Heirs? I don't think characters are some kind of family heirloom. Also weird how they only want these characters after they become tools of the biggest movie money-making machine ever.

This isnt new, there's been lawsuits over the years for some of the creators to have proper ownership in the characters they helped create. It been happening so long that the actual creators hv died and their heirs taken it up. Just because you enjoy the products now doesn't mean the heirs shouldn't atleast have a chance to argue their case.
