in marketing materials promoting the nba, Nike (before players got a percentage of royalties, mind you), the spurs or gervin himself? And NO ONE got that man a trademark? THATS who Gervin should be pissed at.

But now because Caleb has his shyt in order it’s a question of what’s right? History was literally repeating itself with all the iceman marketing this past season. Didn’t hear anyone complaining then. Props to Caleb for saying “nuh uh.”

Stop letting these people make money off your brand while you get pennies, and take control of what your work has delivered you.
You said all this for nothing.

I know you think this is something breh. It’s marketing. They are trying to make us call him Iceman. I’m telling you, no one does breh. Trust me. You didn’t hear a single fan calling him that. And you will only hear Bears employees (announcers) saying it.

I was today years old when I found out that Caleb calls himself I guess Iceman :leon:

Also, I don’t understand how you can trademark a name from a famous movie/comic

ICEMAN DIDNT HAVE
ANY COMICS NOR MERCH
IN THE 60S-70S.

THE COMIC HE WAS IN
WAS THE XMEN.

XMEN IS THE TRADEMARK.

YOU CANT TRADEMARK THE NAMES
OF CHARACTERS IN A BOOK.

BY THE TIME ICEMAN
GOT HIS OWN COMIC OR MERCH
GERVIN HAD ESTABLISHED THE TRADEMARK
:devil:
:evil:

The article says that Gervin filed his trademark after Caleb Williams :dahell:

And it also seems as if Marvel does indeed own the trademark to Iceman in certain categories and like you said it wasn't from the 60s but from 2017.

Apparently there's 100s or 1000s of Iceman-type TMs.
